About Karen

Hi there, my name is Karen and I'm a resident in Ballsbridge. I absolutely adore dogs and knowing how hard it is to find a dog walker/sitter, I have decided to help out if I can 😊

I have previously minded dogs, either by house sitting or just popping in for regular walks & feeding if your doggy just doesn't like to be on their own for too long. For example, you know know you'll be home late from work, and want to know your doggies will have been taken care of. The precious fur babies can't be on their own for too long!

I am more than happy to come and meet your dog with you beforehand to make sure I know their needs/any rules. I will usually always share some photos & videos during your time away. If there is anything else, just let me know!

I have a Jack Russell called Gus and a Schnoodle called Totty, both are well socialised and love other dogs & people.

I will not sit for German Sheppherds unfortunately due to an incident with previous reactive dog.

Doggy Day Care
Darragh, 2024-07-10

Eve had her first experience of Doggy Day Care with Karen and we can't thank Karen enough for making it so much fun. Eve got on great with Karen's lovely dogs and Karen obviously has a special way with animals. Karen made light of the challenge she had with Eve dealing with her initial separation anxiety and kept me updated with photos and messages all day. We really appreciate Karen providing Eve with a home away from home.
