Meet your pet sitter
Hi, I'm Karen – lifelong pet lover, and the heart behind Tiny Paws RMV! I’ve spent over 10 years working in professional office management, but my true passion has always been caring for animals. I have my B.A in Journalism and MS in Business Management & Leadership. After years of dog sitting part-time for friends and neighbors, I decided to turn that love into a full-time adventure right here in Rancho Mission Viejo.
I specialize in caring for small and extra-small dogs who thrive in a calm, cozy, and safe environment. I understand that every pup has their own quirks and comforts, and I take pride in giving each guest one-on-one attention, plenty of snuggles, and a stress-free experience.
As a naturally shy but detail-oriented person, I approach pet care with both gentleness and professionalism. Your fur baby will be treated like family—with love, patience, and lots of playtime.
Let’s set up a meet-and-greet so you can see the Tiny Paws RMV difference for yourself!
