I'll treat your dog like my own!
Pet care experience
I'm a dog lover and medical student, and have had a dog in my home my whole life. I’ve been dog sitting on Rover for more than 5 years and now offer dog walking or drop in visits only. I’m comfortable administering a variety of medications and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I will make sure that your pet has a great time and gets lots of love and exercise!
Reviews
We had an awesome first experience with Kate! She stayed at our house with our pup, Winnie, for a full week and was absolutely wonderful. Winnie has some anxiety and my husband and I also have some anxiety when it comes to leaving her. Kate has experience with anxious dogs and we could tell from the moment we met her that she would be a calming presence and would know how to take care of Winnie. She sent us updates and photos every day, which gave us peace of mind on our vacation. Winnie tends to shy away from most people, but it was clear that she really loved Kate and was comfortable with her. She also left our house incredibly clean and was very conscientious. We will definitely be using Kate again and highly recommend her!
Kate sat for my 2 bulldogs in my home this last week. She is really great and we have already booked her again. One of my dogs requires daily eye meds as well as grooming and she made sure that was taken care of. I received lots of text updates as well as pictures and she was very responsive to my texts. I am so happy to have someone that I can trust so that I don't have to worry when I am away.
Another successful in home stay with Kate. My senior dog is on multiple daily medications which Kate administered like a pro. Received daily communication which allowed me to enjoy my vacation and time away from my baby. Thanks Kate!
Kate was reliable, professional, and attentive. She tended to all my dog's long list of care instructions and provided me with updates throughout the stay. I've already booked her again and would highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment
*not offering boarding services at this time* Drop in visits or walks will be discussed ahead of time so that I can get to know you and your dog and be aware of any safety concerns or quirks your dog might have.
Information Kate K. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know if the dog gets along with other dogs, what their exercise needs are, any allergies or medications, etc. Other than that, I'd want to make sure I know your dog's schedule (walks, bathroom, feeding, bedtime, etc), and anything else you feel is important for your dog to feel happy and comfortable during his/her stay! I love all dogs - big and small!
A typical day
Your dog will get to enjoy his or her regular routine -Let me know if there are any particular walking routes, parks, or anything else they enjoy. If your dog needs lots of exercise, I can take them on runs, spend afternoons at the park, or whatever they need! And for couch potatoes, I'm happy to just take them on their shorter walks and give them some quality company the rest of the day.
Services

Availability
I am available for dog walking or drop in visits during the middle of the day on weekdays only. I offer 20, 30, or 60 minute walks and/or trips to the dog park!
