Whenever, wherever, I’ll be there

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and cats and my parents were the kind of parents who made me fully responsible for my pets well being. So I was the one always caring for them. Growing up I also volunteered caring for pets in need and helping them find homes, so I know how to administer medicine and care for ill animals. I love animals and I’m always walking my friends dogs and babysitting my friends cats. Since I don’t have a pet right now (can’t afford it or commit long term atm), this is a great opportunity for me to work doing something I love. And I have a car and can help with transportation. Let me know how I can be there for you and how we can help each other :)

If you are looking for the best pet sitter out there, look no further ! You are reading a review in her profile as we speak.... Where do I begin with ? I hired Katherine for a week to come take care of my cat, Júpiter, while I went away on a much needed and deserved vacation. I was worried because Júpiter is super clingy, I had never left him for such long time, and I had had a bad experience with another pet sitter before....soon I realized that choosing Katherine was the best decision I could have ever made: She is sweet, responsible, caring, kind, and truly loves pets ! She went above and beyong in several aspects: Once she learnt that I had previously had a bad experience with another pet sitter, she asked me a few questions to learn what my expectation and my need was, to make sure this wouldn't happen to me again. One day, while sitting Júpiter, the building's fire drill was being conducted, and she stayed a few extra minutes with Júpiter (she didn't have to !), just to make sure Júpiter was alright because he tends to get scared with loud noises. She showed up everyday, on time, to take care of Júpiter and followed 100% of my instructions (and I had given her plenty of those !). She also sent me daily updates on how Júpiter was doing, with plenty of pictures and videos, which allowed me to relax and enjoy a worry-free vacation. I wouldn't have achieved this if it wasn't for Katherine, and I will always be grateful with her for that. To sum up, I strongly recommend Katherine...she is a wonderful pet sitter and both Júpiter and I wouldn't change her for the world.

I have never felt as comfortable as I was with Katherine watching our dog, Arlo. She was attentive, trustworthy, kind, communicative and patient. Our dog has some health and pain issues and she was very comfortable administering medication and keeping an eye out for any changes in his demeanour. I felt so confident with Katherine caring for our dog. We will definitely use her services again!!

We were really happy to find Katherine last minute. She took great care of our dog Scout. She walked her and kept her safe and comfortable while Scout was getting over a cold. We appreciated the pictures and updated information throughout her stay. We will definitely use Katherine again!
