PLEASE READ: I work from home, I enjoy working out and I love exploring the neighborhood. This means I’ll almost always have your loved one with me in the house or walking around the neighborhood getting our steps in! Early drop offs: drop offs earlier than 6am need approval but I am happy to accommodate Late pickups: I can only accommodate pick ups until 10PM. After that, the reservation must be adjusted for a pick up the next morning between 6:00am and 7:00am.

Safety, trust & environment

*Please let me know if any if any food items you pack peanuts in the ingredients, I’m allergic* During warmer days, I have a very powerful AC running in the house so that none of our beloved pets overheat or get uncomfortable with the heat/humidity. When it comes to caring for pets, safety, trust, and creating the right environment are my top priorities. I keep my home clean and clutter free to keep curious explorers safe and away from what could be harmful. All plants are elevated as well! Potty-trained fur friends are welcome to roam my apartment and leash use begins from the moment my shoes are on (inside the house) until we return. I maintain a clean and hygienic space, ensuring a safe environment at all times. When the weather starts getting warm, out comes the fan and air conditioner! Some of our fur friends overheat easily and we definitely don’t want that! Rest assured, your pet will thrive in a place where they're not just a guest but a cherished friend. For in-home visits, I bring the same dedication. I understand that your pet's environment is their sanctuary. I follow routines and instructions to the letter, maintaining a familiar atmosphere to reduce any stress. Trust is paramount, and you can rely on me to provide the loving care and attention your pet needs, right in the comfort of their own home. Whether it's my place or yours, your pet's safety and happiness are my utmost concerns. You can count on me to create a trusted and comfortable space for your beloved companion.

Information Catherine K. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing your pet’s comfort levels with being around too many people, anxiety with vehicles and buses, if it’s okay for them to have a little whip-cream, if they are comfortable with public transport (the monorail) and things like that so I can plan our outdoor activities.

A typical day

During the times I’m cooking or working, your 4-legged loved ones will most likely be people/dog/squirrel watching at my floor-to-ceiling windows or keeping me company while some music is playing on the background. When we go out during our walks, we walk a tried and true circuit around the park behind the space needle that can be shortened or lengthened depending on your pup’s energy levels. We may also explore some neighborhood cafes for our friends that like whipped cream! When the weather is super permitting, we walk to the pier and enjoy the breeze coming from the water!

Pet care experience

What makes me stand out as your pet sitter is my genuine passion for dogs. I'm not just here to clock in and out; I'm here to make tails wag and hearts sing. I've spent years building friendships with our four-legged buddies, and I take their happiness seriously. Whether it's leashed play at the park, belly rubs on the carpet, or a brisk walk to chase birds and squirrels, I'm all in. Your dogs aren't just clients to me; they're like family, and I promise to give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve. Rest assured, they'll be in the best pawsible hands! 🐾

Catherine is terrific! We had an emergency health crisis and she stepped in and was an incredible help to us by watching Enzo. We are very grateful for her and the good care she provides for our pup.

Catherine is absolutely wonderful. She truly goes above and beyond when taking care of Hiro. We feel confident every time we book with her that Hiro is getting the best attention and care while we're away.

Catherine took wonderful care of Enzo! Very communicative and thoughtful. We weren’t sure he would want to come home after the pampering and attention she game him. We will definitely book again.

Catherine is amazing! She takes such amazing care of our dog every time we go out of town - she is kind, reliable, and so attentive to my dog. She also goes above and beyond, like fixing treats and giving baths for your pup (if they would like). Thank you Catherine!
