Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet owner from birth
I've had pets of all kinds my whole life. These days I share my home with a senior dog and a foster fail puppy, so I know what it's like to manage very different energy levels, needs, and quirks under one roof. I'm currently working toward my certification as a force-free trainer, and I practice loose leash training with my own dogs every day. I've dog sat for friends and family for years, so I'm comfortable with a wide range of temperaments, routines, and special needs, from medication schedules to reactive leash manners. Whether your dog is a bouncy puppy or a set-in-their-ways senior, I'll treat them like my own: with patience, consistency, and a lot of love. Primary Service Area: Marigny, St. Roch, Bywater, and St. Claude. Extended Service Area: French Quarter, Tremé, 7th Ward, Mid-City, and Bayou St. John.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will always follow your instructions exactly - feeding schedules, medication, routines, quirks, all of it. Nothing gets improvised or "close enough." I understand this firsthand: I have a dog with very specific needs, and I know what it's like to hesitate handing that responsibility to someone else. That's why I take direction seriously and communicate clearly, so you're never left wondering how things are going. Your pet's routine stays their routine, whether I'm in your home or mine (and you can expect updates and honesty).
Ratings and reviews
I have known Kaet her entire life, and she is a huge lover of all creatures great and small!! She has three dogs of her own and goes above and beyond for each of them. They are cared for with all of her heart, enjoy daily walks, get the best food, treats, and vet care!! Kaet has watched my own pooches on multiple occasions, and I know that they are in the best hands when they are with Kaet. Kaet is an advocate for all animals and would be a great caregiver to any pets she meets through Rover.
Kaet is an exceptional caregiver for animals, especially dogs. She has a natural ability to connect with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Kaet has cared for multiple breeds over the years, including puppies, high-energy adult dogs, and elderly dogs who require extra patience and specialized attention. She understands that each dog has unique needs and tailors her care accordingly — whether that means reinforcing positive training techniques, managing senior dog health routines, or helping young puppies develop good habits from the start. Beyond her hands-on experience, Kaet is deeply passionate about animal welfare. She actively supports adoption efforts and volunteers her time at local shelters, where she walks and helps train dogs to improve their behavior and increase their chances of finding loving homes. Her dedication goes far beyond basic care — she is genuinely committed to the well-being, happiness, and long-term success of every dog she works with. Kaet is responsible, attentive, patient, and incredibly compassionate. Any pet in her care is not only safe but truly loved. I would wholeheartedly trust her with any dog and confidently recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and devoted caregiver.
Kaet is the absolute best! She is my go to whenever I am needing someone to walk my pup, Juneau (a doberman). She is kind and gentle, yet fun and in control when they are together. Juneau definitely looks forward to hanging out with Kaet!

Schedule
Because I work from home and set my own hours, I can give your pet the same unhurried, present attention I give my own dogs. I have a lot of flexibility in my days, so whether you need consistent daytime visits, a flexible window, or someone who can work around a less predictable schedule, I'm glad to make it work.
