Professional & Friendly Animal Care
Pet care experience
My name is Kathy and I have cared for pets my entire life. As a child I walked the neighborhood pets until I had my own. Every opportunity I had I was around animals. As an adult I have managed boarding kennels, worked at a veterinary hospital, and have my own pet sitting company, In Your Absence. I am a recent graduate with a master of science in animal science. I have also completed my B.S. in animal science. I am happy to provide care for your loved ones when you are unable to be there with them. I provide walks, vet visit/groomer transportation, and medical administration, in addition to general care. I provide overnight in-home care as well as visits only. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog and animal lover my entire life! I have had numerous pets of my own over the years. We currently do not have any pets in our home but are looking to add a new family member within the next year. My experience administering medication I am completely comfortable administering any medication or performing any procedures that may be needed.
Reviews
Kat has helped us for years now and is always so helpful, communicative, and wonderful with our new puppy!
I’m so happy to have met Kat! She came to meet Remmi, our 125lb English/Italian mastiff before watching her for the first time. I feel it is important for everyone to feel comfortable in a house and dog sitting situation-not only Remmi and I, but Kat as well! I immediately felt comfortable and confident with Kat taking care of our sweet pup and home while out of town. We used Kat again soon after the first time..a VERY last minute trip. Kat responded right away and agreed to help us out-she’s wonderful! I could go on and on-she is a perfect fit for our mastiff and mainecoon kitty!
Kat has helped us many times and is wonderful. Quick to respond and easy to coordinate with every time.
I was gone for longer than usual when I travel and I felt totally assured of Kathy's care and attention to my critters and my home. She really listened to my concerns and asked for details with regard to both the dogs and the kittens. She posted photos and called with questions. I would definitely ask her back next time I leave. Thank you Kathy!

Information Kat B. would like to know about your pet
I do not have breed preferences, I love them all! I always like to get as much information as I can prior to sitting. There's no such thing as too much info! I want to make sure you and your pet feel comfortable with me and the care I will provide. A brief medical history is also important prior to sitting.
