Pet care experience

The best care for your best friend

Hello there! I have been caring for animals of all kinds ever since I can remember. I have a passion for providing pets with the finest care and have had this experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have 8+ years of experience as a certified veterinary technician. I currently work in ER and general practice veterinary medicine as a head nurse. With my work experience, I have come to know a wide variety of information on medications and health conditions that require specific attention. I have recently become CPR certified for companion animals through LCCC. I hope that I may be the right fit for your pets and we may get to talk further. I will provide references upon request and will of course take any other questions you may have.

Safety, trust & environment

I plan to always follow safety precautions when staying with your pet especially on walks and exiting/entering a home. A big thing for me is animal safety and I always make sure to have good communication with the pet owner throughout the duration of the stay

House Sitting • Sep 23, 2019

Kat was great despite all the challenges of the weekend. First of all, I was so pleased that she came as her grandfather passed away the morning of our departure. Then, our Jenny was very uncooperative and would not come into the house afer being taken outside to play on the second day . To top everything else off, I was at a wedding. The band was loud. I never heard the phone AND the phone went dead at some point in the eveing. With no way to reach me, KAT did what she had to do to ensure the safety of our pets and our home even though, I am sure it cost her a night's sleep. Eventually, she was able to get Jenny in. Niska, our SID, did not tell us any secrets about the event! I would highly recommend Kat!
