Safety, trust & environment

I’m happy to care for your pet in your home — where they’re most comfortable — and I always make sure they get plenty of attention, fresh air, and companionship. I’m very active and love spending time outdoors, so your dog will have a great time getting outside with me.

Information Kat H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, quirks, or behaviors I should be aware of so I can care for them safely and consistently. I’m comfortable with a wide range of breeds and temperaments, and knowing their preferences ahead of time helps me make their time with me as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged both physically and mentally. We’ll play their favorite games, explore the neighborhood, and enjoy plenty of sniffing and enrichment time. If your dog loves longer walks or park adventures, I’m happy to take them to a nearby green space for fresh air and exercise. My goal is always to keep them happy, stimulated, and relaxed.

Loving, Active, Reliable Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Kat — a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even horses. I have a degree in animal and nutritional sciences, and I have worked in veterinary offices and volunteered at multiple rescues. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I truly love what I do. I’m also a Blue Heeler owner myself, so I understand how important routine, enrichment, and consistency are — especially for high-energy or working breeds. Whether you have a puppy who needs structure, a senior who deserves gentle care, or a shy kitty who needs patience, I’m here to help. What I offer: • Drop-ins & dog walks with flexible scheduling • Comfortable with puppies, seniors, and special-needs pets • Experience administering oral and injected medications • Can provide structured exercise, mental enrichment, and calm companionship • High-quality communication: photo updates, Rover Cards, & fast response times My goal is to treat your pet like my own — with kindness, attentiveness, and respect for their individual personality. I’ll follow any instructions you leave with care and make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member!

Kat was very friendly, caring and thorough. Our dogs and kitty loved her and were well taken care of. We are so thankful we found someone trustworthy to be in our home with our animals while we were gone so long. ❤️

Kat was great! She was prompt, left detailed notes & pictures and really seemed to make the most of her time with Murphy. I would recommend her and look forward to having her over again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
