Information Katalina R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your pet’s personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, allergies, fears, or any behaviors I should be aware of. I also appreciate knowing how they interact with other people or animals so I can provide the best and safest care possible.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I like to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. We’ll go on walks, play with their favorite toys, enjoy lots of attention, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, water, meals, and cuddle time. My goal is for them to feel happy, comfortable, and safe while you’re away.

Experienced, attentive pet sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I have 2 dogs and one cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’m patient, responsible, and will make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own.

I’ve had the privilege of watching Katalina care for animals her entire life, and I can honestly say they are happiest when they’re with her. She is incredibly patient, gentle, responsible, and attentive to every pet’s unique personality and needs. Katalina has cared for our own dogs with the same love and dedication she gives everything she does. Whether it’s making sure they’re exercised, keeping them on their routine, giving them plenty of affection, or noticing the smallest changes in their behavior, she treats every animal like family. She’s dependable, trustworthy, and communicates well, so I would feel completely comfortable leaving my pets in her care. Any pet parent who chooses Katalina can feel confident that their furry family member will be safe, loved, and exceptionally well cared for. I recommend her without hesitation.
