Safety, trust & environment

Currently live in an apartment complex. Apartment complex is nice though and has a fenced in dog park that's fairly sized and my lab would be an exceptional friend ! If that's not of interest to you, I would love to take care of the pet in the comfort of your home, which I have done before. I would make sure that your pet/pets are safe and in good hands I always send messages and updates to ensure you feel at ease.

Information Katalina S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if they have any triggers that would bother them and if they have any allergies that would be helpful inform to know.

A typical day

First things first make sure there's always plenty of water in the bowl. Also double check to see if they need to eat. If your dogs a couch potato I'll be right there with them haha. Or if they're super active like my lab, a game of fetch and long walk. And a treat here and there haha.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Katalina, a reliable and experienced dog sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs both on and off Rover. I also have a Labrador Retriever of my own, so I understand the daily care, energy, and attention dogs need. I’ve worked with puppies, seniors, and dogs with special needs, and I’m comfortable adapting to different routines and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup!

So this was my first time using the app and I can’t express how amazing Katalina was! Right upon meeting I felt so comfortable and safe with her watching my fur babies and staying in my home! I will definitely be reaching out again and am so thankful to have someone watch my dogs like they were her own! Thank you so much !!!

Amazing wonderful fantastic are some of the many adjectives I would use to describe Katalina. She was terrific with our elder dog, Roxie! She took such good care of her we felt very comfortable knowing Katalina was there. She conscientious and kind, caring and polite and an all around terrific person. I would definitely book her again the next thing we're going out of town.

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.
