Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced cat sitter <3
I grew up with cats my entire life and absolutely adore them. Currently I have two, five year old indoor cats with different personalities and needs. While they are both still relatively young and healthy - one is on a special urinary diet that I have to monitor, and another has minor FHS and general anxiety. I myself worry about my cats when I have to go out of town given their needs, so I completely understand the importance of following care instructions closely and monitoring cat's behavior and health. I also understand that all cats have different comfort levels and interests when it comes to playing and interacting with (new) people, and respect their privacy when they are getting to know me.

Safety, trust & environment
I have indoor cats - so I know the importance of keeping doors closed, etc and keeping an eye on the little ones. I'm very good about feeding appropriate amounts at appropriate times as well as keeping the litter box clean and monitoring potty activity.
Ratings and reviews
Kate was fantastic from the very beginning. She was very clear and open with her communication before she even watched Archer and she stayed consistent with it too. I can tell Archer really loved having her over as evidenced by the videos and pictures she sent me of him playing with her. It made me feel totally at ease knowing he was in great hands with her! As a side note, she took fantastic still and action shots of Archer that I can't wait to show others! I would 100% book with Kate again!
Kate was lovely. She took care of my two cats for over a week and was super on it. Lots of cute videos and updates. I’ll certainly call her again.
Kate was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Poppy! 🥹 She truly took the best care of her. Kate took Poppy on longer walks than any other dog sitter we’ve had, which Poppy absolutely loved. She played with her, gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure she was happy and well cared for while I was at work and my wife was out of town! I can get pretty stressed when Poppy has a new sitter, but I didn’t feel even the slightest bit nervous while Kate was taking care of her. She gave us so much peace of mind, and it meant more than I can say. We’re so grateful to Kate and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own!🤍
Kate has become a regular cat sitter for me and she is always 10/10!
Kate continues to do a great job with my cat!
Kate is a wonderful petsitter! She goes the extra mile and sends a ton of videos and funny pictures of my cats playing and having fun with her. She’s taken care of my cats since they were kittens so my reviews are probably getting a bit repetitive at this point—she does such a great job 👏

Schedule
I'm a recent PhD grad from Cornell. I can easily commute with my car and so it is easy reach clients' residences around the Cincinnati area. Cat visits are ideal for me because I can stop by before and after work. Early mornings are best as well as after 6pm drop-in visits -- but I can be flexible if necessary! I’m still looking for a job, so midday walks are open for now!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsKate can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- Let me know if your cat or dog has any special needs. I’m most comfortable with small-medium dogs and gentle larger dogs. Knowing energy levels ahead of time is also important!
