Animal Lover
Pet care experience
I understand completely that leaving your dog with a sitter can be very nerve-racking because I have been there myself! This is a little embarrassing to admit, but I cried the first time I left my dog with a sitter because I was so worried about her. Dogs are family and I treat all of the dogs who stay with me like I would my own. I don’t want you to have to worry about your precious dog at all, and I want you to fully enjoy your trip/vacation. I have decades of experience with animals, and I am very reliable and trustworthy. I am a true animal lover, and a portion of the money I make goes to 2 local animal rescue groups, and 1 in South America. I live in a house with a fenced in yard and even a swimming pool if your dog wants to take a dip! I always take my dog on 2 walks a day, and your dog will get the same treatment. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, and I spend a lot of time playing with them and giving belly rubs! My home does not have stairs, which may be helpful for smaller and older dogs. If your dog needs something specific like an extra walk, special food preparation, or medicine, I can provide that. I only accept 1 dog in my home on a given day (holidays I accept 2), so your dog's stay will be in a tranquil, loving atmosphere. I want your dog to enjoy his/her time at my home! I have a 2 year old son, so your dog would need to be good with small children.
Reviews
Kate was great and super flexible watching our dog Gumbo for the day. I appreciated her flexibility when we picked him up a little later than planned. Gumbo had a great time. Would use again!
Kate was great with Kona :) she was very kind and sent cute photo updates. I would definitely recommend her.
This was such an amazing rover experience! She was caring and flexible with my travel changes. Her puppy got along with my puppy well and welcomed aspen into her home:) i received daily pictures and short updates that she was doing well. All in all a wonderful rover! Thank you!
Utah enjoyed his stay! We appreciated all the updates. Thank you for caring for Utah.

Information Kate C. would like to know about your pet
Breed does not matter, but because I have a dog who is very friendly, I cannot host any aggressive dogs. Also, at this time I can only host dogs who are potty trained. I have a 1 year old son, so your dog would need to be good with small children.
A typical day
In the morning the dogs will go out for potty in the fenced yard, then they will be served breakfast. A short while after that I take them on a morning walk. Throughout the day they are free to play with my dog Lucy, take naps, and just hang out. The dogs can sleep wherever they like to sleep, including their bed, the couch or a human’s bed!

Availability
I am a teacher and my husband has his own business. I am usually home by 3pm, and my husband is in and out of the house all day. I am home full time in the summer and during holidays. If my husband and I are not home, your dog would have free reign of the house and would have our sweet girl Lucy to keep them company! During the school year, drop offs and pickups will need to be before 7am, and after 3pm M-F.
