Pet care experience

I love Pit bulls to Pomeranians!

Hello! My name is Kate. I have owned dogs from shizus to pit bulls and loved them all. I believe all dogs need the most care and affection while also having a space to run free and play, which is why I currently do not own a dog due to living in an apartment. Sadly, not having a dog, has left me with a void that needs to be filled by longs walks and many belly rubs. I care for my family and friends’ dogs when they are away. I enjoy walks with dogs and playing fetch. I am free on weekends and at night. During the summer, I will be home full-time as well. I also have two cats of my own that I've raised since they were kittens.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When housing another animal, I always separate them when leaving the house. I believe in meet and greets with the pet and owner to ensure that the pet trusts me and the owner feels safe with leaving their animal with me. If you have a strict diet or routine for your animal, know that it will be followed to a tee. I know how easily an animal can get off its routine, so I hold it in high regard.

Kate was fantastic! We were nervous to leave out of state to a location with very little service & she eased our worries! Kate made sure our doggo was loved and cared for? She showed up on time, played with him, and sent lots of updates. We couldn’t be more pleased! Thank you Kate!

Kate was fabulous with our goldens. She pampered Leo through thunderstorms and left our house in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend her and will be contacting her when we travel in the future.

Kate and Dylan housesat and watched Pepper while we were out of town for the week. They put our minds at ease by sending daily pictures and updates of Pepper. They were even kind enough to offer to replace a ball that accidentally ended up on the roof during a exciting game of catch. They took great care of the house and watered the garden. 11/10, would recommend Kate and Dylan to watch your pet and house.

Kate was so wonderful to work with! Very responsive to communication, and she shared a ton of photos of what our pup was up to throughout the weekend. He looked super happy and spoiled in each one. Highly recommend!

Kate is a fantastic choice when it comes to watching your dog! She is a caring, kind, and responsible caregiver. Luna and Goose both love her. She treats them as if they were her own. I love that she always sends me photos and keeps me updated on how they are doing while I’m gone.

Kate is the one you want to leave your fur baby with when you go out of town. She loves them like they are her own! She is one of the kindest, most compassionate people I know. Kate will provide great care and I completely trust her with my pets! I highly recommend Kate.

I do not have any breed preferences although I do have a soft spot for pit bulls and bully breeds. The only thing I would want to know about your dog is their dietary schedule and if there are restrictions, their vet (in case of emergencies), background (if they were abused or neglected, if they have any triggers), how you discipline them (in case of accidents that the discipline will still be put in place and fluent), and anything else you may deem pertinent.
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.
