Pet care experience
I have been in the industry since 1996 starting as a house trained vet assistant, kennel attendant and shelter volunteer. In 2002 I graduated from the Academy of Dog and Cat grooming Arts and have been practicing since. I've lived in my home since 2003 and surrounded by pets the ENTIRE time. Around 2011 I started rescue and foster work and have helped get dozens of pets in safe homes. Currently I groom at a local salon and I have a loyal following of established pets that I have been sitting in my home for years. My life wouldn't be complete any other way. Here, we are a family of 3 dogs, 3 cats, chickens, a horse and a donkey...and me, Mom of 2 boys 11 and 6, both very well trained to respect dogs. This is what we do.
Reviews
Kate took great care of my 2 golden retrievers. They were there for a weekend and became part of her family for the short time they were there! I highly recommend Kate!
It was so comforting to leave our dog with Kate knowing her background working with animals and her love for them.
Just picked up our dog after 5 days with Kate. It took him 10 hours to perk up, a sign of a well played with puppy. She sent updates and pictures while we were on our trip. Kate was very easy to work with and extremely accommodating. This was our first time using someone outside the family and I will 100% use Kate again.
I appreciate Kate and her care for my Sadie❣️

I need to know everything you think I should know in order to keep him or her safe.
A typical day
All dogs are leashed walked to a potty pen. On their journey they will meet some chickens and possible a horse and donkey if we walk a little further down. My 3 senior dogs are great with all dogs and love to play or not if the situation so calls. Most pets leave and sleep for hours at home because of all the activity.
