About Kate D.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I make it a point to be aware of my surroundings, attentive to pets’ in-the-moment needs, and prepared for the unexpected. I respond calmly and resiliently in emergencies, and I always do my best to meet unruliness with gentleness and understanding.

Pet care experience
I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! It started with a “grassroots” dog-walking business in elementary school and has evolved to petsitting for friends/family—with the recent highlight of volunteering at Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare on a trip to the U.K.! I love all dogs big and small but have a special fondness for the quirky ones :)
Reviews
Kate was amazing from beginning to end! She took the time to make sure my dogs felt comfortable with her prior to their stay and provided a detailed summary of their walk and lots of photos! Couldn’t recommend her more.
Kate is kind, trustworthy and an incredible pet caregiver! She has been caring for my two dogs (75-pound goldendoodle and 15-pound cockapoo) for several years. She is an excellent communicator, extremely organized with all of their specific needs and always willing to do what she can to make me and my dogs comfortable! She has such a huge heart for pets and my own love her like family! I work in animal welfare, so the wellbeing of my pets and all pets is extremely important to me. You could not find a better pet sitter or walker than Kate!
