Experienced Pet Sitter & Dog Walker
Pet care experience
I am a lifelong dog owner with 20 years of experience providing pet sitting and dog walking services. I have extensive experience with dogs (and cats!) of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I will provide your pets with the same attention and care as if they were my own. I offer the following services: - Drop in visits: up to two 30-minute visits to your home per day - Dog walking: prices are quoted for 30 minute walks, with additional charge per 15 minutes (up to 1.5 hours). I only charge for walk time; any additional time spent giving treats, water, cuddles, etc., is free of charge :) - Overnight sitting: Price quoted includes overnight stay. I am a remote freelance editor, so I will spend most of my time at home with your pets! I will adapt my schedule to your pets' needs, and will rarely need to be away for more than a couple hours at a time. Prices vary depending on the specific services requested, travel distance, number of animals, length of stay, etc. Please contact me if you would like to discuss pricing—I am happy to provide custom quotes based on your specific needs.
Reviews
Kate was great with our dogs. They were attached to her immediately and had a good day and night with her. Everyone is happy. And that's a good day. I'd hire Kate to watch my dogs again in a heartbeat.
Kate is an excellent pet sitter. She stayed with our dog Rosie for 5 nights. Kate texted me daily with updates and photos. We came home to a very happy, and fit, dog! We highly recommend Kate!
Kate made sure my kitty was happy and entertained with drop-in visits while I was away. She sent pictures and updates and was very accommodating to our needs! I definitely recommend her for your pet-sitting!
Kate is amazing! My dogs were happy, healthy, and so well cared for. Having her in my home with my animals gave me peace of mind because I knew she would provide them attention and care. I would highly recommend her!

I am currently unable to provide boarding in my home, but I do offer house-sitting, drop-in visits, and dog-walking, so your pets can relax in a familiar environment while you are away! Please contact me to arrange a meet-and-greet so that I can meet your pet and you can show me their routine (feeding, walks, medication, etc.).
Information Kate D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any allergies, medical conditions, special needs, or is taking any medication. I also like to know how your dog interacts with other people and dogs so that I can be prepared when walking them.
A typical day
I love walking, especially with dogs! During our meet-and-greet, I typically ask if there are any good walking routes around your home and/or any roads to avoid. I can also take your dog to a dog park if there are any nearby, play with them inside or outside if you have a fenced yard, and of course give them lots of love and attention!

Availability
I work remotely as a freelancer, and I only require a computer and internet connection. This means I have plenty of time to spend with your pets!
