Pet care experience

Love is a four-legged word. ❤️

I have a vast array of pet care from puppies and kittens, to bunnies and cattle, horses, and chickens. I have a German Shepard named Meeko and a Pointer/Great Pyrenees mix named Bodie. Both are young and rowdy still. I also have fourteen chickens that I am taking care of day in and day out, and that I consider pets as well. My dad has cattle so I have lots of experience helping him on the farm and I’d love to have goats, mules, and donkeys one day. I am meticulous and careful in my pet care as a sitter with Rover. I want to make sure every care need and preference is met and exceeds expectations. I’ll always be considerate of your space, home, and pets needs!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I would take care of your pet as if it’s my own. I often times give words of love or “affirmation”. I’ll even ask them how their day has been! 😂 I’m gentle and encouraging. Never negative or rough while handling pets.

I was very happy to have Kate take care of my cat when I was on a trip. Very reliable and did all I requested for the cat and more. She got along well with my shy cat! Very nice to have reliable sitter, and I would definitely request Kate as a sitter.

Katie was absolutely fantastic! She took amazing care of our dogs, cats, and even collected our chicken eggs while we were away. She kept us updated with great communication, sent pictures, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our pets were happy and well cared for. When we got home, everyone was relaxed and happy, which says everything about the care they received. Katie went above and beyond, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about our animals as if they were her own. We highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again!

Kate is always responsive and so lovely with my cats. I am always less anxious when she is taking care of them and know they’re in good hands. She always goes above and beyond simple care! I’ve used her like 30 times and hope to keep her for many more years.
