Kate can care for
Availability
I have 3 pets of my own and our daily routine is an anchor for each day. Pet care for other people happens any time after morning feeding & exercise routine with my own pets, ideally at a consistent time to develop a comfortable routine with your pet. For house sitting clients, I prioritize having the option of sleeping at my own home but I'm open to house sitting for clients who need frequent care throughout the day.

About Kate E.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am very mindful of leaving peoples' space as I found it when visiting a client's home. The purpose of being there is to ensure the pet is safe and has everything it needs - anything beyond that I ask permission from the pet owner.
Information Kate E. would like to know about your pet
I am happy to know sounds or sights they are fearful of, what their usual routine looks like, and anything I can do as a new person to gain their trust.
A typical day
Of course the top two activities are petting & playing with their toys! For shy pets, I will often quietly sit and watch a video or play a quiet game on my phone where they can see me until they become curious what I'm doing.

Home worker, great with timid pets
Pet care experience
Hello! I am an animal lover looking to support myself doing something I love as I navigate a transitional period in my career. I am very experienced caring for pets. I grew up with cats and care for many friends' dogs of all training levels and sizes. If you have a mixed-pet household I would be an ideal fit for you because I understand the dynamics between different types of pets. I have a talent for comforting timid pets and pets who have trouble with new people. I would love to get to know your pet and spend time with them while you cannot! I also enjoy practicing training activities with dogs, so if you are looking for a carer who can test and report back on your training goals, I would be a good choice for you. I am available almost always during normal business hours on weekdays and occasionally on weekends.

Reviews
Cats seem happy and well-cared for! Thanks so much!!
Kate was absolutely wonderful with our cats. Super communicative, attentive, and sweet. We would absolutely book her again!
Thank you Kate for being available at a short notice, being so communicative and sweet to our Sammy girl! So grateful to have found you on Rover ♥️
Kate was professional from the very beginning with timely and open communication before even booking. It’s clear she has a lot of experience with cat sitting. I didn’t worry once about my pet during my vacation and my pet is reactive and scared of strangers. I would recommend and rebook without doubt.
