I don’t bark, but I go to the park!
Pet care experience
New to the Grand Rapids area and what better way to learn the beauty of Michigan than by walking dogs and petting kitties? Available to stop in and take care of your beloved fur babies any time of day, I am eager to enjoy this beautiful Michigan summer walking all the good dogs!
About Kate G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I believe that safety and trust is the entire foundation on which the relationship with a client should be based on. I believe this starts with upfront and honest communication. I am direct and clear, but always super positive! I believe animals are part of our family, and gentle parenting goes for animals as well.
Information Kate G. would like to know about your pet
I like to know what kind of personality your fur baby has! Are they quiet or super social? Do they need you to look away while they do their business or encourage them to do it? (My youngest cat for whatever reason has an easier time going when he is told he’s a good boy for trying, it’s weird, but it’s just who he is). Oh, and obviously my favorite question to ask; where’s their favorite spot to pet?
A typical day
I have a huge park behind the place where I live, my neighbors are always walking their dogs and letting them play. They look so happy! I would love to bring the dogs to the park, let them run around and get out all their zoomies. I love to give treats, and with my culinary background, I have been known to cook some special goodies for my fur babies every once in a while!

Availability
Currently only working part time, so taking care of animals is the perfect way to fill in the other half of my schedule! I’m the most relaxed when I’m with animals, and nothing sounds better than time with pets!
