Pet care experience

I have always had the opportunity to take care of pets for my friends and family. I work remotely and have a lot of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care for your pets. If you’re looking to have peace of mind while enjoying time away and keeping your pets in their own environment - I would be honored to have the opportunity to provide my services and ensure they are cared for as if they were my own.

This was Kate’s first time sitting for our dog and we were able to meet ahead of the actual overnight which was very important for us! We knew Kate would be great after her visit with us and we were correct! Kate respected our home and did a fantastic job watching over our large Rhodesian Ridgeback! I would not hesitate to use Kate going forward and I truly appreciate her passion and respect in regards to alleviating any anxiety I would typically have because of her knowledge - confidence - caring and maturity!! She did a great job and I look forward to having her sit again!

Kate, along with her daughter Allie, was fantastic! We took a 2-week vacation and left our pets in her very capable hands. She sent us daily updates, including Instagram Reels, of our pets. She also kept our place clean and ready for our return. I would recommend Kate 1000x for your pet-sitting needs. I don't plan on using anyone else! She's our gal!

Kate is amazing! She is super flexible and always accommodates when she can. She was very communicative throughout her stay and updated me on my pup at all the right times. Kate is the best person to watch your furry friends. My 6 month old puppy absolutely adores Kate and always feels comfortable and happy around her.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
