Safety, trust & environment

I know how important communication is when you’re away from your pet, so I always give thorough updates! I’ve been known to make friends with even the most shy pets who tend to hide. And most importantly, will send you plenty of photos while you're away.

Information Kate H. would like to know about your pet

For dog walks, let me know if your pup has any favorite walks, stops, or parks in the neighborhood that we should be sure to hit on our walks! For all pets, tell me if there are any specific behaviors that should be rewarded with a treat!

A typical day

I like to take walks every day, so on walks with your pup we'll check out all the little triangle parks and explore the neighborhood!

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of pets my whole life! I have almost always lived with a pet, and during the few times I didn't have a pet of my own, I would pet sit for free just to hang out with a furry friend. Currently, I have two cats but am not a cat or a dog person, I’m an animal person :)

Kate is our go-to pet sitter no matter what. We always trust our furry friends are in the best hands when she’s looking after them. We don’t know what we’d do without her.

Kate has become a familiar, friendly face to our two furry ones. She’s so professional, prompt, and communicative, I wouldn’t even think about choosing someone else.

Kate is the best! We trust her to do a thorough job keeping things in order while we’re away, but, more importantly, our kitties trust her and have learned to be themselves around her. She brings out the best in even the most shy animal.

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.
