Traveling Retired Pig Farmer

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm a freelance videographer around Phoenix traveling around the country. If I'm not out filming I'm at home editing. Due to my travel schedule, I declined to adopt my own dogs, so when I'm home I'm up for some fur baby company. I grew up with 4 beautiful mutts on the farm. Yes I really am a retired pig farmer! During college, I took in the sweetest pitbull as she needed to be the only pet in the home. As pitties do, she thought she was a lap dog. She has since passed but we lived a wonderful life together. I would love to hang your pup or cat offering belly or behind the ear scratches and walks around the neighborhood.

Apollo had a great time. We got daily pictures of him and it was super easy to schedule drop off and pick up

My chihuahuas Baby Monkey and Cosimo loved Kate so much! They had so much fun. She really gives them love and makes them feel at home. I would recommend Kate as a sitter :)

Kate was amazing with our boy Denzel while we were on our 5 night trip. She is a total dog person and it has shown since we have first met. Her and Denzel were really bonded by the time we picked him up. Denzel has a little anxiety with certain noises and Kate went out of her way to make him comfortable. We will be using Kate again ? we have found our go to Rover!

Kate was absolutely amazing! We needed someone trustworthy and kind to care for our two big dogs while our home was being shown for sale. Our Golden Retriever is blind so we usually have someone come to our home. I was super nervous about whether he would be able to navigate another home. Kate was absolutely amazing when she met them and even sent pictures before their arrival showing us how she had “dog proofed” her home with rubber table corners and removing obstacles for him. ❤️ During their stay she sent the best “pupdates” and pictures of their adventures in the awesome green belt behind her home. They’re home now and missing all the attention and activity from their vacation! ? Kate is absolutely the BEST!!

Information Kate H. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know before hand if there are anything to note about your pet. “Don’t touch her behind the ears.” Or maybe “He will whine but no treats before his dinner.” Also “She get territorial if you are in the offices space so stay clear.” Any notes of daily habits, patterns or advice is always welcomed.

A typical day

Activities will come down to what the dog or cat is up for. Loves a dog park? Great let’s go! Enjoys staying home but loves tug-o-war? Game on! Want to cuddle up while I’m on the couch? Absolutely!

I am currently traveling the country as a videographer and video editor. I want to take advantage that I can travel and see the land without the restrictions of an office job. And might as well have some fur baby company along the way.
