I am retired and stay home most of the day. My neighborhood is safe and very fit for taking walks. I often take trips to dog beach over the weekends.

About Kate I.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Since I am at home most of the time, I can keep eyes of your fur babies very closely. I have monitoring cameras so that Ican keep eyes on them even while I am out running errands, etc. I only take limited number of dogs (depending on their size and familiarity to my house) a given day so that everyone can have their own spaces. In an unlikely event of your dog needing medical attention, I will try my best to bring him/her to his/her vet, but in a more unlikely event of needing immediate medical attention, please understand s/he will be taken to the nearest vet. If your dog has any food allergies or restrictions, please make sure to mention it. Ther are a few houses in the neighborhood which offer free treats and my dog always beg for them during a walk.
Home
Information Kate I. would like to know about your pet
I thoroughly review the care information at the beginning of our time together. Please include as much information as you wish. For overnight boarding, please bring food in (a) sealed container(s)/bag(s). Snacks and bowls are optional. Bed/blankets and toys are also optional (I have some). Please leave things which you do not want to be broken at home. Some dogs like to chew on things.
A typical day
The yard is big enough to play fetch. I have toys and pool (in summer). I also have a separate enclosed area for a dog who prefers alone time. I take my dogs for walks for unset amount of time on unset schedule and usually one or two trips to Fiesta Island over the weekend. I take the dogs that I host to walk or beach, to the extent possible (unless otherwise requested not to do so). But, if you dog requires a certain length of walks or on certain schedule, please book walks, I do not offer stand alone walks.

Pet care experience
I have lived with and care for dogs most of my life. I raised them from when they are puppies until their natural end of life. I have volunteered at a local shelter and received trainings in dog care and training. My house has a big yard which is totally and securely enclosed where dogs can run around and play. There are also a roofed patio, tree shades, and a doggie pool when they need to cool down.
Reviews
Kate is the best and takes such good care of my senior dog!
Kate did a great job taking care of our dog while we were away for a long weekend. I would use Kate again without any hesitation.
My dog Benny absolutely LOVES going to Kate’s! Kate is always so helpful and available whenever we need her. I bring Benny about twice a week because he genuinely loves being there and playing with the other dogs. She has a nice clean yard where the dogs can run and enjoy themselves. He always comes home happy and tired, which says it all. We’re so grateful to have found Kate — it’s such a relief knowing Benny is happy and well cared for.
Kate did a great job taking care of my dog Paavo. This was his 2nd boarding stay with her and he loves it there. We both highly recommend Kate!
