Information Kate J. would like to know about your pet

I have no preferences when it comes to taking care of your pup! I have taken care of puppies all the way to senior dogs. I have only helped take care of a special needs dog once, so prior instructions to help your dog would be needed but will not restrict me from helping you out! If there is anything you feel I should know that would help your fur baby out, I would love to know!

A typical day

Your dogs typical day with me would range from running out some steam outside, long walks in the shade with lots of time to read the newspaper (sniff), and maybe even some nature videos that are loved by some of the dogs I watch!

Pet care experience

Taking care of animals has always been a passion of mine. When I was young, my family brought home Lucy, and I naturally became the main care giver for her. When I turned 16, I began volunteering at my local animal shelter which included walking, feeding, and cleaning the dogs and cages (and of course giving lots of love). Since going to college, I helped my dog mom friends take care of their fur babies!

Kate was extremely responsive at the start of our booking process, and she showed up to our scheduled meet & greet to meet my cats and see where things are in my house. She is really kind and obviously great with animals, and I was thrilled to have her coming to take care of my cats. I only had her booked for one day of care, and unfortunately, she never showed up. After the meet & greet, she completely stopped responding to my messages and did not come to take care of my cats on the scheduled day. I understand that emergencies come up, but I still haven't heard from Kate at all 10 days after the missed booking, so I have no explanation of what happened. I genuinely feel bad for leaving this review because Kate seems like a really nice person and I don't want to ruin her ratings, but after several days of deliberation, I've decided to post it so that anyone who needs 100% reliable pet care can know to look somewhere else

Kate took great care of Archie. She shared updates regularly and kept me up to date on how he’s doing when we were away!

Kate was great! She spoiled my pup, sent so many pictures, and was easy to communicate with!
