Safety, trust & environment

I have a yard in a very safe and green neighborhood. It's not fenced in but we will be cautious on a leash as we are with all dogs who visit. At night, our cats happily stay in our fully finished basement so the dog will have the house to themselves. Our home is very pet friendly and can be adapted to accommodate needs.

Pets

Your pet's care is my top priority!

Pet care experience

Caring for animals is one of the joys of life. From the time I was little, I've either owned or been responsible for dogs and cats, from newborn rescues to older animals looking for a shot at a beter family and life. I match my pace to care for the animal in the way that works for them. Sometimes that means cuddles and pets, other times chasing a ball or going for a run. I'd be honored to learn about your pet(s) and give them the care they deserve - and that you deserve to know that they are in good hands!

Kate is amazingly caring and attentive to our girl Cali. She communicates regularly and goes above and beyond each time we’ve used her. Highly recommend!

Kate was wonderfully communicative and took great care of our two cats over the holidays. She is clearly very passionate and caring about her work when petsitting.
