Availability

As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have more time to dedicate to your pet than someone with a full-time job. I have the flexibility to care for your pets during weekdays and weekends. This allows me to offer personalized, loving care and ensure your pets are never without attention.

Information Kate K. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care possible, I always appreciate knowing about any behavioral quirks, fears, triggers, medical needs, or special accommodations ahead of time. The more I know, the better I can tailor my care to your pet.

A typical day

I’d love to play with them, take them on walks if they’re dogs, give them cuddle time if they’re more chill, and maybe even do a little photo shoot for fun! I always try to match their energy—whether that’s playing with toys, running around, or just relaxing together.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Kate! :) I actively foster rescue dogs and work closely with SMRAS in San Marcos and BARC Animal Shelter in Houston. I have a special place in my heart for pitties and rescue dogs, but no breed bias here. Puppies, seniors, shepherds, rotties, mixed breeds—I love them all. I know every pet is different, and I love getting to know their unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, needs medication, or just wants extra cuddles, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos while you’re away. 🐾 P.S. 🤭 If your pet is a little outside the norm, feel free to ask. I’ve also cared for rabbits, horses, leopard geckos, and bearded dragons. :)

Kate was one of the most communities sitters i have! it was just for a day ( was working a 8am-8pm ) and she constantly took him to the park and was super attentive! Picked him up with a huge smile on his face!

Kate was so amazing with the dogs during every visit she updated me on how they were and sent lots of pictures. Great communication and felt at ease leaving my fur babies in her care. Will forsure use in the future!!!

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.
