Warm extrovert with a flex schedule

Pet care experience

My family's mini-poodle, Mia, growing up was the love of my life, so I've learned in the 15 years of having her that dogs require confidence, warmth and assertiveness from their humans. I'd take the same approach with your pooch! As for cats, my cat Scout is feisty so I've mastered the art of coaxing out that feline love. I live with my partner and Scout in a centrally-located apartment in Cambridge with close access to transport and green space, but I unfortunately can't have other pets in my apartment (much to my chagrin), so I'll come to you for walks, visits, and overnights! I work from home with a flexible schedule so I can come to your pet's rescue, even on short notice. With me, your furry friend will receive just the right combination of pampering, snuggling, and activities!

We love Kate! She was the perfect snuggle buddy for my little guy and is very atuned to small dogs.

Kate was great! She listened and followed my directions and made sure Bodhi was a happy comfortable pup. She sent daily pictures and wasn't afraid to ask questions and check in.

Kate did a great job. She was flexible on pick up and drop off time and our often anxious dog was very comfortable with her. She was prompt to respond and provided daily updates.

Kate was very nice; easy going and friendly. She was very good with our dog Max. She sent a photo and regular updates of our dog's stay. We are glad to have found her and hope to ask her to sit our dog again soon.

Information Kate K. would like to know about your pet

I'm a light sleeper, which is good for the dog in case something goes wrong, not so great for me if they snore :) I'm best with small dogs who won't bowl me over but with big dogs, if he or she doesn't jump too much, I'm cool with it :)

A typical day

I'll take him/her to the park, walk to Harvard Square, hop in a Zipcar and go to the Weston Reservoir, or just chill on the couch together watching TV.
