Pet care experience

Caring Pet Sitter & Animal Lover

I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10, and I’m the go-to pet sitter for many of my friends and family. Over the years, I’ve frequently dog-sat for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I love spending time with animals — taking them for walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, and just being in their cozy company.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. I keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and treat it as if it were my own — locking up carefully, keeping things tidy, and ensuring everything is just as you left it!

Kate did a great job taking care of our dog. We were gone for the weekend. She took the job last minute like less than 24 hours before and it was for the whole weekend she took him for extra long walks did everything we asked was on time very polite sent pictures and updates would recommend her to anyone probably going to use her for weekly services

Kate is a loving, reliable, and wholehearted caregiver who goes above and beyond to take stress off others. I've never met anyone who is more intrinsically motivated to spend time with pets than Kate, which makes her that much more responsible and dependable. I have had the pleasure of entrusting my pets to Kate's care on multiple occasions and I couldn't be happier with the level of attention and care she provides. She is exceptionally detail-oriented and is able to follow comprehensive instructions and schedules to ensure the needs of each pet is met. I wholeheartedly recommend Kate to any pet owner looking for a loving and reliable companion for their furry friends. Rest assured, your pets will receive the utmost care and affection under Kate's watchful eye. You won't be disappointed!

Schedule

I work full-time in a hybrid role, but most of my schedule is remote. This allows me to be very flexible with pet care — I can check in on pets throughout the day, go on midday walks, and stay overnight when needed.

Please let me know about any special needs, medications, or unique routines your pet has so I can keep them happy and healthy. I’m experienced with giving oral medications, following special diets, and accommodating different activity levels — from energetic dogs who need runs to senior pets who prefer a slower pace. Knowing their preferences and quirks ahead of time helps me give them the best care possible!
