Pet care experience

You're pup(s) will be spoiled as the only dog in our home. We currently do not have any pets of our own and have found it to be a wonderful advantage to dogsitting and loving up on your furbaby as they get to be the center of attention. I've taken care of dogs, cats & horses since I was a young child. My two sons, ages 17 and 11 are dog crazy and love to take care of and love up on all the doggies that come to stay with us.

We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog is pretty shy and nervous but she and her son were so kind and patient, taking cues from him and what he was comfortable with. Especially appreciated the responsiveness and clear communication throughout. We’ll definitely be back!

Kate was a wonderful sitter for Kenzie. She took Kenzie on a couple long walks so Kenzie could sniff all the scents of a new neighborhood. As expected, Kenzie had to acclimate to her overnighter by curling up in her crate for a bit. When she was ready, she gladly rejoined the humans, just looking to chill out and get lots of pets. I highly recommend Kate!
