Pet care experience

Lifelong Dog Lover in Southie

I grew up with dogs my whole life and have been walking and sitting for years. My own family dog is 14 years old, so I have plenty of experience caring for seniors who need a little extra love and patience. I recently spent time with a young puppy as well, so I’m comfortable with every stage - from energetic pups to slower-paced seniors. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels and treat every dog like my own. I’m absolutely a dog person through and through!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in South Boston right near Thomas Park, which means plenty of outdoor space for walks, fresh air, and playtime. I treat every pet as if they were my own, keeping a close eye on their behavior, comfort, and energy levels throughout the day. I always make sure pets are secure, happy, and well exercised. I also keep owners updated with regular check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing.

Kate was so calm and thoughtful in caring for Naia like her own dog! She was flexible and provided lots of updates. Naia warmed up to her quickly. We will definitely ask Kate to help us out again in the future

Kate was so awesome with our dog. She asked great questions, communicated throughout the day, and was very flexible with her schedule. Couldn’t ask for someone better to watch our dog.

Kate did an incredible job taking care of Buster! He is 15 years old and she was very patient with him. Kate made sure he took his medication on time and walked him daily, which he loves! We will definitely be asking Kate to dog sit and walk Buster again!

Schedule

Pet care is my top priority right now and I have a completely open schedule to reflect that. I’m available weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute bookings. Flexibility is one of my biggest strengths and I will always do my best to accommodate your needs!

41 to 100 lbs
Kate can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I kindly ask that all new clients complete a meet and greet at Thomas Park in South Boston prior to their first booking. This ensures the best experience for both you and your pup! Please note that for boarding and doggy day care I prefer small to medium sized dogs to ensure they are comfortable in my apartment.
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.
