Dog Lover Who Will Spoil Your Dog!

I absolutely love animals. I currently have a black lab and I love to just spend time cuddling with her, or going for long walks. If possible, I try to bring her along (assuming they get along at the meet and greet). I’ve noticed that dogs can wear each other out a lot faster than I can, and probably have more fun doing it too. Maddie gets along with everyone and just loves to meet someone new. For your dog, I will treat him/her as my own. I will play with them and take them for walks. I have no problems cleaning up messes, sometimes accidents happen. Let me love and take care of your pet so you don't have to worry about them during the day. Why I love dog sitting I've always been an animal lover. I've had dogs all my life and had two of my own. They truly are the best things that ever happened to me. I’m very active, so I would spend as much time outside as possible with your fur baby. My experience administering medication: I am fine with administering medication, but would like to have the owner show me the correct way of doing it before I start.

House Sitting • Oct 24, 2019

Kate was great and I returned home to a very happy and well-cared for dog. Huskies can be anxious, and being able to hang with Kate and her puppy was a great way to keep her distracted from our absence. So great to get home and have a happy dog and everything well taken care of at home. Definitely would do again.

Kate is great to work with. Our dogs love her. We feel completely comfortable leaving our dogs and our house in her capable hands. Highly recommended.

My name is Alex, and Kate pet sat for my wife and I while we were out of town. We had a meeting ahead of time so our dog could get to know her and they seemed to hit it off right away. She's amazingly patient with all animals (we have a cat too) and she seemed to enjoy spending time with our dog. Knowing that she was there and our pets were well taken care of allowed us to have a relaxing vacation. Also without being asked, she watered all the plants and picked up the mail. Two things I had forgotten about, so it was a nice surprise for when we got home.

It would be great to know a little about the dogs likes and dislikes. I find that dogs can be like people, sometimes they have fears of certain things or enjoy one activity more than another. And I have no breed preference as long as its a nice an friendly dog, I'm fine.
