Pet care experience

I want to meet your sweet baby!

I have been with dogs, basically my whole entire life, big breeds and small breeds and my personal adult life experience I have fostered reactive dogs (working breeds) My sweetheart relinquish is a Dutch Shepherd Belgian malinois mix. She is a rescue I adopted but she's also dog reactive. I am heavily experienced with the proper methods of walking and taking care of a dog reactive dog and making sure the dog is safe and the owner feels comfortable as well. I love all dogs to me They are sweet baby angels who can do no wrong. Personally, I'd rather stay in and hang out with my dog than go out to dinner with friends. I hope that you see my experience is one that is driven by love and dedication.

Safety, trust & environment

Let me show you in my personal life so you can see truly how much I care and value my four-legged companion- I saved up to purchase a home specifically for my dog to have a yard because she did not deserve the apartment life. The home well. It's run by my dog Relinquish- play time is Non-Stop even while I'm doing chores around the house. I'm throwing the ball as well and stopping to play tug of war. But she's also helping me with laundry too. She will pull my laundry basket to my room. I make sure that any dog or animal I am around receives my full attention and my full trust. I move at their pace. I want them to know that I am here for them that my attention will not waver. I want their trust to never be doubted or for them to feel unsafe. I make sure the environment I am surrounded in is safe even with walking. I make sure I communicate when I see a potential issue way before it approaches and will correct immediately our current activity to move to a safe place to continue ( I am using a hypothetical as well of a dog reactive dog on a walk). No matter what, I will always protect the dog I am responsible for and its in my care. I never ever and I truly fear ever having to make a call that your best friend has been injured. I'm terrified of that. It is my responsibility to prevent that and I will because I want you their best friend to feel safe to go about your day knowing that your dog is valued and protected.

Kate is an exceptionally loving and responsible pet caregiver with a genuine heart for all animals. I’ve seen how wonderfully she cares for her dog, Relle—making sure she gets the right nutrition, medications, plenty of playtimes, and a safe, happy home. Whether caring for dogs, fish, or reptiles, Kate treats every animal like family. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Kate is very gifted in handling dogs of all temperaments. She has worked with many rescue dogs and helped to re-home multiple dogs that she has fostered. Kate has a big heart for dogs and anyone should feel very confident and safe to have her help care for their dogs.

Schedule

In all honesty, my life and schedule revolves around my dog. I make sure that if I am gone for more than 2 hours that there is someone who will come to my house and let my dog out to play outside for 30 minutes or to take her on a long walk or both- that's just in my personal life. I make sure that my dog has the proper diet and I make sure that her training is consistent and she has a task and that she never feels bored and that's also how I am with every dog i meet. I interact with respect and I make sure that the pet is accommodated for its needs if I am responsible for it.
