Professional Dog Trainer for you!

Pet care experience

I have been a pet sitter since I was 10 years old, taking care of dogs off all different breeds and sizes! I am also a certified Canine Behavioral and Obedience trainer, in the process of being certified as a police dog trainer, so I am very well versed in all situations! I worked at a Pet Hotel in the past as well, so I have plenty of experience. There isn’t a dog in the world that I won’t love and I am excited to get to know you and your fur baby. I am a retired veteran, so I currently have no work other than taking care of your fur babies! I have a very open schedule so just ask! I have 2 dogs of my own that are well balanced, behaved, and other dog friendly! We both will treat your fur baby the way we treat our own; spoiled, loved, and cared for. We believe our pets are a part of our family and should be treated as such. Whether we are watching your pet, or simply talking them on a walk, know they will be treated and cared for as if they were our own spoiled pups!

Information Kate M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is anything particular I need to tend to with your dog, so I can cater too that. Does your dog need multiple walks to keep from destroying the carpet? Do they need medication? I am more than willing to accommodate, so just let me know!

A typical day

A typical day depends mostly on the dog I would be watching. If it is a high energy breed or a young puppy, we will spend most of the day stimulating them mentally and physically with lots of games and walks. If it is an older dog, or just one who doesn’t have much energy, I might gear our days to be more about a relaxing walk and snuggles and love. I think it is important to cater to each individual dog’s need.
