Information Kate O. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs that may require a unique approach to their kind of care and I will do my best to accommodate.

A typical day

My dog is a “pandemic puppy” with lots of energy, so I have learned lots of ways to stimulate and entertain! Going for walks, practicing tricks, and doing puzzles are some of my favorite ways to spend our days.

Pet care experience

I have helped families take care of their pets (and kids!) for over 20 years! I just moved to Westerly with my husband, rescue pup, and sweet senior cat and we just had our first child. I enjoy helping families with their fur babies as I settle into being a stay at home mom! Depending on the baby’s schedule, sometimes my husband does the visits for me or we all go together with the baby in a carrier— let me know in advance if you have any issues.

Kate does an excellent job with our cat. She is working hard to gain our shy girl’s trust and follows instructions well. We feel like our kitty is in good hands with her.

Kate’s first visit was an orientation and she was back today to run through the routine with me standing by in case she had any questions. It also gave my cat a chance to get to know her a little better. Kate remembered pretty much everything we went over during our first visit and did a good job with feeding my cat and changing the litter box. Unfortunately, my cat got a little spicy because she is shy with strangers. Kate took it all in stride. She was very professional and I plan to rebook her.
