Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, adventurous, attentive
I grew up in rural midwest with dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I was a dedicated and loving dog mama to my beloved bernese mountain dog, Riker, for 9.5 years and I miss him very much. I enjoyed taking my boy to thousand acres, Mt. Tabor, and several other dog parks and we've gone on many hikes on the coast, in the gorge, and in Mt. Hood forest. I have special connections with my friends' animals and I've enjoyed taking their dogs for walks since my boy passed last March.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I respect my client’s rules, preferences, and boundaries regarding their pets. I will avoid places they’re not supposed to go, keep them on leash at all times, socially distance them if requested, and never give them treats or food unless given owner permission.
Ratings and reviews
Kate was so great with our dog! She was very communicative, caring, and reliable. We will definitely use her services again!

These past few months have been an amazing experience for Kate! She is kind and does a wonderful job taking care of our puppy Levi. Prior to Kate we faced a difficult experience with another sitter and were a bit worried when searching for a new sitter. We stumbled upon Kate and had a beautiful experience from then on. It was an honor to have her sit Levi and we will forever be grateful! 💗 Thank you so, so, so much Kate!!

I have personally seen Kate take care of many cats and dogs. I would 100% trust her with the wellbeing and safety of my own animals!
Kate’s provided exceptional care for our beloved 9-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog throughout his entire life, from puppy classes and training good behavior to taking him on invigorating hikes at nearby parks and forests. In his final months, despite age related mobility challenges, she remained patient, gentle, and attentive. She administering meds on schedule, assisted with gentle walks, and would send me daily photos that showed him relaxed and content. Our boy was always happy and well cared for, a true testament to her deep love for dogs of all ages. I trusted her completely and would recommend her to any family.

When I'm not in clinic I can be flexible with my schedule to take your fur baby on walks, check in on them to let them out, or schedule an adventure!
