I was a dog in a previous life!

Pet care experience

My name is Kate and I used to be an emergency vet tech. I switched over to human patients and pretty much all the time miss interacting with other people's animals! I am available pretty much any time and I can dogsit at your place or mine, depending on what your needs are. I can handle "special needs" dogs, be they physical or emotional and can make sure your pet gets any needed medications. I have my own reliable transportation to assist with meeting your needs. I can help with kitties too! Why I love dog sitting I can not remember a time when I didn't love dogs. As a kid, I roamed my neighborhood and walked many of my neighbors' dogs every day. For a long time, most of my friends were people I had met through their dogs. I worked for awhile as a groomer and then worked as a vet tech for eight years before moving to human medicine. My experience administering medication: I am, even with difficult dogs who hate getting medicated. I have years of experience doing this as a vet tech.

Kat and Tom were great. Lucy did great there and was well taken care of. We will definitely book Kate again.

We love Kate. We can trust her with our fur baby and the whole drop off and pick up process is simple. Our go to sitter for sure!

Information Kate P. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog's temperament, special needs or quirks and how your dog interacts with other dogs. I might also like to know how your dog gets into trouble at home so I have a leg up on him while you're away! I do not have any breed preferences. The hundreds of breeds are part of the fun of the human-animal relationship!

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog 30-60 minutes? This is negotiable depending on my schedule and the needs or your dog(s). Extra house-sitting services I can bring in mail and take care of kitties or other small pets.
