Pet care experience

WFH Companion & Snuggle Buddy

I've taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. Family pets, friends and neighbors. I lost our two shih tzus awhile back and life just took over. I started a work from home job this year and realized that I would love a companion but with traveling, I can't make the commitment to own ourselves. I would love to take care of your furry friends while you're away and ensure they are loved and safe so that you can enjoy your time away.

Kate treated our one year old golden retriever like part of their family- and our Skipper had the nap of a lifetime after she left!!

Kate was great! She sent updates, responded to any questions we had and was kind and communicative. I could tell our pups were taken care of and loved while we were away. If we’re in the area again and need a sitter we’d absolutely reach out.

Kate was clearly a professional with a big heart right from the start. Perfect, safe house. Great neighborhood. Sent 4 pics within 15 min of dropping off my baby and I again knew, we were in great hands. Family of dog lovers and we will use her again next time we visit my sister. Thank you Kate!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large backyard and walking trails throughout our neighborhood. I also have a dog park in the neighborhood. Our family loves animals and we treat them as one of our own. I will send pictures as much as you'd like and keep them safe and happy.

A typical day

A typical day would be a morning walk and play time. Naptime while I work. Lunch stroll through the park followed by treats and snuggles.

Let me know if you have any special needs for your dog. I don't have a preference on breed but I am a small woman, so smaller dogs are easier for me to handle. If they are large, I would prefer that they don't pull to hard on a leash for walking purposes
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
