Information Kate R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any needs specific to your dogs that I can prepare for ahead of time. I am comfortable administering oral medications and accommodating physical needs.

A typical day

I most enjoy allowing dogs to be active in ways that appeal to them! Whether that’s a long, exploratory walk, playing inside or outside the house, or extensive social time at a dog park or regular park!

Lifelong dog owner and dog lover!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old (but would have started earlier if I was allowed!). I am extremely experienced in walking dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments as I grew up volunteering to walk and babysit dogs in my neighborhood and for family and friends. I cared extensively for my family dog who faced many health struggles up until he passed away in 2021 at the age of 15. Just over a year ago, I got and trained a new puppy from the age of seven weeks who lives full time with my parents while I am at school.

Kate and my friendship was founded on our mutual love for our sweet 12 year old yellow labradors. Kate spoke about her elderly, increasingly stationary dog, Ringo, with utter joy, endless compassion, and unconditional love. We attend a residential college away from her family so in the absence of Ringo, Kate devoted this love to every cute, bouncy puppy and peculiar, less popular dog she came across. Kate’s fun-loving, nurturing spirit was popular among the dogs. She made each dog feel as special as the next. Kate’s way with dogs is inspiring and makes me confident that she will make a phenomenal pet caregiver. I know that I would trust her to take care of my and any loved one’s pets.
