Caring, patient, loving dog sitter!

Pet care experience

I am extremely passionate about dogs. I have had dogs for all of my life and started working with dogs about ten years ago. I just moved back to America after living in Asia for six years, most recently Taiwan. (I brought home my Taiwanese mountain dog Francis! )In Taiwan, I volunteered for an animal rescue organization called Animal’s Taiwan. I bathed, walked, and trained the dogs there. I took in foster dogs during the past six years, mostly senior dogs with a need for medical care. I have a special place in my heart for older, sick dogs, but I love dogs of all ages and sizes! I’m very a very patient, active, and trustworthy sitter for your pooch! I can’t wait to take good care of your dogs!

We planned a trip late and Kate responded to my inquiry immediately. She was able to come see my dog before the trip and although our dog is shy she warmed up to Kate immediately. Kate took our dog out for a good walk, which we saw through some pictures, and then played with her indoors too. I highly recommend Kate as a sitter/ walker and will use her again.

Kate was immediately accepted by the dogs, even the shy one, and was in great communication from the start. Highly recommended!

Kate was amazing! Franklin had a great time and she was so communicative while we were gone. She was also very flexible and understanding. We will definitely use her again!
