Pet care experience
I have always loved animals. Growing up I had pets of all kinds: Dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, chickens, and just about anything else you can think of. I loved teaching my family’s dogs all kinds of tricks and performing shows with them. I dominated the neighborhood pet sitting business as a teenager and would sometimes have three or four clients a week. I have been a rover caregiver since college when I took up pet sitting and dog walking as a part time job. Now days, I work from home and volunteer for Soul Dog rescue in my free time. I am very active and you can usually find me out on a hike or exploring a new park. I have a rescue dog and cat that are my everything. I’m passionate about nutrition, behavior, training and enrichment. I’m on rover now to feed my love for animals and to meet other pet lovers here in Denver!
Reviews
Kate is an awesome sitter who responded really quickly and was super flexible when I had to change plans. She spends a lot of time at home with your pet and sends photos and regular updates. On top of that she is just a cool and nice girl who I would trust with my animals anytime. She constantly is educating herself of new pet products and ways to help with reactivity and other behavioral issues. I have seen huge improvements in her own dog Piper since she adopted her. She has become a friend and the first person I request :)
We returned from our trip to find two cheerful and calm cats, and what more can you ask for? Our cats warmed up to her almost immediately, which made leaving them a little easier. Bonus: Kate left our home clean and tidy.
Kate did an excellent job pet sitting for my 1.5 year old dog, who is still recovering from ACL surgery. Kate easily accommodated my dog’s activity restrictions and gave medication when needed. She communicated clearly, my dog was happy her whole visit, and she also left my house spotless. Highly recommend!
Kate was awesome with Jax! He is very energetic and she exercised him everyday and took great care of the house. Also watered my plants, which was very nice! Highly suggest having Kate watch your loved one. She will treat them as her own!

I live in a condo with a shared yard, which isn’t an issue because I’m out walking my dog 3x a day. I do prefer to see pets in their own home though because they tend to be more comfortable. Let me know what you prefer.
Information Kate S. would like to know about your pet
I love all dogs! I prefer to know about any aggressive or nervous tendencies. I have reactive dog experience but I’d like to know ahead of tome. Does the pet require any special care?
A typical day
I love throwing the ball, playing with toys and going for walks with dogs. I also enjoy enrichment games, taking dogs on hikes and obedience training.
