Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving and active dog sitter
I haven’t met a dog I don’t connect with. With other ten years of dog sitting experience, I have sat for a range of dogs, including puppies and seniors. I equally enjoy taking active dogs out on enriching hikes and walks as well as lazing on the couch, enjoying quiet time.
Cat care experience
Kate also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I value your pet’s safety, my safety, and the safety of others. Along with exercising my own judgment from my experience, I appreciate knowing how best to care for your pet to maintain a safe and happy environment - whether that’s crating your dog while no one is home, or keeping cats in separate rooms.
Ratings and reviews
Kate was great! Very flexible with her timing, helped with key exchange above & beyond! AAA+ will book again.
Always on time and from the photos and notes, seems like both Kate and our dog are having a good time on their walks.
Kate is great. She Remembered our dog even after 6 months. She was Right on time and has good communication.
A friend and I hired Kate to housesit and watch our combined 5 cats and 1 dog for three weeks over the holidays. Being gone for so long, we were of course worried about our babies missing out or getting lonely, and it turns out we had absolutely nothing to fear - the animals loved Kate! She was extremely attentive to each pet's individual needs, which gave us such peace of mind. She even took my dog with her when she went out on a hike! We will absolutely be hiring Kate again next time either of us need services.
Pretty terrible experience with Kate. Hired her to house and pet sit. Met her prior to the week we were going to be out of town and went over specific rules: mainly no unauthorised overnight guests and do not leave the dogs alone for more than 4 hours at a time. On the 3rd night away, she invited her boyfriend over to stay the night (which we did not authorise), nor were we told anything from Kate. With this flagrant disregard for our house rules and the lack of trust in her following our simple guidelines, we cut our vacation short and flew home. I would not be able to recommend Kate for pet sitting due to her lack of communication and our lack of confidence in her ability to keep our pets and home safe.
Kate is wonderful! I felt comfortable on my trip knowing that my dogs were in good hands with her. Kate is a responsible, caring, and kind person who I would entrust my dogs again in the future. Thank you, Kate!
