Highlights
Pet care experience
Full-time petsitter for 10 years!
I’ve been a full time pet and home sitter for 10 years with a client list of 30+ homes! I specialize in communicative, open, picture-filled stays with lots of wags, smiles and cuddles. I have experience in puppy training (obedience and agility), senior care and grooming. I work primarily from home so you let me know what you need!

Safety, trust & environment
Meet and greets are very important to me to establish a relationship with you, the owners, and to allow the pet time to meet me while in the safety and security of their owner, which is when I will ask for all commands, rules, routines, so on so forth! Then, when doing check-ins and house-sitting, I only engage in activities or take your pet where you have given the green light to. Your animal's safety and comfort is the most important aspect of the job for me, and this is the reason that I am on Rover so that you can rest assured your baby is going to have a home away from home or a best friend away from their family; therefore, I will never put them in a situation that I myself would not allow my own dogs to be in. You can count on me to make the best, safest decision to keep your babies out of harm's way or to take care of them when they don't feel good, and keep you updated every step of the way.
Ratings and reviews
Kate helped us on short notice when another rover sitter left our animals alone all night and we worked with rover to find a replacement sitter. Her communication was excellent and we felt our animals were in good care. She left our house in great condition. We would absolutely trust Kate to care for our animals again and would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their fur babies.
Kate did a great job! The house was clean, we received many updates and photos on our dog, the plants were watered and we couldn't be happier with Kate.
Kate was able to help us out in a last minute trip due to a death in the family. She was prompt and took great care of our dogs while we were away. This was our first time using Rover, and I was nervous about it, but it worked out well. Thank you!
Highly recommend Kate. She communicated with me throughout the entire process, and took great care of our fur baby and home. Definitely will utilize her again!
You can tell Kate loves and is good at what she does! She took such great care of our two labs in our home. She made sure they got all the exercise they need and were snuggled in at night. Kate is very responsive and had great communication with us. She even made sure of when we were arriving home so the girls were taken care of until we arrived. Highly recommend Kate!
Kate pet sat for my 14 week old puppy while we were away for a week. I was nervous leaving this young of puppy alone but I came back to a happy and actually better behaved puppy! Kate did a great job and I couldn't be happier. Our flight arrived pretty late at night and Kate made sure we got home safe and that the puppy would have someone there to watch her. If you are looking for someone reliable and that will do a great job with your pets, Kate is who you want.
