Must Love Dogs

Pet care experience

I have grown up with dogs as part of the family my entire life! Anyone that knows me immediately knows my love and passion for dogs. I have a very energetic 7 year old golden retriever who loves to play, go to the beach and go on long walks in the neighborhood. My favorite past time is to spoil him and spend our days outside running around and playing ball (his favorite). In addition to caring for my own pup, I have always grown up as the go-to dog sitter or dog walker for my neighbors, friends and family. I have experience with dogs of a variety of breeds and sizes and I have a special place in my heart for them all! I understand how special and loved your four-legged friend is and will provide the best care to your dog as possible. I have no problem administering medication or providing any special care that your dog may need. I will treat them as if they are my own (part of the family). I work as a speech therapist in a school and am available during the summer months for walks and home visits on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Please feel free to contact me with any further questions or concerns you may have!

Kate was friendly and a real dog lover. I felt secure in letting her walk my senior dog because I knew she would treat him kindly.

I don't think I've met someone who loves dogs more than Kate! She has experience walking and looking after dogs for multiple families, including my own. Kate has watched my families Yorkie on multiple occasions and does a great job handling a dog who has anxiety over owner-attachment. My family is always left at ease when Kate is watching our dog as she gives him plenty of attention and truly goes above and beyond. This is what Kate is passionate about!

Kate is a responsible and caring dog-lover. She owns a golden retriever who she walks, feeds, cares for, and gives constant attention to. She has had previous jobs looking after several other dogs of various sizes and breeds, including my golden doodle. Kate will make a great dog walker. She has lots of experience and truly loves all dogs! I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have look after my own dog than Kate!

Looking for someone who cares more about your dog(s) than literally anything else? You found her! Kate is easily the most loving and knowledgeable dog lover/caregiver I know and would be the perfect person to take care of your pup!
