Availability

I work from home, so house/pet sitting works well in my daily routine. As long as there is wi-fi access, I can work out of your home on my stays. I provide occasional drop in services and walks in East Nashville, and serve housesitting clients where I stay at a clients home around the city. When I housesit, I stay at your home to give your pets the attention and routine they are accustomed to. Having a meet and greet for first time clients is helpful to go over everything in advance and to make sure we are all comfortable.

I take great care to follow the typical routine of any animals in my care when I watch them in your home. I look forward to going over all specifications in conversation.

Information Kate W. would like to know about your pet

How does your dog like to spend its time? What is their routine? Are there any health concerns I should look out for? How is your dog around other animals, other dogs and cats in particular? Is your dog anxious? If so, do you have any tricks or tips for things that work best to put him or her at ease? Does your dog have any health concerns? Is there anything particular that I should be on the look-out for, or take extra care doing? What rules do you keep at your house? I'd love to know things like if you let your dogs on furniture etc. so I can keep everything as consistent as possible while you're away.

A typical day

I am a planner and fun lover by nature, and I would be sure to plan out many activities that your dog would enjoy if we were to spend time together. What we would do together would depend on your dog's preferences - whether that be any favorite walks, backyard play, or spending time hanging around the house cuddling!

Pet care experience

Thank you for considering me for the important job of taking care of your pet. I started petsitting on Rover in 2015 after spending my teens and twenties caring for pets in my neighborhood and college town. Today I work as a full-time pet sitter and artist, after spending over a decade working in education. I provide services in your home - whether that be housesitting, walks or drop in visits. As a pet parent myself I know how critical peace of mind is when it comes to finding someone who you trust with your pets. I work hard to earn your trust and it makes me proud to know I can help you have peace of mind while you travel or work. I grew up in a household with multiple dogs, and have experience taking care of multiple dogs at a time. My husband and I are currently the parents of a dog-reactive dog (so I am familiar with helping those with reactivity stay calm), chickens, fish, and a cat. I am experienced in following complicated medical care advice. I have cared for my 70 LB dog (who has since the bridge) through multiple back surgeries from IVDD, and many of my regular clients require medicine and/or special skin treatments. I am comfortable caring for dogs and cats needing extra medical attention and rest, and am sure to follow instructions and medical advice to ensure your pets wellbeing.

Kate is very professional and communicative. She did an amazing job caring for our two cats. I felt very comfortable knowing they were in her care while we were away and would not hesitate to work with her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
