Hi, I'm Kate and I can't wait to meet you and your pup. I'm one of "those dog ladies," you know, the ladies at the dog park who love up on all of the dogs? Obviously, your pup isn't just another dog at the park! Your baby is extra special and I will give him/her the royal treatment. I'm an expert at snuggles and behind-the-ear skritches. I have had dogs in my life for several years. My first dog was a rescued pit bull from the San Francisco SPCA. Now I have a blind pug and a three-legged 85 lbs. mutt who I adopted from the Nebraska Humane Society. I am comfortable with all types of dogs including ones with disabilities. I dog-sit for my friends when they are out of town including two anti-social chihuahuas. I understand that every dog is different and I completely understand what it's like as a guardian to leave your dogs with a sitter. I'm a single 30-something who works from home as a freelance writer so my schedule is really flexible. Your dog will be my #1 priority and focus when in my care. My goal is to keep your pup happy and safe. I'm pretty active so I am happy to work with high-energy dogs but I'm also good with chilling out with older/more laid-back dogs.
