Safe, gentle, & intuitive caregiver
Pet care experience
Mature and reliable pet sitter. I am skilled at creating bonds with animals. I have owned both small and large dogs, ferrel cats, ferrets, rats, hamsters, birds, turtles, fish... and I am very tuned in to what makes them happy or afraid. I can try to accommodate cost negotiations after the first booking when I know more about the details of the job. I am currently studying animal communication, I am an alcohol and drug counselor with an MA in psychology. I love to be outdoors and enjoy taking long walks and socializing with the neighborhood people & pets. I am available mornings, evenings, overnight, and weekends. I will also do any other chores needed when you are away. I am an animal rights advocate, I have adopted many homeless pets as well as owning purebred dogs and cats. I treat animals with as much consideration as I do people. I am good at being the leader and guiding fearful, upset or high energy pets.
Reviews
I have known Kate for 7 years, she adores all the animals in her care. Pets are so lucky to have her undivided attention- they are content, well behaved, and playful. Kate is responsible and very conscientious and caring.
I have worked with Kate off and on for several years. She is a warm and friendly person and a delight to work with. Where we work people bring in their fur babies and Kate is always loving on them and giving them treats. I think she would be a loving and responsible caregiver for fur babies.
Hi, I have known Katie for about 5 years now and have been using her services monthly.. She is loves animals and is very reliable and conscientious in her work.. I know that she has adopted several homeless pets and loves to take care of them, as well as the pets of others.. I highly recommend her for your services! (She is very smart too and always in a good mood! Easy to work with..)
Katie has been talking care of my dog and 3 cats for seven years. I am very happy with the service she provides because my pets are happy and well behaved. Katie takes care of my home and plants and brings in the mail when I am not home. I am thankful that she is reliable and consistent. I feel safe and secure leaving my home and pets with her for several days or weeks when I am away because she is a responsible person who will take care of my specific needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I will care for your pets exactly as you instruct. If you would like to them to spend some time outside supervised or you can give me your preferred schedule.
Information Kate W. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know what behavior or temperament to expect and special needs or preferences of the pets. I would also like to know any particular fears they have or things that disturb them.
A typical day
During our visit we will walk, talk, run, and set out to have a good time. Everything will be about playing it safe, being well behaved but still having a doggone good time. While socializing with the neighborhood we will enjoy the fresh air, sunshine, and watch the birds and squirrels play. When it’s all done we will get some fresh water and a snack.
