Highlights
Pet care experience
Eager to hike with your dog!
In the last decade+ I've taken care of half a dozen dogs and nearly a dozen cats for friends and through word-of-mouth, including a very senior chihuahua who was blind and deaf and needed diapers changed. I always had cats and dogs around growing up, including two difficult dogs from shelters who had issues. I live with an energetic pit-lab mix, and my parents' three rescue cats are still my sweeties. In the past I volunteered at an animal shelter, helping to socialize cats and walk dogs. I hike every day if I can, so if your dog enjoys vigorous exercise on trails, I can provide that too!

Ratings and reviews
Kateri was a wonderful pet and house sitter. She cared so well for my our pup, gave her loads of love and fun even with all of our dogs quirks and needs. She was very communicative and we came home to a happy tired doggo. I highly recommend her!
Kateri is a lovely person and did a fantastic job watching our dog Maea while we were away for a few days. She was communicative and sent us pictures which made us feel more at ease. Maea really enjoyed her walks with Kateri!
Kateri was great and we hope to use her again. She stayed at our house to care for our cat and dog. She was a respectful house guest and gave us lots of updates on how they were doing. I really appreciated her patience with our cat and that she took our dog on some adventures!
kateri did a great job!! communicated well, followed instructions and bandit had a great time🖤
Kateri was responsive and reliable. Daisy loved her!
Kateri is a very caring and reliable pet sitter. She is gentle and affectionate with one's pet and communicative with the owner. I know my elderly cat is in good hands whenever Kateri cares for her. She does an excellent job; she definitely makes things easier when I have to be away.

Schedule
I'm an adjunct college professor and freelance writer, so my work is part-time or sporadic, with much of it being done at home. If I'm available, I'll have plenty of time to linger and give attention to your pets!
