Pet care experience
I’ve had animals of all kinds throughout my life and have several years of volunteering, fostering, and pet sitting under my belt. I love taking long walks and would be so happy to have a dog friend to accompany me. I’ve cared for cats and dogs young and old, and also have experience with rodents, reptiles, horses, and birds. I am interested in animal behavior, and I think that translates well into building trust with the pets I care for. Dogs seem to warm up to me quickly and I put effort into learning each dog’s unique personality and needs. I enjoy teaching dogs commands and love seeing their eyes light up with understanding as they connect a command with a behavior. I am a recent college grad currently working from home, so my schedule is flexible and I’m usually available at short notice. I studied psychology and found myself drawn to animal psychology and behavior. Rover has been a great experience for me and I deeply appreciate the time I get to spend with the pets that are entrusted in my care.

Kateri continues to be the bomb. She goes above and beyond and it means so much to know our pup is well looked after. Thanks, Kateri!

We have booked multiple stays with Kateri and she continues to provide reliable care to our dog Echo, and updates well. We appreciate her very much!

Kateri is really sweet with my dog and has been responsive and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Kateri was amazing!!! Absolutely would hire again!!
