Experienced & Loving Dog Sitter 🐾

I have extensive experience caring for puppies and dogs with special needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing extra care when needed. I understand how to comfort dogs who feel stressed or anxious when they’re away from home. I also know how to walk dogs safely and properly, and I’m very attentive to animals’ body language and moods.

Fantastic Sitter! She's considerate, kind, and a genuine person. She legit drove me home after I dropped off my cat. I can tell my cat was cared for and loved while I was out of town. Highly recommend!!!

Katerina was great - she watched Stanley for a few nights and was able to attend to his specific needs. We got photo updates and were happy to return to a happy healthy puppy. Thanks again!

Katerina was great!! I would definitely leave my little guy with her again. She sent a bunch of picture and video updates and was great about keeping in touch!

Absolutely wonderful, good communication getting everything set up and treated my cat as her own. Got plenty of pictures seeing how well my kitty was doing and I'm really grateful for the love she was shown the entire time. Will be coming back if we need a sitter in the future. Fully recommend. :)

Safety, trust & environment

I follow the pet’s usual routine and the owner’s instructions. I make sure they’re fed on time, walked safely, played with, and feel comfortable and calm. I pay close attention to their behavior, provide medication if needed, and keep the space clean and safe, whether in my home or the client’s home.

A typical day

I like to go on walks, play, do little games, and just spend quality time giving pets attention and love. and LOOTS of cuddles :))

Cats

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any special needs or behavioral quirks. I can only care for small or medium dogs, so unfortunately I’m unable to host or walk large dogs.
