Information Katerina K. would like to know about your pet

Dog has to wear the rabies tag or at least I need a picture of the rabies certificate. Since I have 2 cats and a dog I can’t watch any aggressive or hunting dogs. I watch only one dog at the time, unless the dogs come from the same family, then I can watch two.

A typical day

I have big fenced yard and also take dogs for daily walk (weather permitted). I provide lots of cuddling and dogs can sleep wherever they pleases!

Katerina is fantastic! She takes excellent care of my dogs while we’re away. They can be a bit high maintenance, and she handles everything with care and diligence.

Katerina was amazing. She kept us updated through the whole weekend with photos and text. We were new the rover and a bit unsure but Katerina really made us feel comfortable and we are so happy to have found her. Will be booking with her again.

This was my first time leaving my pup with a sitter, and Katerina made it so much easier than I anticipated. Suki is usually a bit wary of strangers, but she was very comfortable and excited to be at Katerina's home. I highly recommend Katerina!
