I'm a freelance illustrator who works from home and I build my own my schedule. That means I can give your baby the care and attention they need all week long! Speaking of illustration, I offer hand-drawn pet portraits! What you'll get: ♡ 4"x6" (portrait or landscape) Color pencil drawing of a photo of your choosing ♡ Unframed, packed with acid-free backing board and clear plastic bag How to get one: ♡ When you request a booking, send me a message asking to include a pet portrait ♡ I'll add the charge to the booking ♡ Once you confirm the booking with me, I'll ask for the photo you'd like me to base the portrait off of ♡ The portrait will go home with your baby! ***Please note: I need at least 2 days to work on the portrait. If your pet's stay is shorter than that, I unfortunately will not take the request.*** I look forward to giving your pets the love and care they deserve!

I've had dogs all of my life. I've taken care of puppies and geriatric dogs with high support needs. My grandfather, uncle, and brother are veterinarians so I'm familiar with common medical emergencies and how to react to them.

Katerina was great with Ruby. She is a good communicator, she sent updates and picks. Would definitely book again.

Katerina was kind, communicative and Satchel liked liked her! We added on a puppy bath service which she offered which was a really nice touch. Great stay for him.

Excellent care and service—had a flight cancelled during the snow and Katerina was SO gracious and accommodating. Can’t recommend enough!
