I am flexible and hope to meet the needs of each individual pet and owner. I am happy to come to your home, or take your pets outside in various parks or beaches around town.
Information Katerina V. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know what I can do to make your pet comfortable, or what activities and items they most enjoy. If they have any specific needs or accommodations, please let me know ahead of time to make sure I am the right fit for your pet.
A typical day
I hope to customize my day with each individual pet. For a high energy dog, we might go to the beach, dog park, and a long walk. For a shy cat, I might sit calmly near them, allowing them to approach me on their own terms.

Pet care experience
Since I was a kid, I have loved all animals. I was fortunate enough to learn how to take care of multiple pet cats and rabbits in our home. I previously volunteered assisting in husbandry tasks for a bird rehabilitation center, and interned with a sea turtle conservation group in order to help save hatchlings. I also assisted my family in training our pit bull mix, who was adopted as an extremely anxious and reactive year old puppy. With compassion and patience, he is now a confident adult dog. I hope to provide that same compassion and patience to other animals in addition to my own. I have taken care of a variety of pups, from pit bulls to cane corsos. I love spending my time with animals and will make sure I do everything to keep them entertained and at ease.
Reviews
Kat was very friendly and professional, and most importantly our dog loves her. She spoiled him and took him on his favorite walk (he is strong and a pain to walk but she knew how to handle him and was not intimidated by it at all). she sent us pictures and I felt totally at ease while we were away knowing she was taking care of Rocco. I came home to a clean house and a very content dog so we will definitely use her again!
Kat was awesome with our dog and cat! Would highly recommend.
Kat was awesome while dog sitting Mabel overnight in our home! She texted us many pictures, asked us if questions if needed, and even kept us updated on Mabel’s skin issues and found solutions. Mabel seemed really happy while being in Kat’s care and we couldn’t thank her enough for taking such good care of our girl.
Kat is an excellent dog walker! She made sure our Mabel got all the exercise she needed during the day, and even stayed inside with her while it was raining to allow her to have socialization while our daughter was at work. Kat is very communicative and kept us updated on Mabel while she was walking her!
