Deaf Gal from St Louis

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Katherine, but people call me Katers or Katie. I am from St. Louis, Missouri and I recently moved to San Marcos, Texas. I've taken care of any sizes of animals from small to big and reptiles for many years. I used to work for Pet Supplies Plus for six years as an animal room assistant, cashier, and sales floor associate. I've experienced countless of pet sittings at people's homes and my condo. I have a wonderful cat. Her name is Luna and she is a Tuxedo female. She is three years old and she gets along with dogs but unfortunately not with cats. Only dogs can be at my apartment.

Katers was great! She sent me pictures and videos of our animals while we were away and left our home very clean.

Do you no longer want to walk with Katy? I know I had said you could walk her anytime of day. But with the heat advisory, I think before 11 am or after 8 pm is safest. What do you want to do about the 7/12/23 walk I paid for but Katy never got? Mary Pope

We had to go out of State for a memorial service soon after moving to the US from abroad with our senior pups. We were very stressed and anxious about leaving our dogs as both have special care requirements and were still orientating to our new home. Katers was an absolute pleasure to work with. I cannot recommended her enough. She was just fantastic! She cared for our seniors, administered insulin by injection, cleaned eyes, gave pills, fed, walked and cared for our dogs by housesitting in our home for a week. Both Roscoe and Chase absolutely loved Katers. Katers was so responsive with plenty of photos, updates and texts on how they were doing at all times. This made us so much more relaxed and at ease whilst we were away. Roscoe is blind and diabetic and Katers took extra special care of him ensuring he felt safe with extra cuddles and couch time. In all the pics you could see he was in heaven. She was also a master at administering his shot. Chase was very sad to see Katers leave when we returned and is still looking in the guest room for her. We came home to happy dogs, a tidy home and have found our trusted US sitter! Thank you Katers from the bottom of our hearts and paws! Xoxo

I have a beautiful cat name Luna. She is three years old and I take care of her like she is a princess because she is special to me. She loves her self cleaning litter box. When her food or water is empty, she lets me know that I have to immediately refill for her. Also, I double check she has enough food or water before I leave my apartment. At the client's home with any animals or reptiles, I make sure their smiles are so bright.

I like to take any big or small animals to a pet store. I enjoy taking the dog to the dog park or a regular park and give more love and smiles. I will communicate to any clients to make sure they approve before I do anything. I have no problem to clean up vomit and poop during potty break. Please remember that I like to make animals smile so bright.
