Friendly, trustworthy dog lover!
Pet care experience
I've been lovingly caring for all types of dogs on Rover since 2016. I have my own sweet pup and know what it means to be a fur parent, I treat each dog I sit as if they were my own! I have a 9-5 as a graphic designer and truly do care for dogs for the love of it. Rest assured that if you trust your dog's care to me they will be given the utmost focus and pampering! I'm an experienced dog walker, comfortable with any size and breed. My doggie clients have ranged from 110 lbs to 7 lbs, pitties to poodles. I take special care to always carry a water bowl for hot summer days, and toys to keep them happy. I do have experience in watching after more timid rescues and high-energy dogs. My dog care experience ranges from my own 40lb rescue dog with a high prey drive, to taking care of friends' and neighbors' dogs of varying breeds (Frenchie, Boxer, Schnauzer). While taking care of others' dogs, I have experience in general care-taking (making sure they've got company and aren't getting up to trouble) feeding, bathing, walking, and petsitting/housesitting combos, all of which I am happy to do for you! You can trust that your dog and home will be in totally safe hands with me.
Reviews
Kath was amazing and I appreciate her so much. She was patient and understanding with my shy little dog. She arrived on time, followed all of my instructions, sent great updates while I was away. I felt like my dog was in good hands. I would love to have her watch Chloe again!
Kath was an outstanding sitter for Bruce that I’d certainly like to have come back again to hang out with him! She confirmed her stay a few hours before, arrived exactly on time, and was just as pleasant as can be! A real genuine dog lover! Highly recommend Kath to you! THANKS!!
Kath helped me so much on such a short notice. I can’t thank her enough for the love and compassion she offers my Athena. She communicates well and leaves everything just as it’s meant. Always provides photos of her visit and is so attentive.
Great sitter!

My own dog is on the skittish side so I am only available for house-sitting in a client's home. However I will fully be in your home, 100%! I make no other plans when I am dog sitting, my full day is devoted to caring for your pet(s) according to your wishes.
Information Kath R. would like to know about your pet
I can say that I love dogs of all breeds and ages equally, but I would like to know: -General temperament -Sociability -Anything I should know to avoid: Does your pup get along well with other dogs? Are small children okay?
A typical day
I look forward to taking great care of your furry friend! I am more than happy to go on frequent walks, play fetch, and generally run around and maintain a very active time with your dog if that is what they need, or just head scratches if they're more laid back and/or elderly. Weather permitting, I love dog parks if your pup is friendly and okay with a social setting!
