Information Katharine G. would like to know about your pet

I need to know any specific care requirements for your pet. This includes: their age and their health conditions/medications, any disabilities, and personality (if they are aggressive, friendly with other people or animals/pets, and if they are scared of big groups of people or other animals/pets etc.)

A typical day

I can go on both walks and runs with dogs. I can also play with dogs while out on a walk or run. Runs and walks will always be with a leash on, unless off-leash is requested. When playing, dogs will be taken to a fully fenced dog park.

Pet care experience

I am 27 years old and I grew up with 2 dogs in the house, both toy poodles. Since I was little I began to learn how to take care of my dogs, like feeding and bathing. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages. I have experience taking care of senior dogs who have lost most of their hearing and sight. I have experience walking dogs up to 100 lb. I can easily handle dogs that are reactive or pull on the leash.

Katherine has been walking out dog for 2 years. She is fantastic with our neurotic greyhound. Reliable and very good with dogs

I am a repeat customer of Katharine. I can go away knowing that my animals are cared for. She is always on time for her visits and updates their cards with photos. Highly recommended.

Katharine was so great with our dog on his walks. Henry is always so excited when he sees Katharine come to the door and always tries to extend the walk when it’s done! We would absolutely use Katharine again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
