Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house with a big back yard. I have 3 english bulldogs of my own. I frequently volunteer and foster dogs in our spare time. I lost my English Bulldog to cancer last March and am very familiar with handling any sort of medical care due to the medical care I had to administer to him. Truly dogs are what make me happiest.

Please let me know any specific concerns or special needs your pet may have. I have years of experience will all kinds of puppies and frequently foster animals. Nothing will be too tough for me to handle!

A typical day

A typical day will be full of walks, wresting and playing with my puppies, and cuddles on the sofa! We will be relaxing in the AC and getting plenty of water after each walk… especially if it’s hot!

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m Mac, and I’ve been taking care of dogs for about 20+ years. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, from energetic puppies to older ones that need a little extra attention. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that’s taking them for walks, making sure they’re fed and comfy, or just hanging out and giving them all the belly rubs they deserve! I know how important it is to feel like your dog is safe and happy while you’re away, so I’m here to ensure that your babies are in a loving home. You can trust me to treat your pup like they’re my own, and can relax knowing they’re in good hands. Also, it says I have 4 dogs at home. I only have 3. I just haven’t deleted the profile of my late baby Sterling.

Katharine was amazing. She was attentive and Callie had a great time hanging out with her new friends. We were so grateful to have had a safe place for Callie while mom and dad a weekend away 🥰🥰

I can’t say enough great things about Katharine! She stepped in last minute to watch Rue and her exceptional care put me at ease right away. Her communication was outstanding- she kept me updated with regular messages and videos, which showed just how happy and well cared for Rue was. Her love for our dogs shines through her work. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my baby Rue. Highly highly recommend especially when looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! ❤️
