Safety, trust & environment

I like to make sure that pets are comfortable in their own home. This includes smothering them with attention (if they like it), or admiring from afar (if they don't). I am a non-smoker but do come from a house with cats, so please keep that in mind. In my own home, I clean my pets' litter after every session and check multiple times a day on their food and water. I make sure to spend alone time with each pet so their emotional needs are met. They're more than eye candy, they're our family.

Information Katharine S. would like to know about your pet

Some pets are picky! Since I'm coming into their home, if there are any specific diets or routines, please let me know! I will adapt for any situation.

A typical day

Activities done with pets depend on their personalities. Some pets like to lounge around with me on the couch, while others zoom around. With cats, I like to brush them, play with string, and even wrestle with them. With dogs, I like to take them out for walks and play tug-o'-war with them. Previous customers had me drive their dogs down the road to the creek and walk trails near there. It's a win-win, because I get some steps in, too!

Pet care experience

Hi, my name's Kat, and I just recently moved to MI. I have 3 cats of my own. Sometimes, it's hard to leave the house wondering if your pet is going to be bored or anxious. I would like to extend my services to ensure that this is one less thing you have to worry about!

She took care of my dog as her own! She was preset on time and very attentive with nala’s needs. She played with Nala and made sure to get the energy out. kept the house clean.

Katharine is my sister who is a great mom cat and an amazing aunt to my dog. Katharine has trained her cats to go on leashes and take walks with her which is a skill many cat parents cannot take on. I live far away from Katharine, but whenever I'm home visiting her, she's the first to step up and make sure my dog, Bella, is taken care of. They go on walks together and Bella loves cuddling and watching movies with my sister. Even if I'm not around, I trust my sister 100% with my dog. They have gone on walks and car rides without me and I never once had to worry about my dog's safety. Katharine is the perfect fit for a responsible and loving pet caregiver.
