Dog Lover Who Loves Walks!

Hello from this dog lover! I love to spend time with dogs and spend hours playing with them. We spend our days exploring the backyard, long walks (or short ones if your dog can’t handle long ones!) and giving lots of love. I have grown up with three different breeds of dogs (Wheaten Terrier, Westies, and Welsh Terrier). I have spent time caring for a sick pup. One of my parents’ Westies died at a young age of unknown causes and I was the primary caregiver for her. She wouldn’t eat for anyone else or leave my side. I spend time taking care of my brothers’ dogs overnight while they go on vacation. I love spending time with them and boosts my energy. I currently own a two doodles. One was born in November 2019 and the other was born July 2023. I have experience helping with puppies and staying consistent with training. I hope to meet all kinds of breeds and give myself some exercise and puppy love in the process.

Katherine always takes the best care of Teton and is super communicative and shares lots of pictures to let us know how he’s doing

Thank you again for everything!! We could not have found anyone better to watch Apollo. I’m so thankful I don’t have to worry about my dog when I drop him with Katharine and Zack.

This was our second time leaving our dog with Katharine and her family and we look forward to him going as much as he does. Apollo came home wiped out. Katharine went above and beyond accommodating our schedule the following day and was graciously flexible with the pick up time. We are looking for reasons for our pup to stay with them as we know he is so well cared for and we don’t have to worry at all when he is there.

Katharine is great! My dog always comes home happy and exhausted from all of the puppy playtime and long walks she gets.
