Pet care experience

Not just pets they're family🐾❤

What sets me apart is the level of care and experience I bring to every pet. With over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and animals requiring extra patience or special care, including administering basic medications, maintaining routines, and providing calm, loving attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own—because they aren’t just pets, they’re family. Pet parents can feel confident knowing their furry family member is safe, loved, and well cared for while they’re away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by following their established routines as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on consistency, cleanliness, and attentive care. Because I’m home and available, pets receive consistent attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. Whether it’s following feeding schedules, providing affection, or simply offering a calm presence, I’m able to give each pet the time and love they deserve. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s what I love.

Kathe did a phenomenal job checking in on my kitties. She provided daily updates and pictures, with little bits of how each cat was doing. I would trust her to watch them again any time.

Kathe is an outstanding care giver in every possible way! She was so in-tune with our dogs’ needs and wants—she made sure to give plenty of playtime with our energetic border collie and lots of TLC to our elderly lab. We felt so secure and carefree knowing she was taking care of everything!

Kathe was fantastic with Trail! He gets so lonely by himself and she was great about giving him attention with playtime, his treat puzzles, couch snuggles, and nature shows. She was so thoughtful to his needs and our requests. We are grateful and would happily book again!

Schedule

As a retiree, I’m fortunate to have the time and flexibility to fully dedicate my days to pet care. Spending time with animals is truly what makes me happiest, and caring for them is a natural and joyful part of my daily routine. Because I’m home and available, pets receive consistent attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. Whether it’s following feeding schedules, providing affection, or simply offering a calm presence, I’m able to give each pet the time and love they deserve. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s what I love.
