Huge animal lovers with big yard!

Pet care experience

Hi! We are Kat & Kael. We’re animal lovers with 12+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats, both our own and for clients. I’ve utilised Rover as an opportunity to get much needed cuddle/play time with pets while also helping owners carry on about their day without worrying for their furry friends. We’ve cared after dogs of all breeds and sizes as well as special needs dogs, from 3 legged pups, to blind, from the elderly to healthy (and energetic) young dogs, to those needing to be administered medication. We’d be more than happy to help you care for your pet. Kale is at home full-time and I work remotely most of the week so we’ll have lots of time to give your pet love and attention. P.S. We are glad to answer any questions or concerns you may have and/or have an in-person meeting to meet you and your pet Kale is at home full-time, I work remotely for part of the week so we have tons of time to play with our Rovers! We have very flexible schedules and can’t wait to meet you. We have a very big, fenced-in yard where your pup can play and run freely (always attended by one of us, of course!). We also have a border collie mix pup (10 mo) to keep your dog company.

We've left our dog Milo with Katherine a number of times and every time, Milo comes home happier and exhausted from all the fun. He loves hanging with Bagel too. We always know that Milo will be safe, happy and be cared for like he's their own. Can't ask for more than that.

We left our girls with Kat and Kale for a couple of days overnight. They were responsive and provided good updates throughout the visit. The pictures they sent were so cute. Our babies loved playing with the other pups there and had a whole huge, fenced in yard to run around in. They were exhausted the night we picked them up. Definitely will use Kat and Kale again for our next trip.

Thank you! Redd is good and tired. Kate and Kale were easy to work with and took Redd to the dog park to burn off energy. Redd came home very relaxed and loving as usual. We appreciate the extra effort taking him to the dog park because Redd can be very energetic and loves to run.

After 8.5 days, my dog was really happy to see me, but did not show a desire to leave with me. This has never ever happened. Kat and Kale's care and affection (Lilly kept going to them for cuddles as we were leaving), the terrific company of their own wonderfully friendly, calm, and playful dog (as well as others), and a big yard, was as good as I could have hoped for. We will absolutely be going back.

We are huge dog people! We have a dog ourselves so pets are allowed almost everywhere around the house. We love to play with dogs, we often do “scavenger hunts” around the yard using treats. Lots of fun! We also have a big park and a dog park nearby where we take pups for some extra play time.
