Pet care experience

Kat for Cats and Dogs!

I am an absolute animal lover and have lived with animals since I was 16! I love getting outside and playing with dogs or walking them, and staying in and cuddling or caring for little cats. I have worked closely with animals making sure they’re doing well and taken care of throughout college :) I will also always provide silly and fun videos and pics of the animals throughout their time with me!!

Kat went over and above taking care of my pup. Plus she stayed in contact with me, which kept me from worrying. I will definitely request her again in the future.

Katherine watched my pooch Bella and with every picture she texted me, Bella looked very excited, happy and loved while we were away for the Mother's Day weekend at that! Thank you soooo very much Katherine for watching Bella for me! I will definitely keep you as my puppy sitter! You were absolutely wonderful!! 🤗

Katherine was so sweet and made sure to keep me updated. I told her that this was my first time boarding Lu privately, so she made this SO comfortable and I got a bunch of super cute pictures out of it!

Before Kat moved to Alabama, she lived in the same apartment as me. I have a 5-year-old cat and was frequently traveling for work. Kat was gracious enough to take in my cat during these trips. She was very considerate about his needs and behavior and made sure to frequently check-in with me. My cat loved her so much that at times it felt like he would rather be spending time with her rather than me when I returned! Kat has always been dependable and I miss her, but I know she'll be great at taking care of other people's pets.

Schedule

I’m currently a graduate student at UAB with very flexible hours. I am walking distance from my work so I can always check back in whenever necessary! I also have a little camera set up in my apartment which can check on the animals as needed :) I am always spending the night in my own apartment and will usually be at work on weekdays from 8:30-4

Safety, trust & environment

When I am taking care of pets I make sure anything that could be harmful to them is put up and out of reach! I know some animals can be a little finicky and have some storage where I know they wouldn’t be able to reach. I also have a security camera in my apartment which I can access to check on the animals as necessary!
