Pet care experience

Lifelong Pet Lover-31Yrs Experience

I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have over 31 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I've raised puppies, cared for adult and senior dogs, and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your beloved companion. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or extra care, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I do my best to keep their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I'll follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully, give them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and companionship, and make sure they have fresh water and a clean environment. I also respect my clients' homes, keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it.

We used Kat the dog walker for a time while I was recovering from surgery to walk Jack who is an 85lb 2 year old puppy. Jack is quite feisty and jumps up to greet people. He stand 5ft 8 on his back legs. Initially I thought he would tower over Kat. She reassured me that she had a lot of experience with large dogs of her own. She was awesome with Jack and Jack loved her from the start. She walked him 3 times a day, the last walk at 9pm every night She was always punctual and picked up after Jack on every walk and reported back to me the events of each walk. I trusted Kat to let herself into the house and harness and unharness Jack each walk and many times I was detained in my bedroom and I could trust Kat in my home to enter and return Jack without me being present. Overall I would highly recommend Kat to anybody who needed a dog walker or long stay minder. I trust her in my home and she never let me down. She is very strong too and can handle large dogs well because she is so fit herself. I would use her service again in the future when needed.

Kat has been instrumental in the luxury care of Bandit! She is the only one we trust with our baby boy! Bandit is an 85lbs mix breed that is super intelligent and highly emotional. Kat’s love for animals shines brightly and she goes above and beyond for Bandit. She was able to stiphen the separation anxiety and now anytime Kat is close, Bandit gets so excited and he knows that fun and safety are upon us. I could not have wished for a better person to care for our dog in our absence. Kat understands the importance of Bandit and she takes her job seriously. She has allowed us the freedom of travel without the worry . I recommend Kat for any pet endeavor, she’s great with all animals and all breeds..

I’ve known kat for 9 years and have been privileged to not only witness her loving nature with dogs but shared ownership with her and she sets the bar way too high when it comes to absolute best care in all aspects of raising and loving our furry friends. I sometimes feel inept at times watching her interaction in terms of not only needs but what our dogs are even trying to relay. I want to say I can think of no one more capable of providing the best care for man’s best friend.
