Runs on love and dog hair

Pet care experience

My entire life I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs, and since moving to Athens, GA I have been a volunteer puppy raiser with the Guide Dog Foundation for over 3 years now, and have raised 2 puppies that are or were in training to be guide dogs for someone who is blind or visually impaired. I am a graduate of UGA with a degree in Animal Science, so I love animals both big and small! I have one dog Bobby, a Labrador/Golden cross, in addition to a golden retriever guide dog in training, who both love to visit the nearby Wiggly dog park or go for walks at the Intramural fields. My schedule is fairly flexible and I am available on weekdays. I frequently pet sit or walk for friends’ pups and would love to watch yours!

Katherine took great care of my two labs over the weekend! She stayed at my house and left it just how we did. She kept me updated on how my pups were doing and let me know they got the appropriate medications. She even let me know when there was an accident and did the laundry to clean up! I got regular photos through text, as well. Even though I was only gone for a couple days, it was nice to know my pups were being well taken care of. When I got home, they were happy as can be and didn't seem to be stressed by the experience!

I wouldn't trust anyone other than Katherine to watch my furbabies. She treats them like her own and I know that while I'm gone, they are being well cared for and loved just as much as if I was there. Katherine is the best person to pet-sit because she has excellent communication. I always know what my dogs are up to while they're with her. She also has extensive dog knowledge from being a part of the Guide Dog Foundation and her personal dog is so playful, he's sure to tire your pup out on a daily basis. I would 11/10 recommend Katherine for any dog-sitting needs!
