Animal Lover! ♡
Pet care experience
Hello – My name is Kat, and I have taken care of pets my entire life. My mom had her own vet shop and did dog boarding growing up, so I have a deep love for all kinds of animals. We have a small dog named Nikki, and three great cats named Sushi, Luna, and Sprinkles. I have over two years of volunteer experience at the Pet Resource Center and RVR Horse Rescue. Through friends, family, and volunteering, I have obtained years of experience with dog walking, managing feeding schedules, administering oral medications, and senior care. I believe physical and mental stimulation is important to enrich our pets’ lives. I’ll provide cuddles, physical exercise/ stimulation, and brain games with owner-approved treats – anything your pet needs. I’ll treat your pets with love and care, as if they were my own.
Reviews
Very responsible. Lots of pictures with my pup. House was perfectly clean when I got home. Would use Kat again.
Prompt and communicated so well. Appreciate Katherine! Hope to get her again!
Katherine is amazing! I am in the Army Reserves and it was a huge stressor trying to find someone reliable to watch my two dogs while im gone for my drill weekends. She shows up when she says she is going to and sends photo updates if anything is ever wrong. I was weary at first due to my dogs large size (70 and 85 pounds) but she seemed to manage them just fine. She's been my go-to every month since I've found her.
Kat has dropped in to check on my dog and cat while I was away at work or at a friend’s. She’s very caring and reliable. She’d update me with pictures and texts. She’d make sure they have clean water and food. She’d take them to the backyard to play and use the bathroom. Overall I’m very satisfied and I’d highly recommend her

I understand that pets are family. Your pet’s happiness, health, and safety are my priorities. I’ll give them all the love and attention they need. I’ll make sure to always leash your pet on walks, check the surroundings for their safety, reward them with owner-approved treats, and carefully follow any instructions to ensure they have a great time.
Information Katherine B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know: •Does your pet have a usual schedule? •What do they enjoy/dislike? •Are they comfortable around other people, dogs, or outside? •What's their energy level? •Do they have any medical conditions? This is so I know what to expect and can keep your pet happy and safe!
A typical day
I love to stimulate pets physically and mentally. They can get lots of pets, play games and puzzles with owner-approved treats, check out new smells in the neighborhood on a leashed walk, and explore the dog park/beach nearby, if they want to!
