Best belly rubs ever!

Pet care experience

I've been pet sitting and dog walking since I started my own neighborhood dog-walking biz when I was 9. Now, I'm a freelance journalist who likes to have an excuse to leave the house & cuddle dogs. My love for animals runs DEEP. Seriously. I always embarrass my friends when we're out because I have to say hello to all the dogs. I’ve got a one year old cavalier King Charles who is the most pampered pooch! I've worked with shy Goldendoodles and energetic Terriers -- whatever your dog's personality, I've never met a pooch I couldn't win over. I have experience working with puppies as well as senior dogs, and I can brush your dog, feed them, administer medicine, or even just play a great game of fetch. Let me pamper your pooch! Also, I give the best tummy rubs and ear scratches.

Katherine is an extremely caring and responsible person. I would recommend her highly as someone who can be trusted with your pet without worry or hesitation. I can not recommend her more highly!!

Katherine is so great with dogs, and our dog loves her! Her ability to relate to him and the love she shows is quite evident.

It’s important to me to make sure your pet is always in a safe area without any foreign objects they can get into. Also, it’s important I keep an eye on them when on walks, and around other dogs.
