Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care. Since every animal has different needs and routines, I take the time to carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and household rules. No one knows your baby(s) like you! For drop-in visits and overnight stays, I aim to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while they’re away. During walks, your pet(s) safety is my top priority. I stay alert to the environment, avoid unsafe situations and interactions, and ensure your pet(s) are secure at all times. My goal is to treat every home respectfully and every pet like they’re my own!

Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Kit! As a long-time animal lover with two little cats of my own, I'm more than happy to watch your pet(s) while you're away. My rates are accurate! As I'm new to Rover, I'm hoping to start growing a referral base. I've been a volunteer at animal shelters since high school, and because of that, I understand that every dog and cat has a unique personality and routine. I've gained experience with feeding and play routines, socialization, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Whether your pet is playful and social, or shy and independent, I'm ready to adapt to their needs. I’ll make sure your baby(s) get plenty of love, attention, and playtime, and update you with all the best of it so you can travel with peace of mind!

Reviews
Katherine was super responsive. Our dogs loved her. She sent several updates with pics while sitting of them having fun. Would definitely recommend.
Kit has dog sat for me a few times as I have traveled for work! It’s been great to know that my baby (my very cute but anxiety prone german shepherd) was with someone who loved them almost as much as me.
Katherine (Kit) has a way with cats - so much so that I’ve wondered if she might have been raised by them. She has the same tenacity as my gray (Finn) when he wants something (usually an absurd amount of attention) AND the compassion to scratch him until her nails pop off. My void cat (Baal) is super timid and never shows himself when strangers are around, yet Kit managed to get him in her lap AND send me photo evidence. She also tirelessly matches the rough house and play requests of my tabby (Tyr). No matter your kitty’s energy and preferences, Kit will match them. She’ll coax them out of their shells until she’s won them over, and you can bet she’ll worry about them with the same level of anxiety you do while they’re in her care (maybe even more). I’m continuously grieved that we no longer live in the same state to be able to call on her when my babies need sitting
