Information Katherine C. would like to know about your pet

There are a few things I would like to know ahead of time. I have a list of specific questions to share with you to ensure that there are clear expectations for your pet’s care. These questions include pet care instructions, typical schedule, location of food and toys, and other important details to ensure proper care.

A typical day

I’ll do my best to keep to your pets daily schedule! I am also happy to modify if needed. Generally we will start the day with breakfast and an early morning walk! After returning home from work I’ll make sure to let the pup out for a potty and exercise break followed by some playtime or cuddles on the couch. Then dinner and a final walk at the end of the day.
