Pet care experience
I have lived with dogs and taken care of them for most of my life. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs. No dog is too much of a challenge. I have no issue with cleaning up, feeding or just spending time with any dog. I know dogs get lonely when their people are not around. I also know that being away from your dog for any extended period of time is just as difficult if not more so for you. That is why I'll do anything I can to make your time away from your dog better for them, that way you can always come home to a happy puppy (Cause lets face it, it doesn't matter how old they are, they're still puppies)!
Reviews
Everything went great. I am super impressed. I am brand new to all of this and very uncomfortable leaving my girl/puppy at all. Katherine made this process comfortable for me and my dog. She was right on time, very kind and understanding. She has been very professional and understanding. I appreciate her and trust that my dog is in good care while I am away. I am in fact looking for more opportunities for my dog and Katherine to get to be together. Thanks Katherine
Katherine was amazing!! Gave updates on the dogs and sent over pictures for us to admire. Would highly recommend her!
Katharine did a great job caring for our pack of 3. She was attentive to their unique needs which was a bit of a challenge since we have 2 seniors and a newly spayed pup!!!
Katherine definitely had her hands full with our pack of 4, which included an incredibly shy/afraid of strangers GSD puppy and a very old Bouvier. Katherine quickly won our pup over and was able to send photos showing Riley at ease and comfortable at home. And, she kept the routine normal so our older kids were comfortable, too. Definitely appreciate knowing our crew was comfortable and cared for at home when we were so far away.

I never take dog out of their home/yard while house sitting unless you specifically ask. While on their own i make sure to respect your wishes whether that be crating them or just corralling them into their safe space.
Information Katherine D. would like to know about your pet
What is your dog like around new people? Does your dog have any quirks that I should know about? (ex: they hate to have their ears touched; they only like their food if they think it is your food first?)
A typical day
I love to take dog for walks around their home. I make a point to try to avoid high traffic ares so that your pup can have a chance to sniff around without interruption. I also enjoy working with dogs on basic training. Even if they are already trained going through basic training stimulated their brains and gets them working
