Availability

I work full time during the week but would be home by 3:30 Monday-Friday and home on the weekends. I work from home sometimes depending on my schedule. My husband works from home so he would be home with your dog while I’m away so they would hardly ever be alone.

Information Katherine D. would like to know about your pet

I like to know about your dog's temperament, activity level, dietary needs/restrictions, and any medical issues in advance. I like owners to make a schedule of when they usually feed and walk their dog so they can stay on the same schedule while you are away.

A typical day

I take all my dogs on daily walks, I find this helps them settle in and sleep through the night. I have a big yard, so we like to sit on the back porch and play fetch in the evenings.

Katherine is the best!! She always takes such good care of my dog Maggie. She sends me photos of her playing and loving life in the backyard and it makes me feel so secure when I’m out of town. Maggie is always so excited to pull up in the driveway when we come here! It’s her favorite place to stay! Katherine is very sweet and very trustworthy.

Our Boxer is a rescue therefore has his insecurities, but I never worry about him when he's with Katherine and her family. Katherine always goes the extra mile to make sure Cooper feels secure, and her kids love our boy as much as we do!

Katherine did a great job taking care of Callie while we were out of town! She sent daily updates and pictures. We will definitely use her in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
