It’s fireside cuddling season!

Pet care experience

Our house loves animals and by continuously having new friends come to stay and play (hopefully on repeat), my ever gnawing need to add more permanent fur children to my already hefty handful of needy four legged creatures, is somewhat eased! Love all dogs of all breeds and sizes. Owner of a very laid-back Heeler/Pitbull Mix (Berklee). Experienced with a wide range of breeds and not intimidated or fearful of any breed. Administering medications is a-ok., in addition to working with animals who have a disability. I drive a moderate SUV so transporting pets to nearby parks/dog parks is feasible. Open to working with individuals for one-off needs or consistent schedules.

What a fantastic first experience! Initial communication with Katherine over Rover was really easy and clear. When she came by for the meet & greet, it also became obvious that there's no such thing as "too much detail" to tell her in advance; and although our cats have some complex medical and dietary situations, it felt like none of this was daunting to her. A clincher was that our youngest cat, who's very shy and usually hides from new humans, took to her instantly instead of cowering in the basement for the whole visit. As far as we can tell since coming home from our trip, and going by her reports, everything went supremely well and there were no logistical hiccups, so we're just thrilled! But the icing on the cake was that our return home got delayed several hours later than we expected, and Katherine was *beyond* accommodating when we asked whether she could do an extra visit to feed the cats before they'd panic about starving overnight. She significantly de-stressed us during a very stressful situation on our end, and that meant the world to us. We will absolutely book again!

Kit is amazing! Our 1-year old golden retriever was immediately at home at Kit’s and had SO much fun. Playing with her dog Berklee all day was an added bonus. We knew she had a great experience when she didn’t want to get in our car to go home! We appreciate that Kit is communicative and responsive and will most definitely use her again! Thank you!💗

We are so happy to have found Katherine. She takes incredible care of our dog, Brinkley, whether for a week or just a day. We can be at ease knowing he’s in loving, caring hands and also having a great time with his buddy (Katherine’s dog) Berklee.

Kit did a wonderful job taking care of Gambit! He had a great time staying with her and enjoyed hanging out with her dog.

My full-time career (Realtor) allows me immense flexibility and I primarily work from home. My spouse occasionally works from home as well, mainly has Fridays off, and can also be of service if something were to come up and I needed assistance.
