Bringing you a PAWS-itive time

Pet care experience

I am a recent Masters graduate in biology and have been pet sitting for over a decade. I myself have had a variety of pets in my life with varying medical needs. I know how important it is to have someone come over whom you trust your pet with. I believe in communication, caring for your pets in a loving way and ensuring you are comfortable with the level of care you are receiving for your fur babies. I can send photos of your pets whenever I care for them as I know my current clients always appreciate that. I am an active person and enjoy doing different activities. I also have experience handling senior dogs, dogs with breathing problems, and dogs with incontinent issues. I hope you choose me to care for your dog(s).

Safety, trust & environment

I am very attentive to detail while caring for a dog or cat. I want to ensure while we are walking that they are safe, and we walk in safe areas. When I am at another’s home I ensure that nothing is left out that could harm the animal when I leave. I also am sure to avoid allergens to pets and humans in the house.

Information Katherine F. would like to know about your pet

In order to make sure I care for your dog in the best way I would love to know more to ensure I provide appropriate care. Such as any allergies, fears, triggers, exercise intolerance, and anything your dog loves! I understand every animal is unique, so I would love to know what makes your dog happy!

A typical day

I will ensure to go over areas of the city you are comfortable with having your dogs walked. Similarly, will ensure there are areas we avoid if there was an uncomfortable situation occurring there before. Your peace of mind is important to me. I remember leaving my dogs with sitters before, and I want you to feel comfortable every step of the way. Walks, small jogs, catch, frisbee and cuddles are all activities I am comfortable engaging your dog in. I also am always open to new experiences and activities you would like from me for your dog.
