Pet care experience

Loving Friend To Beloved Creatures!

As an avid animal lover, I have been working as a professional caregiver for over a decade. I have past and current experience working for a cat and dog shelter, a tropical bird shelter, and for a local pet care company. I have experience administering medications and caring for elderly and disabled pets. I also have extensive experience in both boarding and sitting. In my book, no job beats working with animals and I love the fulfilling work of building ongoing relationships with owners and their pets. I’d love to get to know your little family members! 🐈 🐕 🐦‍⬛

Murphy was so happy to get back to Katherine's place he ran right up to the door - there was my answer! She gave him lovely walks, time and care. She's one of the best!

Katherine took excellent care of my dog Murphy. I got so many pictures of a smiling, happy dog that I almost felt guilty taking him home. Murphy will love to stay with Katherine again.

Katherine did a great job with Mazie. We could tell Mazie was really comfortable and had a good day when we picked her up. We also appreciated the photos and updates!

Katherine is great with animals! She has been a trusted sitter for my cat for a while, and has been very accommodating of all of her little routines and particularities. I’m always comforted whenever my cat is in her care. Katherine has a kind, gentle energy, and her genuine love for animals is quite apparent. She also has a ton of experience, having worked at various shelters, pet care companies, as well as doing pet care independently.

Schedule

Pet care is my full-time work, so my full attention stays with the animals I am caring for. I love to schedule in advance, but I have the flexibility to accept same-day requests.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a quiet, walkable neighborhood with a big backyard. The house is spacious for playtime, and I can always accommodate a crate if desired. I love to do a meet and greet for sittings to make sure I have a good understanding of an animal’s environment so I am equipped to provide good and thorough care!

Pets

A typical day

Every day is a little different in the wonderful world of petcare! I might be walking several dogs, doing kitty drop-ins, home stays, or boarding at home on a given day. I love getting to know each animal’s distinct personality; some animals want to spend our playtime getting good belly rubs or a thorough brushing, some want to play with their toys, some pups want to run around outside! I like to let them tell me what they like and the variety of preference always keeps me on my toes!

Let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, disabilities, or behavioral characteristics that I should be aware of ahead of time. I always want to be informed to the best of my ability as I accommodate each individual animal and their needs.
