I’m currently working a flexible part time job outside of the home and can work my schedule around dogsitting/dog walking so your pups will be well-cared-for! Our three kids are at school all day, so the dogs can have some quiet time, and the kids absolutely love coming home to play!

Loving mom of three

Pet care experience

My husband and I both always had at least two dogs growing up, and absolutely love them. Now we have three kids ages 9-14 who absolutely love them too. We don’t have any dogs of our own, and enjoy providing a fun, safe, loving home to our friends’ pups when they travel!

Kate is my neighbor and helped me care for my golden retriever. Kate would cover me on long vacations, short weekend trips to Boston or just a simple pop over and let her out. Kate was the only person I left Gracie with where I never worried. Besides being a natural with dogs having grown up with them, Kate loved Gracie. I would have no reservations about trusting my pet with Kate.

I have known Kate (Katherine) for over a year as a care taker and pet sitter. She is kind, reliable, responsible, trustworthy, organized and a lover of animals. My dogs are so happy to see her and likewise she is happy to see them. I recommend Kate whole heartedly

Kate has been dog sitting my energetic puppy in my home twice a week for almost 5 months. She is absolutely wonderful with him. She walks him and takes him outside to play while I am at work. Her communication is great and she is extremely reliable. She always lets us know how he did. I can tell she truly enjoys her time with our puppy. I highly recommend her!

We couldn't find a more ideal pet sitter for our dogs! Kate and her family took care of our dogs like they were their own. We loved that they were able to be with a family with kids to play with just like they would have if they were home with us. Kate sent frequent updates with photos, and we felt so comfortable being away and knowing that our pets were in such good hands.
