I care for animals in your home where they feel the most comfortable. During a drop in visit, I will always send a progress report. At your request, I provide complimentary services such as bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, feedings, treats, medication, lots of belly rubs and/or pets, water refill, and playtime.

Information Katherine G. would like to know about your pet

Free Initial Consultation | Meet & Greet I come to your home and meet your family. We discuss any questions you may have while getting to know your pet(s). If all goes well, we then work out a schedule that best fits your needs.

A typical day

I love to make sure your dog will be stimulated physically and mentally. I will make sure they smell all the smells on our walks and have the best time playing together.

Katherine was an excellent choice for a drop in visit for our two cats! She is very attentive and interested in getting to know their specific personalities and needs. One of our cats needs insulin shots and I felt reassured with her skill set. The Rover Card was thorough and the many photos were appreciated. I will be using her in the future and I would highly recommend!

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.
