Katherine was absolutely amazing with my 12-week-old Cavapoo puppy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better first dog sitter. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. She hand-fed him his dinner, took him outside to potty twice, spent time playing with him, and even put him in his crate for bedtime. What meant the most to me was that she stayed for a few extra minutes to make sure he settled down before leaving. That level of care and patience gave me so much peace of mind. As a new puppy owner, it’s not easy trusting someone with such a young puppy, but Katherine treated him with so much kindness and attention. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. I’m incredibly grateful for everything she did and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and compassionate dog sitter!

Catherine took really great care of our dog. Left very excellent and detailed notes on the visits and also took great pictures and we felt very safe and secure that she was watching our family pet.
