Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal-Loving College Graduate
French and Spanish Speaking Lots of experience with anxious/nervous animals. A little more about me: I volunteered at an animal shelter throughout high school and had two dogs of my own. My first dog, Daisy, was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I then fostered and adopted Howie, a Chiweenie, in 2020. Both have since crossed over the Rainbow Bridge, and I miss them every day. I have regularly dog sat for neighbors, friends, and even professors in college. I love all animals of all shapes and sizes and would love to take care of your furry friend!

Ratings and reviews
Did everything we asked, thanks Katherine!



Great job. Thank you for the photos. And the little live update on the camera. Jake seems very happy with you.

Although it was the first Dogsit and a couple of snags Tiny loved playing with her so much she was passed out when I got home

Katherine was incredibly accommodating and was very thorough to make sure she was giving Caesar the best care. She even stayed additional time to make sure Caesar had company. 100% would book again and highly recommend!

Katherine was great! On time and made sure Moxie got water in the heat. <3
I am pleased to recommend my Kate for a position with Rover. Since I've known her, age 11, she has always had a natural connection with animals and demonstrates an exceptional level of compassion, patience, and responsibility in her interactions with them. Throughout the years, (11 total, she's now 22), I have watched her care for both her own pets and those belonging to family and friends. She is attentive to their needs, mindful of their routines, and genuinely enjoys spending time with animals of all kinds. Whether it’s taking dogs for walks, ensuring pets are fed and comfortable, or simply providing companionship, she approaches every task with kindness and dedication. What stands out most is her caring nature. She has a gentle demeanor, a strong sense of empathy, and a genuine desire to ensure animals feel safe, loved, and well cared for. She is dependable, trustworthy, and takes her responsibilities seriously. I am confident that any pet owner would feel comfortable leaving their beloved animals in her care. She will treat them as if they were her own and provide the attention, affection, and reliability that every pet deserves. I highly recommend her for Rover and believe she will be an excellent caregiver for both pets and their owners.
