Safety, trust & environment

My priorities when pet sitting are 1) safety and 2) happiness! Currently, I offer drop-in visits and walks for dogs, cats, and other pets, and I primarily serve the Scott’s Addition/Fan/Museum District/Northside areas.

Information Katherine H. would like to know about your pet

I’m happy to follow any detailed instructions you provide! If applicable, please let me know about your pet’s preferences/quirks (do they like cuddle time or high-energy play? any escape tendencies? are they shy with new people or other animals?), favorite foods/toys/activities, any allergies/medications, and your house rules.

A typical day

Please let me know any particular preferences for your pet. Since each animal has their own personality and preferences, I like to follow their lead—whether that’s snuggles on the couch, playtime with favorite toys, walks, etc.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs for friends, family, and neighbors since I was a kid. I also nannied for many years, which often included taking care of the family’s pets (mostly dogs and cats). During the pandemic, I fostered kittens through RAL, and I now have a two-year-old pup of my own at home.

As always, I am deeply appreciative of Katherine’s good care of our kitty. She communicates every day with a pictures and narrative. When we get home everything is in order and our cat happy and content! I never worry when she is on the job!
