Information Katherine I. would like to know about your pet

I am fine with all breeds. I think I would shy away from very high energy dogs as I won't be able to exercise them properly if I have other dogs in my care. As previously mentioned, we will walk 3/4 times per day, but I have a senior dog so won't be able to take the high energy pups for runs.

A typical day

Walks, yard play and small hikes on the trail behind our home. We can go to a nearby lake for swimming in the summer if permitted by the pet owner.

Lifelong dog lover.

Pet care experience

I love dogs and live in the country with a nice fenced in yard and plenty of walking at my doorstep. I understand that pets are family and I will treat every dog as if they were my own. I am reliable, patient and loving and will be attentive to each dog's personality and needs.

A more devoted pet caregiver does not exist!! Katherine will be a loving and dedicated companion to your precious pet. She is keenly attentive to the nutritional, hydration, and physical activity needs of pets and can be relied upon to do what is best at the moment for each animal she cares for. Katherine is highly recommended.

I’ve known Kathy for 17 years now. During that time she has always owned dogs. Her attention to her dog’s wellbeing is and has always been exceptional. She is a caring, compassionate dog lover with an extreme attention to detail. I would trust her with the care of my dog, and would recommend her with the care of anybody else’s dog. David - Toronto

Hi there, Kathy would do an excellent job with this responsibility. She loves animals with all her heart. I’ve known Kathy for 40 years and for many of those she’s had Golden Retriever’s that were loved and care with extra care and caution 😊. People will be so pleased to have her care for their pet! 🥰
