I treat my dogs better than my fam
Pet care experience
I grew up with six dogs of all shapes and sizes, so I learned how to play and read their body language. I treat other dogs the way I wish my own would be treated. Most importantly, I believe that dogs are basically people and treat them as such. I'm high energy much like dogs, so we all usually have a good time when we hang out. If you pick me, I'll ensure that your dog will enjoy its stay. My own dogs have had negative experience with some boarders, and I don't want that to happen to your dog. I understand that trust you place in me to leave your dog with me, so I'll ensure that the dog is happy and ready for you to return.
Reviews
Katherine was accommodating and made us feel well taken care of. Even her kitty was a good sport considering the circumstances. We would be happy to board our dog with Katherine again.
Katherine and Lois, her cat, were great with Lulu! Highly recommend.
Katherine was great! She took great care of our two (energetic, sometimes difficult) pets with apparent ease. It was great to see pictures of our pets all together while we were away, and Katherine made a point to hang out with our pets so they didn’t get lonely, which made us feel like she was willing to go the extra mile. Was quick and easy to communicate with, also. Totally recommened!
Katherine was great with rose. I would use her again

Information Katherine K. would like to know about your pet
I don’t need to know much other than if they get along with cats, any special food requirements or routines to be aware of and any behavior quirks.
A typical day
With dogs that I watch, we’ll snuggle on the couch, explore farmers’ markets (depending on weather) and take regular trips to Lincoln Park (since I live in the Capitol Hill neighborhood.)
