Katherine is kind, reliable and conscientious of people and animals alike. She would be great to work with and trust with caring for your animals. She watches both my infant daughter and two pups for a summer job and brought energy and warmth to my dogs. You can count on her to be there for your furry friends!

I am most comfortable working with hypoallergenic dog breeds, but can work with others as long as shedding is minimal and they do not expect to be able to sit or sleep on every surface of the home. I am very committed to following preferences for trained dogs and will follow your commands but want to be very clear on those rules, boundaries and communication styles before accepting an assignment with your pet.
