Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and am home most days, which allows me to provide regular walks, playtime, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention. I’m available for weekday care, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to adjust routines to meet your pet’s specific needs.

Information Katherine L. would like to know about your pet

I like to know about any special needs, medical concerns, medications, allergies, or behavioral quirks ahead of time. Please also let me know your dog’s energy level, feeding routine, walking preferences, and how they do with other dogs, people, and children so I can provide the best care possible.

A typical day

A typical day includes morning potty breaks, feeding on schedule, and a walk for fresh air and exercise. Depending on your dog’s energy level, we’ll enjoy playtime like fetch or relaxed walks, along with plenty of calm energy and attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and settled throughout the day, with evening walks and check-ins before bedtime.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and am very comfortable caring for all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I grew up with a German Shepherd, worked as a vet assistant in my teens, and dog- and child-sat throughout college. We currently have two senior dogs (15 and 13), so I’m especially attentive to routines, mobility needs, and calm environments—but I’m just as happy keeping up with higher-energy dogs who love walks, fetch, and playtime. I’m reliable with feeding schedules, exercise, and basic care. I also volunteer on a farm, so I’m experienced and confident around many types of animals. If your pet has any special needs or preferences, I’m always happy to accommodate—just let me know!

Katherine is a repeat sitter for my 2 cats, providing check-in visits to feed them while I'm out of town.

Katherine was great. She arrived when she said she would, took good care of my dogs and cat, and dealt with a somewhat complicated medication schedule.

Katherine took great care of Callie when I needed someone fairly last minute to cover for a quick 2-day trip out of town. She was flexible, had no problem scheduling a meetup prior to my trip, and sent great updates. Highly recommend Katherine !

Our senior dachshunds love Katherine. She is gentle, kind and gives the extra attention needed to our senior girls. We will continue to use Katherine any time we travel.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
