Pet care experience

Gentle & Compassionate Care

Hi! I'm Katherine- an experienced animal caregiver & veterinary assistant who provides calm, compassionate, & reliable in-home pet care. Animals have always been a central part of my life. Along with caring for my own pets and livestock, I work professionally in a veterinary clinic where I assist with patient care, handling, monitoring behavior, & supporting pets through stressful situations. This experience allows me to notice subtle changes in comfort, appetite mobility, or mood that others may miss. I understand that inviting someone into your home & trusting them with your pets is a big decision. My goal is to provide care that feels safe,gentle, & consistent so both pets & owners feel completely at ease.

Katherine loved our girls as of they were her own! Several walks, dinner, and couch cuddles. Will definitely book again when we come back into town. Thank you Katherine!

I felt so relieved having her pet sitting on my fur babies recent weekend and a fish. She texted me and send me some photos are a plus. I am definitely recommended her to everyone if you need house sitting or check in pet sitting. I trust her. Many thanks Katherine!
