Availability
I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s specific routine, whether that includes regular walks, feeding schedules, or just companionship. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine while they are in my care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it never feels like a task—it’s a part of my day that I truly look forward to.

Safety, trust & environment
I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, and get plenty of exercise through walks and playtime. I also give them lots of attention and affection, while respecting their personality and boundaries. In a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and keep everything clean and organized. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they are away. My priority is always the pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being, and I treat every animal as if they were my own.

Information Katherine M. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for any pet, I like to learn as much as possible about their routine, personality, and specific needs. I ask about feeding schedules, exercise preferences, energy level, and any special instructions to make sure I provide the best care possible. It’s also very important for me to know about any medical needs, allergies, or medications, as well as any behaviors such as anxiety, reactivity, or things that may make them uncomfortable. This helps me create a safe and stress-free environment for them. I also like to know their favorite activities, toys, and what makes them feel happy and secure. Every pet is unique, and understanding these details allows me to give them personalized, loving care.
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy, active, and engaged! Depending on each pet’s personality and energy level, I enjoy going on walks, playing their favorite games, and giving them lots of attention and affection. For more active dogs, I can include longer walks, playtime, and interactive games to keep them stimulated. For more relaxed pets, I focus on calm companionship, gentle play, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. I also love spending quality time with pets, whether that’s cuddling, talking to them, or simply being there so they don’t feel alone. My goal is to make their time with me feel fun, safe, and full of care.

Caring for your pets like my own
Pet care experience
I am a true animal lover who genuinely enjoys caring for pets and making them feel safe, happy, and loved. I have meaningful hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, Antares (3) and Draco (7), back in Peru. They were an important part of my daily life, and through them I learned the value of consistency, patience, and understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I am comfortable with dogs of different ages and temperaments, and I always focus on creating a calm, loving, and structured environment. Whether it’s going on walks, sticking to routines, or giving them extra attention and affection, I make sure every pet feels secure and cared for. I recently moved to the U.S. and am excited to begin my journey on Rover. I am reliable, detail-oriented, and truly committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I will always do my best to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
Reviews

Anavy had great time, communication was easy, got great pictures and updates throughout the stay. Very recommended!


Katherine has watched our pups a couple times now and we our very happy with her communication and updates while we are away. She is very sweet and we can tell our pups are well taken care of.

Katherine was so good to our girly. She communicated well and kept us updated. We were so thankful for her stepping in to watch Lola at the las minute and then with some other changes along the way. She was accommodating and great! We will definitely reach out the next time we need someone to watch our girl.


Katherine was amazing!! She took care of our boys from a last minute request and even did an extra drop by to meet the boys same day. She was wonderful with communication and took great care of the boys. Highly recommended!
