Caring for pets is a big part of my daily and weekly routine, and I absolutely love it! My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide plenty of time and attention to every pet in my care. I start the day with outdoor playtime or a walk, ensuring they get exercise and fresh air. Throughout the day, I offer companionship, feedings, and any special care they may need. With my fully fenced yard, your dog can enjoy supervised playtime, and I always prioritize one-on-one interaction to make every pet feel loved and secure. Whether it’s a short stay or a week-long visit, your furry friend will be my top priority!

Information Katherine M. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, it’s important for me to know as much as possible about their personality and needs. Here are a few key things I’d love to know: Daily Routine: What does a typical day look like for your pet? Temperament: Are they shy, energetic, or somewhere in between? How do they react to new people, other pets, or certain environments? Health: Do they have any medical conditions, allergies, or medications? Behavioral Traits: Are there any habits or quirks I should be aware of, like separation anxiety, barking, or chewing? Preferences: Do they have favorite toys, activities, or comfort items? Triggers: Are there situations or things they dislike, such as loud noises or certain types of people or pets? The more I know about your pet, the better I can ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care!

A typical day

Every dog has their own personality and energy level, so I tailor activities to match their needs! For dogs, I love going on walks, playing fetch, or letting them explore safely in my fully fenced yard. I’m also happy to work on enrichment activities like puzzles, treat hides, or gentle training to keep their minds stimulated. Whether it’s a fun-filled adventure or a cozy day at home, my goal is to make their time with me as enjoyable as possible!

Katherine was awesome taking Dexter last minute. He loved his walks in the beautiful park nearby and the pics were proof of that. Also his peaceful naps after playtime with resident pup Kosmo! Wonderful sitter and stay for dexter !! Thank you

Katherine has a lot of knowledge handling dogs. We appreciate her feedback. She sent us little updates on how our pup was doing. We will book again!

Katherine was great with Willow. She did drop in visits over a 24hr period. She sent pictures and Willow looked very comfortable. I will use her again. Thanks

Katherine made us feel completely at ease leaving Chana and Pancho in her care. She is incredibly professional and truly loves dogs, which gave us confidence that our pups were in great hands. It was clear that they had a wonderful time at her house, especially enjoying the company of her dog, Kosmo. We could tell that Katherine went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy. We highly recommend her and will definitely trust her with our dogs again in the future!
