Pet care experience

Reliable pet sitter

Hi there! I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I had my own dog for 15 amazing years and she was truly my baby. I loved spoiling her and making sure she always felt safe and happy. That’s exactly the kind of care I bring to every pet I watch! I offer pet sitting and dog walking, including walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of cuddles (if they’re into that!). I’m happy to stick to your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by keeping their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific needs, so your pet stays comfortable and secure. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication, and I’m always attentive to making sure your pet feels happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

Katherine was great! I was gone for 2 weeks and she took great care of Marlin (my cat). I got lots of updates and pics and knew everything was in good hands. I definitely recommend and will be rebooking with her in the future when needed :)

Katherine was so great for drop in visits for my cat! Booked her for 6 nights. She was very communicative & provided lots of photos during her visits. My cat can take time to warm up & Katherine was patient with her. There was also one night where she had trouble getting into my apartment & had to come back at a later time to do the drop in, which I really appreciated. I will be booking with her again & would recommend her for your pet care needs.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, medical conditions, or behaviors I should be aware of so I can provide the best care possible. This includes feeding schedules, medications, energy levels, and how they interact with new people or environments. I don’t have strict breed preferences but I do appreciate knowing your pet’s temperament ahead of time so I can make sure it’s a great fit for both of us.
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.
