We'll have a PAWesome time :)

Pet care experience

**As of 4/13 I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 with the Moderna vaccine. I am a current dog and cat owner and absolutely adore animals. I had a golden retriever for over 12 years and volunteered at a shelter for 3. I currently live in a beautiful apartment building with my rescue cat (who loves dogs but can also be kept separate, he mainly sleeps all day) right next to a beautiful park. I have worked with all different types of dogs and dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors! At the shelter I would walk the dogs, play with them, feed them, bring them for potty breaks, and clean the kennels. I have also house-sat, boarded dogs, walked dogs, and hosted doggy day-care with a variety of different dog breeds and personalities! Whatever you need, I'm sure I can provide it. I joined Rover four years ago as well so I’m very comfortable with the site and meeting potential clients! I am available for a variety of services-- house-sitting, dog-walking, or to take care of your cat while you go on vacation! I am a recent college graduate and currently work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. If you bring your dog to doggy day care, they’ll definitely get plenty of attention and exercise in the park and around the neighborhood! Whatever needs you have, I'm sure I have experience with them! I have plenty of experience with dogs in shelters, fostered, or rescued, so I am very comfortable with any personality quirks or specific needs they have! I have brought dogs to the vet, given medication, put on diapers, followed specific doggy diets, followed both strict and loose schedules, and I've taken care of all ages-- from a few weeks old to 18 years old! If your dog has any special needs to specific instructions, feel free to reach out and we can discuss how to accommodate your pet so they get what they need and are the most comfortable they can be! If you have any questions feel free to send me a message and I will answer as soon as possible!

Katherine is our go-to sitter for our fur babies (2 cats) whenever we vacation out of town. She’s incredibly attentive, accommodating (able to stay overnight) and gives daily updates with lots of pics! Another 10/10 experience.

Another perfect stay with Katherine! Lots of photos and updates during my trip and I returned home to two happy puppers.

Katherine was absolutely great!! She watched our pup the first time my fiancé and I both had to leave her overnight, and she definitely put our minds at ease. She followed all the instructions we left, provided regular updates, was very polite, and she was even nice enough to do a meet-and-greet with us before the actual sitting. We will surely be reaching out to Katherine again!!

Information Katherine O. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know about your dog's personality and needs they may have! Before taking care of your dog I would also like to know any quirks they have, their general routine, and their level of training (if any). It is also important to me to have any emergency contact information, as well as veterinary information, especially if I am house-sitting. What are your dog's favorite activities/toys/treats? If they have any behavioral issues that you are trying to correct, what commands or actions do you take to correct them? What other commands do they know?

A typical day

We can go on walks, play fetch, play around outside, and even visit the park! Whether your dog likes running around and staying active or enjoys staying inside and being pet and pampered, I will always find a way to keep their tail wagging!
