I'm currently home for the summer from college, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. I'm happy to work with a variety of schedules. Caring for pets is a great way for me to earn extra income while spending time with animals, something I've always enjoyed.

About Katherine P.

Dog skills

5 years of experience

Safety, trust & environment

For walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize your pet's safety, comfort, and routine. I always follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and any specific needs their pet may have. During walks, I make sure dogs remain securely leashed and avoid situations that could put them at risk. During check-ins, I'll provide companionship, playtime, fresh water, and any other care requested. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you're away, and I'll keep you updated with messages and photos whenever possible.

About Katherine

Pet care experience

I've grown up around animals my entire life, especially dogs, and have always been comfortable caring for them. Both of my grandparents have owned dogs over the years, so I've spent a lot of time around dogs of different breeds and sizes. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and understand the importance of providing them with attention, patience, and care. In addition to caring for family pets, I've pet sat for my neighbor's dog and have helped walk and care for pets belonging to friends and family. Whether it's going for walks, feeding, playing, or simply keeping pets company, I make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own.

Katherine has been walking dogs in my neighborhood for a while, and I finally got her number from a neighbor and reached out. From our first phone call, she had such a positive attitude and talked about the dogs she walked with so much care and love that I knew she'd be a great fit for my dog. She's been walking my dog a few times a week for the past few months, and my dog gets so excited every time she sees Katherine. She always shows up on time, is reliable, and keeps me updated after each walk, which I really appreciate. She goes above and beyond, and it's clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I can't recommend her enough!
