Pet care experience

Dog lover!

I have had a love for dogs my entire life! I was blessed to grow up with the sweetest Black Lab and my family welcomed a toy poodle to our family when I was 12. In the last couple of years, the family dogs have gone from 2 to 6 with the addition of my in-laws. I am at my happiest when we are all in the same house, each of us with a dog on our lap or at our feet. I don't know what life is like without a dog in it! I lost my 4 year old mini dachshund unexpectedly in 2020. Since then my love for dogs has only grown. I would love to hangout with your furbaby!

Katherine was so great with Cooper. She could handle his puppy energy and chaos. She communicated well and was flexible with our drop off and pick up times. She is wonderful!

Katherine took care of our five month old puppy. He was excited to see her and seemed happy his whole stay. Katherine kept us updated with photos and comments on how he was doing. She did not seem phased by his puppy energy and I think he came back to us a better trained pup than when we left him. We felt like he was in very good hands and would definitely ask her to watch him again!

Katherine is professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with. She really loves dogs and took great care of Bucky while we were on a long family vacation. I highly recommend Katherine and we will ask for her help again the next time we take a trip.

Katherine was so communicative and really helped to keep my mind at ease that my dog was doing well. He takes a few medications and is not the easiest dog in the world but Katherine did a great job!

Katherine was great and sent pictures while we were gone. Will for sure be asking for her to watch our pup again in the future!

Schedule

I currently work a hybrid schedule, working from home most days. My role allows me flexibility throughout the day. I would love to fit in a couple of dog walks and cuddles into my schedule.

Safety, trust & environment

All dogs are part of the family in my home. I will never treat them differently. I grew up with runners, so have no fear that keeping your dogs safe and home is my number one priority.

Pets

A typical day

I love a good walk. I am new to the area, so I am always exploring new parks and would love to take your dog with me. My labradoodle is very high energy so we had a lot of brain games that we play to keep his mind busy.
