Safety, trust & environment

While I don’t have a fenced in backyard, my dog spends ample amounts of time outdoors whether on walks or with a long outdoor tether that gives her plenty of room to roam. I’ve also cared for animals in other people’s homes if that is a preference. My animals have gotten along very well with other animals that have come into the home.

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets my entire life and have always loved having the companionship of animals in my home. I currently have 2 cats and one dog. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, rabbits and hamsters. I’ve fostered a puppy and a kitten as well recently. I love being around animals and will take great care of yours, given the opportunity!

Katherine was so great with our little dog Cava. Our dog loved her so much he followed her around like a shadow and at the end of the day Cava wanted to be by her and sleep in her room. I think our dog wanted be adopted by his new babysitter. Katherine is such a wonderful dog lover, she didn't even mind. We do not go places without Cava but if we do we would love to have Katherine take care of our little guy.

Katherine is wonderful! Sad she is a little too far for me to drop off and pick up 🆙 but highly recommend her to take good care of your loved pet
