Pet care experience

Marley would love some friends!

I have a 13 year old dog who is my baby. She is gentle and loves playing with other dogs. She is also non aggressive with cats. I have always loved looking after my friends and families dogs and I am very patient and responsible. I have experience with large and small dogs. I am a full time teacher and am available to walk dogs before 6 am and after 3:30. My son would be able to do a midday walk. I look forward to taking care of your 4 legged babies just like I would my own.

Absolutely amazing as always. I had a need at the last minute, and Katherine was able to help me out with no issues. She takes great care of Skittles (my cat) and even though she’s pretty skittish, I never hear of any issues she has with Skittles. Katherine is now my forever sitter who I will contact when/if I need her cared for in my absence. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Katherine was absolutely wonderful with Dakota! She was so kind, easygoing, understanding, and genuinely caring from the very beginning. I felt completely comfortable leaving Dakota in her care, and she was great about keeping me updated and making sure he was happy and comfortable. What meant the most to me was how incredibly understanding and helpful she was when I unexpectedly needed to extend Dakota’s stay at the last minute because of the earthquake (in Colombia) She made the whole situation so much less stressful and accommodated the extension without any issues. Her flexibility and compassion during an already stressful situation truly meant so much to me. I’m so grateful I found Katherine and would absolutely trust her with Dakota again. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t recommend her enough! 🐾❤️

I absolutely adore Katherine. She’s down to earth, kind & loves animals. I was updated on her status during her stay with messages & photos, which made the entire process less stressful. Not only do I highly recommend Katherine, vjhh
