Animals are a blessing

Pet care experience

Hi! Oh boy, where do I start?! A day with me includes unlimited petting, lots of conversation (I mostly do the talking, they are great listeners lol), cuddles, and playtime. I have experience in administering medication for even the pickiest of pets. Family and friends have whole-heartedly trusted me with their fur babies. I can manage and get along with all kinds of personalities: high energy, relaxed, hesitant to strangers, barks-a-lot, licks-a-lot, shy, stubborn, and nibblers. Not only am I providing a service of taking care of your companions.. they are also providing a service to me: joy, love, friendship, companionship, and therapy. I truly do look forward to meeting and loving your furry companions!

Could not be any happier with Katherine's service. Our dog can be really sweet, but is absolutely terrified of strangers. Katherine's patience really paid off here as she somehow managed to get Bella out for a walk. Something so simple is a really big success for our family, knowing how Bella's personality is. Recommend 1000% percent.

Katherine was excellent with my 9 month old husky. She was extremely gentle and made him play and gave him plenty belly rubs and fun walks. We are definitely getting her over again and again!

Katherine managed to get my extremely shy dog to venture outside with her, she is very kind and communicates well. I can’t recommend her enough to look after your pets.

They will find a warm, loving, and caring environment with me. I think dogs can feel the vibe of people and their environment and they will be sure to feel at home with me.

I plan to do my best to win your dog's love! Treat them like the Kings/Queens they are. I always go above and beyond when I care for animals.
