Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Katherine was fantastic! We booked a few months in advance. Our regular sitter was booked. Our dog is our baby and I felt a little nervous leaving him with someone new. But she and her dog Ruebin were amazing. Ruebin is super friendly and pateint with our pushy goldendoodle. Katherine made sure to reach out before our trip to assure me she was ready for my pup to come. Her house is beautiful and inviting with a large enough yard for him to roam and run around. She sent photos and updates each day which really helped me feel at ease seeing him so loved. She's a devoted dog mom that gave that same love and attention to our fur baby. She will for sure be our first pick next time we need a dog sitter. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
Katherine was amazing with our Golden Retriever (Hudson) and our English Bulldog (Willy)! This was our first time boarding our dogs with anyone besides family, so I went in with some anxiety on how everything would go. We were gone from a Thursday afternoon to Monday afternoon, and Katherine kept us updated every day. She sent photos and a video of our pups and let us know how they were doing each day. Willy didn’t eat much the first couple days, but Katherine went above and beyond to make sure he ate his food. She was flexible and accommodating when it came to adding a couple more days for the boarding. Hudson and Willy had an awesome time with her and her sweet pup, Reuben! We would definitely trust Katherine to care for our two pups again!
Great communication and a perfect fit for my dog. I will be using her in the future for sure.
We had a wonderful experience with Katherine watching our dog for two weeks. She took exceptional care of him, especially considering he’s older and a little more sensitive these days. She made sure he was eating properly and staying comfortable, and she handled his needs with patience and attentiveness. What really stood out was her consistent communication. She kept me updated on how he was doing without overwhelming me, and she was completely understanding when I couldn’t always respond right away since I was in a different country and time zone. That meant so much. Her home felt very safe and calm, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in a secure environment. I truly felt like he was cared for the way we would care for him ourselves. I would absolutely rebook with her again if needed and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring.
Katherine took excellent care of our Rosie. She communicated well and followed through with all expectations. There were frequent photo updates during our time away to see how Rosie was doing. Would definitely recommend and we plan to use again.
Katherine is amazing! So communicative and so great with our pups. Will definitely be booking with her regularly!

A typical day
I love taking pups on walks throughout the day and playing with them using their favorite toys. In the evenings we can snuggle and watch movies. Pups are allowed on all furniture in my home!
