Rescuer & Cuddler

I am a stay at home mom who can offer a calm and loving home for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets. My background includes working in dog shelters, veterinary settings, and dog rescue organizations; I’m comfortable with a wide range of breeds, behaviors, and medical needs. I focus on keeping your fur baby comfortable and stress-free by maintaining routines, providing plenty of attention, and treating them like part of my family. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities while they’re in my care.

This was my first time using Rover, and it couldn't have gone any better. I left my 8 month old puppy with Katherine and she loved every minute! Katherine was sweet and kind to my little one, kept her on her routine and was very communicative. Her enhanced knowledge for caring for furbabies really shines through and I was never worried during the boarding process. Katherine is very accommodating and she will certainly be seeing us again!

I feel so good going to work at a new job leaving my Frances with someone so attentive and loving to Fran’s needs. Katherine has made a home so comfortable for the dogs it makes it easy to maintain Frans normal routine. I feel blessed to have so much care love and concern for my Frances while I’m at work and can’t be home with her.

Katherine was great with Uta. She were very flexible for the time and available for the news all day long. Uta didn’t have any problem with her dogs. I recommand.

Katherine was great! She made us feel very confident in leaving our Great Dane. She made sure she understood our dog’s routine and preferences. And she was a fast communicator.
