Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover happy to help
Hi! I go by Katya. I grew up raising and caring for two dachshunds - a mother and one of her puppies. The younger one is a senior dog now who lives with my mom - when I care for her now I regularly apply eye drops as her vision has worsened - to help keep up her quality of life. Over the years I’ve happily cared for chinchillas, pet rats, and also spent many years working with and caring for horses. I currently help care for my roommate’s cat. I love and deeply respect animals of all kinds! I have great attention to detail, patience, empathy - and I value comfort, safety, and a quality standard of life for all animals. I’m very responsive to directions and guarantee you can feel at ease with your baby in my care.

Ratings and reviews
Katherine was amazing!! Absolutely will be reaching out more for help 🤗
Katherine is a wonderful person to take care of the pets. She is loving, responsible, and thorough in making sure that a pet gets what he or she needs. Health, the right feeding, and recreation of a pet is what Katherine takes very seriously. The best part is that pets somehow feel Katherine's vibe, get attached to her emotionally, and follow her guidance. I am writing this from a personal experience, observing how well Katherine was taking care of my two dachshunds. I highly recommend Katherine as a responsible and loving pet caregiver.
I have known Kat my entire life and she has always been a huge animal lover! Now, she watches my cat Toulouse whenever I am out of town. She always takes amazing care of him and sends lots of pictures. I would definitely recommend her for any pet care needs.

Schedule
I work 10am-6pm on weekdays, so I am available either before or after that window to walk, feed, etc. I also get an hour for lunch so if you live near enough to me, I can also stop by to walk, feed, etc. during one hour of the day (the time I take lunch is flexible). I am also available most weekends for the entire day/can be sometimes be available overnight as needed. For boarding, we can discuss logistics in advance as my roommate has a cat and I am only home all day on weekends

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In my apartment, my roommate’s cat will be present. He is good with other animals and has been around other dogs before without concern. Depending on your specific needs/instructions, I can work to accommodate your pet’s comfort and safety. I can also follow instructions to keep your pet safe, cared for and comfortable in your own home as needed
