Happy to help with your pet's needs

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs and cats, young and old, and have house-sat for years. I have experience administering both oral and injected medication to dogs, and am happy to aid in training for mental stimulation as well.

Katherine was very sweet but was not very responsive on several of the days until after 3 pm. So I don’t know if she was sleeping, taking care of the dogs or what. The last day she was supposed to leave at 3 but overslept and my mother had to wake her at 4 pm and then had to gather her things and do all her dishes in the sink from the week. I have no idea if the dogs were given breakfast out let out to the bathroom before my mother arrived.

Katherine was great with my dogs Bo & Winston! She sent great updates of my pups and made them feel as if I wasn’t even out of town for the weekend! I definitely recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

In a client's home, I follow their preference in feeding and play locations. I can re-crate pets if that is required, but if I am spending time with your pet, I prefer to let them out within eyeshot. I'm a couch potato by nature, but also love a good session of tug-of-war or fetch.

Information Katherine S. would like to know about your pet

•What are your pet's habits or quirks? •Do they have any spots on their body they don't like to be touched? •What's your favorite story about your pet?

A typical day

[to be revised] I take a little while to wake up, but once I'm up, your pet becomes my priority. I feed them before myself, make sure they get their business done, then head to work (if scheduled that day). When I'm home, I prefer to hang out with your pet, whether it's playing or cuddling or minding our own businesses.
