I am happy to take dogs to Central Park and go on long walks or play with other dogs. I can also go on runs with your dog if they want extra exercise. Super flexible. In the past, I usually take dogs on a walking routine around the neighborhood.

Love all dogs!

Pet care experience

I absolutely love spending time with animals. I have experience with dog and house sitting other people's homes and will treat your dog like my own :) I work from home and don’t have any pets so my schedule is very flexible. My partner also lives with me and is allergic to shedding dogs so I can only take non-shedding dogs for doggy daycare and boarding but open to any dogs for house sitting!

Katherine is an excellent sitter! She brought my dog to work where she works at a dog food company - couldnt be a better environment for my dog! He was able to socialize, had a ton of attention, and made tons of friends. Katherine is a great communicator as well which made drop off and pickup quite easy. Would recommend her very highly!

Kathrine was great for Charlie's daycare visit. Lots of pictures and updates and great communication around pickup/dropoff.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
