Reliable and caring pet sitter

Pet care experience

As a daughter of a veterinarian, I've been asked to care for pets from a young age. I enjoy getting to know the personality of every pet and learning their routines. I know what it's like to worry about an anxious pet while I'm out, so I strive to provide high-quality care and communication to put you at ease.

Kat is a good communicator, friendly, and nice to work with while away. She provides updates, checks in about anything that might be amiss, and offers to do little touches that inspires confidence. We’re a repeat client and will be booking with her again in the future.

Katherine was a great communicator and super friendly. Upon meeting her, she made me feel very comfortable leaving my cats in her care. I’d definitely recommend and rebook with her for future visits.

Katherine was great! Very communicative and loved that she sent pictures while we were away. House and animals were in good hands-hope to work with her again in the future.

Kat was great with my two dogs and took great care of them and my home. I have an old dog that has medical issues that require meds and…let’s say special bathroom care. She was completely unfazed by both. She sent cute pics of my pups and kept me updated everyday I was gone. Definitely will book again!

I aim to leave the home the same or better than I found it. Replicating the pets' normal routine, as much as possible, is an approach I find successful.

Information Katherine S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have an anxious pet and what triggers their distress; this can range from separation anxiety to seeing a delivery person or encountering other animals.

A typical day

Every pet is different and I will tailor our activities to suit them. Science tells us that even calm or older pets thrive with more attention and engagement throughout the day.
