Availability
I work in healthcare Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM, so I’m unable to stop in for visits during those hours. However, I’m happy to complete your pet’s morning routine before I head to work and arrange visits outside of work hours on weekdays. I have full availability on weekends as well. I take great pride in being clean and tidy, so your home will always be left just as I found it, if not better!

This Kat loves dogs!
Pet care experience
With 10 years of house and dog sitting experience, I’m dedicated to giving dog families peace of mind while they’re away. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs with complex needs, and every size in between, from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. My background in healthcare has taught me just how important routine is. You can count on me for timely medication administration, consistent walks, regular potty breaks, and treats on schedule. My favorite part of every stay is soaking up all the pets and snuggles my furry guests have to offer. House care gets the same attention to detail: I’ll monitor your plants, water them according to your schedule and current weather conditions, and make sure trash and recycling go out on time. I hope to have the opportunity to help you and your fur babies out!

Reviews
I’ve had the pleasure of having Kat care for my pets, and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive, and it was clear from the start how much she genuinely loves animals. She took great care of my pets, followed all of their routines, and made sure they felt comfortable and loved while I was away. What I appreciated most was the peace of mind she gave me. She kept me updated, was always responsive, and treated my pets as if they were her own. I came home to happy, well cared for pets, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with them again. Anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter would be lucky to have her!
I cannot recommend Katherine enough! She watched my 105 lb pitty and was absolutely amazing with him. He needed allergy medication every day, and she was so responsible, attentive, and caring about making sure he was comfortable and taken care of. What meant the most to me was how comfortable she was with him from the start. She wasn’t intimidated by his size or breed at all, she treated him like the big baby he is. He absolutely loved her, all of her scratches, attention, and affection, and it was so clear that he trusted her and felt safe with her. She was also incredibly communicative the entire time, sent updates, and made me feel completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. It’s not easy leaving your pet with someone, especially one with specific needs, but she went above and beyond. I would trust her with him again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their pets!
