Pet care experience

Your Paw-fect Place!

I have 14 years of experience with dogs. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own, and do my best to make sure he/she feels at home. I have two small dogs of my own so they can all play together and have a fun vacation while you are away. Most days I work from home so I can be with your fur babies as long as they need! We can play in the yard, go on potty breaks, and go on walks as needed. I'm unable to provide off-leash exercise, so if your dog needs this s/he may be better suited elsewhere. Your paw buddy will have an awesome time hanging out with me and my dogs! They'll get all the attention they need (and then some!).

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two friendly small dogs to keep yours company! We can play with balls and toys, or tug-o'-war! Everyone is fed separately. Please bring a bed for your pup/s and ensure they are wearing a collar with contact information. Please also ensure your pup is treated with flea medication before arriving, thank you!

We were so lucky to have Katherine stay with our young puppy over the holiday weekend - she took wonderful care of him, sent us great updates, and we came home to a very happy dog! We would absolutely book Katherine again.

Katherine is an excellent pet sitter and an even better communicator! She was great with our special needs dog, our tortoise, and helped out with the house. I would highly recommend her to anyone! Ben

Wow. Katherine was great. She followed instructions to a tee and kept Hastings company in my apartment while I was away including take care of all walks and feeding. Also, Katherine had to take over for another person on Rover midway through my trip and she was great about accommodating the hand off. I would gladly use Katherine again.

Schedule

I work primarily from home, and I love playing with other dogs and caring for your pup's needs. We go on walks 2-3x day and play in the yard often. :)

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Katherine can host up to 8 drop-ins per day
Please let me know how often they go potty, their food schedule, any medication or special care needs. Do they play nice with other dogs? Do they act differently on a leash? Do they pull on the leash? Are they house trained? All of it is fine, it's just helpful to know ahead of time!
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.
