Pet care experience
**pricing fluctuates and is negotiable—just shoot me a message as I can customize services to fit your needs** I have been working with dogs since I was 7 years old. I started volunteering at pet stores a couple times a week, and when I got older I made my first flyer for dog walking in my neighborhood. Now, ironically, 2 college degrees later…I am making another “flyer” for pet services (talk about full circle)! I worked professionally in animal care for 4 years. I have been employed at a vet clinic, a boarding facility, and a doggie daycare/training establishment. I am very passionate about rescue and still help with that by fostering and networking [must show proof of vaccinations as I will likely have a young puppy here somewhat regularly] .. Between all three of these jobs I have gotten the opportunity to work with a very wide variety of dog breeds—and I have experience with all ages, personalities, energy levels, and temperaments. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is very flexible. I am a novice trainer and I’m a certified Reiki practitioner as well. Reiki can be added as a service when I am with your pet. It is fantastic for promoting calmness and reducing anxiety (which we know some pets do suffer from when away from their family). I do not mind to work on basic training with your dog while I am with he or she either if you would like. I also have specific experience in idiopathic epilepsy, senior care and puppy care. I always take lots of photos to include in the Rover “report” cards that are filled out by me at the end of my time with your pet(s) each day—this gives owners reassurance and insight as to how their baby is doing.
Reviews
Katherine was great! She took amazing care of my dog while I was away. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for dog care.
Katherine made this trip so much better because I knew my dogs were in good hands. She communicated well, was punctual, sent me great photos, and was a dream to work with. I can't thank you enough.

I will care for your pet in your home based on the instructions that you give to me. In my home I still expect to receive an idea of what your dog’s daily routine looks like and I will duplicate that to the best of my ability as well.
Home
Information Katherine T. would like to know about your pet
If your dog requires special care of some sort please relay that information to me. It is important for me to know that they are up to date on vaccines, good with other dogs, are not escape artists, if they are house or crate trained, how many meals they have per day and how much, if they have any allergies, if they have any triggers, etc.
A typical day
I have a large backyard that is fenced. We are constantly outside playing ball or in the sprinkler, when it is warm outside. I enjoy taking the dogs on walks around the neighborhood and we also have an amazing new dog park about a mile from my house as well.

I have 4 dogs of my own so I have pet care integrated into my daily life already. Adding a couple extra dogs is not an inconvenience or hurdle for me.
