Safety, trust & environment
I’m all about keeping your pets safe and happy. At home, I double-check doors, windows, & all other potential escape routes to prevent escape acts and keep curious pets out of tricky spots. On walks, I use secure gear, avoid hazards like hot pavement or busy areas, and always watch for stress or discomfort. After I take your pet back home, I always do a perimeter scan for toxic flowers, food, and choking hazards to ensure your pet will remain safe even after I leave. If any issues arise, you will be the first to know — I will leave a detailed text, call, and voicemail along with immediately reporting them to Rover.
Information Katherine V. would like to know about your pet
If your pet has a illness that can be transferred by pet-to-human contact, please let know ahead of time so I can take proper safety precautions for my own cats!
A typical day
My first priority when I see your pets is ensuring their spaces are clean and safe and their water sources are cleaned and refilled! Afterward, I’ll follow your preferred schedule for play sessions, walks, and food, updating you as soon as your pet is settled in and eating. If I’m house sitting, I’ll be up by 7 am and I only leave to run errands or grab dinner! I can try teaching your pet tricks if requested (I taught my orange cat Sit, Spin & Paw!) At night we’ll settle in with a movie or tv show (always pet safe snacks) before lights out :)

Reviews
Katherine never ceases to amaze me with her thoughtfulness over my dog. He was recently in recovery mode from a surgery and I had a last minute work trip across the country. Katherine truly gave Cash the VIP treatment and put my mind at ease. 10/10 woulda recommend. Will be returning.
Katherine is the best dog sitter, and trust me, it is better than you could have dreamt up. The communication is through, the rules are followed to a T, my apartment was better than I left it (sorry) and my dog was ecstatic to be with her. I will be booking Katherine as much as she can handle due to my work travel. Very appreciative dog dad!
Great with the doggo! Sent information as well some pics of the boy! Super helpful and quick to respond! Thanks again, Katherine!
kathy has cat / house sat for me previously and she did a fantastic job. she followed all the care and feeding directions, provided tons of updates throughout the day, and left my house spotless! since kathy has cats of her own, she takes extra care when it comes to looking after others' pets. i came home to a well taken care of kitty (:
