Highlights
Pet care experience
Type A pet parent = best pet sitter
Senior cat mom skilled at managing: hijinks, special diets & administering medication (oral/topical)*! I treat all fur babies with the same love & meticulous attention I give my own 🐱🐶 It can be nervewracking being away from your pet, but not to worry — I give LOTS of updates & always confirm before doing anything outside of your care instructions. $20 off 1st booking: KATHYV57281 (even if not with me! 🤗) *I am not trained in administering injectable medication. Therefore, I only offer oral and topical med admin; I will never risk your pet’s safety just to make a bit of extra money. Thank you for understanding! 💛

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.
Ratings and reviews
Katherine did an incredible job taking care of our senior dog! As her first time sitting our dog, I was so impressed by how super communicative she was throughout the entire appointment, sending helpful updates that put my mind right at ease. She was extremely attentive to detail and took extra care to make sure our older pup was safe, relaxed, and comfortable. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals in her care.
Katherine was an amazing dog and house sitter! She went above and beyond to take care of our dog, Penny. We loved her updates and all of the sweet photos and videos that were sent. It was such a relief knowing that Penny was in good hands. I would book Katherine again and again!
Katherine is a breath of fresh air! This is my first time using the app and it won’t be my last. Pipa loved Katherine and I finally feel like I can have peace of mind leaving her. It was a great experience, so booking Katherine again tomorrow. Thank you
Katherine is always fantastic, informative, and considerate. One of our favorites for sure!
Katherine went truly above and beyond caring for both my home and my girls. I received thoughtful updates throughout the stay, and it was obvious how much love, attention, and care she gave them. I came home to a peaceful, beautifully cared for space and felt so supported during a stressful time in my life. She is genuinely one of a kind, and I cannot recommend her enough. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again.
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.
