Highlights
Pet care experience
Compassionate Pet Caretaker ♡
Hi, nice to meet you! ♡ I have been walking dogs from puppies to seniors since childhood. Maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and keeping up with medications are additional priorities I have. I also have experience with house sitting and occasionally boarding! ☺️ I’m patient and communicative- and only want the best for you and your fur baby. 🤎 ➜ References: I am more than happy to provide a reference if requested! (They're more old-school and don't use their email anymore- I can provide their number directly.)
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I thrive off of detailed instructions and routines. If you have a regular schedule with your pet(s), I will stick to it 100%! I am more than happy to send pictures throughout the day / per visit to ensure your comfort as well. ➜ Drop-In Visits: If there is anything in particular you'd like me to keep an eye out for (medications, behaviors, welfare), please let me know! These visits are for YOU and I want to meet you and your pets' needs! 🤎
Ratings and reviews
For Keith and Bette Mehlbrech, Katherine (Kate) has taken Bailey for a day or for overnight when we were out of town. Bailey always had a good time with her, enjoyed her visits, never had problems with not eating- always ate well! Bailey was always well-cared for and very comfortable with Kate. When we first got Bailey, she was a rescue dog. We were her 3rd home in only 21 months of life. Basically, Bailey was "afraid of her own shadow." But with Kate and her family's love and friendship towards Bailey, their home became a second home.
