Pet care experience

Experienced with behavioral issues.

As a pre-vet Animal Science major, I have a strong love for animals, especially when it comes to dogs and cats. I have worked at doggy daycares, shelters, and rescues as well as having two dogs of my own. I can provide runs, hiking, basic training, and other fun activities for your dogs. My availability revolves around my work schedule, but I am free all day most Fridays through Sundays. I know how to monitor the health of your pet and can also provide basic medical needs such as insulin shots, wound care, giving oral medications, eye drops, etc. I have over two years of experience working with animals that struggle with behavioral issues or anxieties. I am very patient and will work with your pet to provide the best care for their needs!

If you’re looking for the funniest and most compassionate dog walker look no further! Though I don’t like to share, so maybe keep looking. So lucky to have found Kathrine!

Even through the winter storm she showed up to walk my Kona and spend some time with her. Definitely recommend her service and will use again on the future.

Katherine made a huge difference for us this weekend. Tootsie really likes her. Katherine went above and beyond for us despite bad weather and extreme snow.

Please let me know if your pet has any special requirements when arriving or leaving. I would love to make sure your pet is comfortable with their introduction with me, and I want to be sure they feel secure when I leave. Any behavioral issues such as separation anxiety, dog reactivity, or extreme fear towards new people is helpful to know. It won’t scare me away, but I want to be sure to make the pet’s comfortability and safety my top priority!
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.
