Safety, trust & environment

I enjoy working with animals to give them the enrichment they want to have so they can be the happiest they can possibly be in whatever environment they're in. Visits will always include lots of affection and playtime, with a little training slipped into their games.

Information Katherine W. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know how your dog behaves in general before I take care of them, such as if they are sensitive to other dogs, leash reactive, don't like people on bicycles, or that sort of thing. I also want to know the good things about them, like their favorite toy, if they like to lie in the sun, if they sing you the song of their people, etc.

A typical day

This area has so many excellent parks and places, and I love to take dogs exploring with me. Walking through Old Milford is always a favorite place for my babies and the park closest to my house. One of my dogs lives for fetch, and the park has a nice open space to throw the ball. I like to take my picnic blanket into the backyard and hang out with my dogs in my garden.

Pet care experience

My furbabies are extremely important to me, so I understand how important they must be to you! We currently have 2 dogs, 4 cats, and a rabbit. I have had dogs for 25 years and cats for my entire life. I have fostered over 50 cats in the last ten years, and I have fostered, boarded, and cared for many dogs besides my own. I also have experience with a slew of other animals, including ferrets, guinea pigs, snakes, lizards, fish, and horses.

Katie was very responsive and paid attention to details. TJ loved his drop-in visit with Katie! When she left, he was exhausted.
