Pet care experience

Hello! Would love to meet you and your furry one :). I will make sure your furry friend is taken care of with anything needed while you are away. I grew up with a Chihuahua for 12 years before he passed away. I am currently a dentist with a flexible schedule and my husband helps out since he works from home! The reason I have decided to pet sit is to be able to spend time with pets since I do not currently have any of my own. I love taking care of other dogs and look forward to one day owning my own very soon. I literally look at dog pictures everyday -they keep my spirits up. And you will get some of the best ones in my opinion. As you can imagine, I will be attentive to every detail provided. Help me share my love to your pet! Reach out if you have any questions!

Big thanks for taking such good care of our furry baby (again). Knowing she’s with people that treat her like family lets me relax and enjoy my adventure. Thanks again!!!

Katherine and her husband provided basic care to my dogs. They gave all meds/vitamins that we require. Katherine did send pictures daily. I was very unhappy about the everything of their booking. I do have a lot of large dogs, but that is not an excuse for how unprepared and unprofessional they were. They could not figure out which dog was which, could not identify their collars, could not understand our directions that we left them to the point of them putting on LED light up necklaces during the day…I have used them once before and everything seemed okay but this time was the opposite. They took it upon themselves to the unplug our security cameras and claim that we were using them to monitor them, which was incorrect and extremely unprofessional. I even tried to call them to resolve the issue and neither Katherine nor her husband answered my calls. The house was a disaster when I got back, floors were filthy, counters were filthy, couch was also covered in dirt, and the dogs were filthy so I am unconvinced they watched them play outside. The dogs beds were all messed up and clearly the sitters didn’t even bother to go into the room to check on it at all. Overall, I was very unhappy with how this went and had to deal with all of this while on vacation.

We were so pleased with the wonderful care that Katherine and Winston gave to our little fuzzy pup! They stayed at our house, which cut down on Misty’s anxiety. The house was neat and clean when we returned. Lots of pics along the way, so I knew she was getting walks and having fun. I hope Katherine and Winston will consider watching Misty again in the future!!

I currently do not have a yard as I live in an apartment building. However, I can let the pets out for walks as needed and according to their energy level. If your dog needs to be crated, I can easily make sure to do that as long as the crate is provided. If the service you request is a House sitting service, I may not feel comfortable sleeping over through the nights depending on the conditions. Please ask if there is a special circumstance I can accommodate for! I can definitely make sure I stop by to feed/walk/let dogs/pets out throughout the day.

Information Katherine Y. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know anything that will help your pet be more comfortable. This includes any habits you have with your dog and if there is anything that you know of that will aggravate them.

A typical day

Normally, I will go on walks in the neighborhood and go to a dog park if there is one close by. I can use your dog’s toys to allow fun time and have your dog expend energy!

I work 6 minutes from home and am able to come home throughout the day as needed. My husband is gracious enough to watch and care for pets while I am at work throughout the day. So there will always be someone at home. If we have a busy week or weekend planned, we may not be able to fit pet care in. That way, we don’t feel bad for not giving the much needed attention your pet may need.
