Home full time - dogs are life

Pet care experience

I am annoyingly affectionate with dogs. I grew up with them, I have a dog now and my friends always call me first to watch their animals (which I love.) In my experience, the one thing that is essential when working with any dog is patience. Patience is something that I have no shortage of. I’m a huge advocate for exercise and fitness for pets so you can be sure that they will be going on long walks and playing outside. And lots of cuddles! If they want them :) I understand that each pet has their own personality and style so I adapt to exactly what your pet needs. If they want cuddles they get cuddles. If they want space they get space. My aim is to make them happy and provide a 5 star service.

Katherine did a great job with Teddy, sending plenty of updates for me to know that Teddy is doing great! She gave him plenty of attention and walks, but respected that he’s an older dog. Her pup got along well with teddy it seems as well!

Katherine was amazing! She took such good care of my lab mix Zoey and updated me with pictures throughout my trip! I could tell zoey had a great time staying with Cody (Katherine’s dog) and had plenty of play time/exercise. I will definitely be using her next time I go away!

Katherine was the best dog sitter ever! She sent great photos of Brisket having fun, communication with her on drop off and pick up was super easy, and she was such a warm and friendly person. It looked like brisket had a ton of fun with her lab as well. Thank you for taking good care of Brisket!
