Availability
I live in a pet-friendly building with plenty of space for play and relaxation. If a pet requires crating, I have room to accommodate that, but I also ensure they have time to roam, play, and feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely-whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or just offering companionship. My goal is to create a comfortable and stress-free environment, whether in my home or theirs, so pets feel safe and well cared for.

Information Katherine Z. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a pet, I always like to learn about their personality, routines, and any specific needs they may have. Helpful things to know include feeding schedules, favorite activities, exercise needs, behavioral quirks, and whether they’re comfortable around other animals or new people. If your pet has any medical needs, medications, or special instructions, I’m happy to follow those closely. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day depends on each pet’s routine and energy level, but I always aim to keep their day structured, comfortable, and engaging. For dogs, that may include morning walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For cats, it might mean feeding, litter care, play sessions, and quiet companionship. I also make sure to send updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Kat, a lifelong animal lover with over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and 5 years with cats. Having lived with and cared for both, I understand their unique personalities and needs - whether that’s long walks, playtime, feedings, or simply keeping them company (& giving them endless love and belly scratches ofc!). I’m based in Williamsburg and often in Manhattan (FiDi, Downtown, and Uptown), so I’m happy to care for pets in all of those areas. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I also make sure to send plenty of updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I’d love to meet you and your pet, feel free to reach out anytime!

Reviews
Katherine was great! It was a last-minute request but Roma seems to have had a great time, and pickup/dropoff went smoothly. Katherine was responsive and sent photos throughout the stay!
Katherine is amazing! I needed a walker last minute and she came to the rescue. My dog Toby had an absolute blast with her. Along with pictures, Katherine also wrote a cute little summary detailing everything that occurred during Toby's walk.
Literally couldn’t ask for a better sitter! 10/10
I’ve had my share of sitters over the years, but Katherine is undoubtedly the best dog sitter I have ever had. From the moment we’ve been in contact she’s been nothing short of responsive, caring, and reliable. She took the time to ask extensive questions about Saint’s care and completely put me at ease with any worries I may have had. Saint stayed with Katherine for over two weeks and there was never a moment when I was even slightly worried because I knew he was in the best hands! She sent photos, constantly keep me updated, and took him on the most fun adventures! For other dachshund owners, as cute as our dogs are we know they aren’t always for everyone, but Katherine is such a pro and clearly a huge dog lover! I could tell my pup was having the best time. I can’t wait to have Katherine watch Saint again in the future, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is thinking of booking her! You won’t regret it!
