Animals are my world

Your child will get lots of love and attention. I have tons of experience since I have been around animals all my life. Animals are drawn to me for some reason and will always be around them. My personal four legged kids are spoiled so expect the same for yours. I am retired and can work with your schedule to ensure your pets are taken care. I have dog training experience so can handle a multitude of situations. I can take care of special needs such as medications. Working with puppies to the seniors is not a problem. I am flexible and easy going but firm with dogs when the situation. I can follow your instructions because I know this is important for you kids well being.

Ruby stayed 8 days with Kathi and I can tell she was well cared for and had a great time. Would definitely recommend her to watch your pup.

Kathi helped us out in a pinch- she was super responsive and let me set up a meet and greet same day I messaged her. Our puppy has never been away from us for more than 2 nights and she stayed with Kathi for 7 nights. I was nervous but Kathi was knowledgeable and great at communicating. I felt confident that Leia was well taken care of!

Kathi is so great with my girl Asha. She treated her like her own dog and was a wonderfully easy person to work with.

Kathi took great care of my very energetic pup! It was a late request due to my usual sitter falling through last minute and Kathi was very understanding about that. She sent pics of my dog during my trip and even provided some harness recommendations!

A typical day

I live in a beautiful neighborhood so walking is quiet and pleasant. I have a large privacy fenced back yard so there is plenty of running space. There is a small pool for those hot days to dip their paws in. If your dog is a couch potato then I have the ideal home for them.

Knowing an animal is important in order to keep them safe. I would like to know about your dogs schedule to ensure they have stress free days. Please inform me of any habits good or bad so I can take care of them properly.
