Highlights
Pet care experience
Longtime pet lover, kind & reliable
Retired RN with 40+ years of experience caring for my own, family and friends’ pets, from puppy/kitty stages to senior years. Offering care to any aged pet with fun playtime thrown in too! Enjoying a walk with your dog at the pace that best suits them will be a priority. I also have a small dog who can accompany us on walks if your dog needs/enjoys social interaction. My main goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, well cared for and loved, treating them with the same dependability, warmth & attention as I would my own. Another aim is to keep pet owners informed and follow any specific needs/directions requested, including any medication administration to ensure a great visit. I will also take care of your home with the same respect as your pets - cleaning up after your pets & wiping dogs’ paws after a rainy, snowy, muddy walk! You and your pet can count on me to be reliable, consistent, friendly and on time.

Safety, trust & environment
Your trust and your pet’s safety are very important to me. While caring for your pets in your home I will respect your space, follow your instructions & always make sure that doors, crates and gates are closed. On walks I’ll make sure to keep an eye on your dog’s body language, needs and have water & treats available to ensure that it is fun, safe and filled with some good sniffing time too!
Ratings and reviews
Kathi was amazing!! After I was in need with only a day notice, she stepped up and I couldn’t be happier. She took great care of Lexi and my home. I highly recommend Kathi to anyone. Thank you!!
Kathi was absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend Kathi and hope she will take care of my dogs and cat for all future trips. Kathi kept me updated and provided pictures. I felt the animals were well taken care of and happy.
Kathi has watched my cats 5-6 times and she did an excellent job. She always showed up at the designated times and took excellent care of them. She goes above and beyond and is more than just someone stopping by to feed your pet, she truly cares about making sure they feel at home.
Our dog loves Kathi! She walked him recently with her sweet dog Finley and he had a great time. He is always excited to see Kathi and Finley and he loves Kathi’s home-made treats. She is great with dogs and we trust her to care for our dog any time.
Kathryn (Kathi) is a premiere dog walker. We used Kathi to walk our two black labs while out-of-town. Kathi was the perfect match for these two friendly, energetic labs. She matched their energy step for step! She was calm, conscientious and loving to the pups. Kathi was timely in her response to us regarding availability. Rover is the perfect match for Kathi as she loves dogs and loves to walk. I hope other owners are as pleased as we were!
Kathryn is the most loving and caring person. That holds true to how she is with pets. She has walked and played with my dog many times! He adores her and looks forward to seeing her. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner. She is the best!
