Experienced & Dependable Caregiver

Pet care experience

I've been around animals my whole life. Since childhood, I've had a range of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish. I learned about caring for animals from an early age. I love animals and currently have the sweetest 2-year-old Yellow Lab/German Shepherd mix. I'm available to care for your pets, whether you need a simple drop-in visit, a dog walk, or pet sitting overnight. I spent a summer doing dog walking in California and it was definitely one of my favorite jobs I've ever had. I am comfortable with small dogs, large dogs, puppies, older dogs, cats, and pretty much any other pets... I've worked with both rescue horses and dogs; I am skilled at connecting with shy animals who might take a little extra time to get used to people. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! My schedule is fairly flexible throughout the week and weekends. Furthermore, I have a significant amount of time throughout my day to provide pet care. I make sure to provide individualized, quality care for your pets, understanding their unique needs. Their safety and happiness are my top priorities and I will care for them just as I would look after my own pets.

Kathleen did a great job checking on the kitties! I just moved to Florida last year and I was very hesitant on choosing a new pet sitter. The kitties were very well taken care of and all three were very happy when I arrived back home. I would definitely recommend Kathleen for pet services!

Kathleen was great watched out two big dogs and was fantastic. She sent regular updates and was very easy to work with. Will definitely use her dog sitting again!

Kathleen did a great job with our pets! They seemed very happy when we got home and the house looked great! She sent lots of great pictures throughout the weekend too.

Kathleen is very sweet and attentive. Our 10 month old pup got along very well with her sweet dog, Cashmere. They played very well together. I will definitely book Kathleen again, without reservation

Information Kathleen A. would like to know about your pet

I like to know any sort of special care a dog needs, if they need medication administration, if there are mobility concerns, allergies, and so on. Some dogs are extremely shy and take extra time to warm up—it’s helpful to know how to make these dogs as happy and comfortable as possible while their parents are away.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk, followed by breakfast. Then, the pets will take a nap, play, or prepare for an outing, such as trip to the park. Each day varies depending on the energy levels of each dog and particular care each pet requires.
