Safety, trust & environment

I care for any pet like they're part of the family, whether they're mine or yours. I'll respect your decision on how you like to treat your pets.... on the furniture, off the furniture, time of day you feed your pets and only what you want me to feed them, crate or no crate, where and when to walk your pets and for how long you want them walked. If I'm missing anything just let me know.

Information Kathleen B. would like to know about your pet

Please, let me know if you have pets with special needs. Examples like.... are they afraid of loud sounds, are they afraid of other pets or animals in general, medical issues that I need to help them with, their likes and dislikes, such as where they like or don't like to be touched and anything else that you need to let me know.

A typical day

I believe that pets need love, affection and play time. If you have a pool and your pets like to swim... I would join them in the pool to keep them safe. 5 out of 8 of my dogs swim so I know what to expect. I'll play tug of war or any other games that they like. Just let me know what their favorite things are.

My animals are my world!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs and cats since I was 5 yrs old. They are my world. I couldn't imagine life without pets. 5 of my dogs are laying in bed with me as I type this. I've have rescues but I've also had 3 Golden Doodle litters.

Kathleen (Kara) to us, was absolutely fabulous. Rosie adored her and is now.looming for her. She sent photos daily. Checked in often with updates. Left my home cleaner than I left it to her. She is reliable, respectful and more important great with my Rosie! Definitely would recommend her.k
