Reliable & Insured Pet Care

Trusted & Compassionate Pet Care As a devoted dog mom and loving parent to three humans, I’ve shared my life with dogs for as long as I can remember! Working from home with a flexible schedule gives me the freedom to provide extra attention and affection to pups in need. Having been a Rover user myself, I understand how important it is to find a sitter you can trust—so I’m excited to offer a warm, loving environment for your furry companion. Why Choose Me? 🐾 Experienced with Special Needs Dogs – My own pup struggles with separation anxiety and loud noises, so I know how crucial patience and understanding are. I also recently lost my beloved Clyde, who had dietary restrictions and trouble navigating stairs—experiences that have deepened my compassion for dogs with unique needs. 🐾 Volunteer Experience – My time at FurKids in Alpharetta has given me hands-on experience walking dogs, socializing with them, and even handling essential tasks like washing toys and answering calls. It was a truly rewarding role that reinforced my passion for pet care. 🐾 Flexible Schedule – Because I work from home, I can provide consistent attention and care throughout the day, ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Let’s Meet! I’d love to welcome your pup into my care, offering the love, attention, and reliability they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 🐶

Kathleen was fantastic with Arnold. We were away for 2 weeks and she kept us updated everyday with pictures and insights on how he was doing. I would recommend her in a second.

Moose had a great stay with Kathleen! She has a very nice, clean home & a fun backyard with sweet pup neighbors that moose loved playing with. Moose has some tricky allergies that Kathleen was very attentive to and took seriously as well. She was communicative throughout his stay with daily updates and photos. We appreciated all the pictures! Moose was well taken care of and we’ll definitely bring him back. We’d recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

We left our 5 years old lab Cooper with Kathleen folder more than 2 weeks as we traveled outside the country. I can see through all the pictures and videos how well he was taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a loving and caring home for your pet !

Kathleen did a fabulous job walking my 4 year old golden Jake while I was away and he stayed with my dad. Jake greeted her with a hug and kiss and was so excited to see her. She was responsive and communicated well! She also helped me out last minute when another sitter cancelled. Thank you so much and I would highly recommend.
