Information Kathleen C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if any special needs or preferences ahead of time. I can accommodate most anything but I need to know if your dog is reactive, what are their eating habits. Any activity restrictions etc. I want your pet to be comfortable and feel at home so please let me know what makes them happy and what does not.

A typical day

Daily schedules and activities are tailored to each pet’s specific needs and personality. Everything from hiking to simple lazy days with lots of attention for those playful pups or quiet connections with friends that prefer their independence.

A Cozy Stay While You’re Away

Pet care experience

I have years of experience with a variety of special needs pets. I work from home so there is plenty of time for playtime, exercise and lots of snuggles. Your home or mine. Short stay or long. I’ll give your furry friend the VIPet treatment they deserve!

Kathy went above and beyond to make sure Chuck was comfortable his first weekend away. She has a basket of toys, gave him lots of love and cuddles, and made sure he was walked enough to get all his energy out. Will definitely book again.

Kathie took great care of our pups! They got more exercise and attention than when they are home. Thank you Kathie!

Kathie is excellent at communication and planning the best set of visits to meet my cats' needs. She kept me informed and it made it so easy to be away.

Kathleen took great care of our Ellie. She seemed really happy with all the snuggles and adventures they went on while she was under Kathleen’s care. Definitely recomment if you’re looking for a kind and reliable sitter.
