Pet care experience

I’ve been an animal lover all my life and have often been called on to pet sit for friends and family. When I was younger, I wanted to be a veterinarian. At 17 I did an internship at my local animals hospital. As a result, I’m confident working with most animals and know what to look out for in terms of health issues and can give medications. Although I eventually left the pre-vet track, my love for animals has never wavered.

Kathleen was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home while we were on vacation to care for our dog Ella. She kept in great communication, sending thoughtful updates and photos (which we loved and appreciated so much)! We came home to our house exactly as we left it and a very happy pup. We will definitely be booking with Kathleen again!!

Kathleen did a great job watching our dog! She was on time (even offered to stay a little bit longer than scheduled), attentive, and professional. Our dog was immediately at ease with her.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
