Safety, trust & environment

When staying in your home, I take both your space and your pets’ well-being very seriously. I follow instructions carefully and prioritize safety at every step, while also being a considerate and respectful guest. My goal is to ensure your home is treated with care and your pets are secure and comfortable throughout my visit.

Information Kathleen C. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has special needs or behavioral issues, just let me know! I'm happy to work with them, but I do need to know to provide the best possible interaction. If you have specific training protocols, I would love to know those as well! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member.

A typical day

The best walks are hikes, but barring that, I’d love to find a large park in your area or take a loop through Caltech in my area, and have a blast! I’ll send you update photos, and if it’s cats you have I'll make sure they get play time during drop-in visits.

Bark Ranger!

Pet care experience

From 2007 to 2024, I worked as a Park Ranger in Yosemite National Park and several other beautiful parks. Now I’m back in town for schooling in the medical field! Growing up, I was always surrounded by animals—dogs, cats, even aquariums—so caring for pets feels second nature to me. My time in the park taught me to be attentive, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I bring that same energy to pet care. I also love taking photos, so you can look forward to plenty of fun snapshots of your pets while they’re in my care. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or cozy cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry (or finned!) family members feel happy, safe, and loved.

Kathleen gave detailed updates, sent cute photos, and made sure to adhere to my pup’s routine! I was able to enjoy my graduation knowing he was well taken care of 😊

Kathleen was great watching our two pugs. She was very responsive and sent frequent updates! I would definitely request her as a house sitter again!

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.
