Pet care experience
I am a graduate of the University of Washington, recently evacuated from Peace Corps service in Guinea. I would love to get a dog of my own but I don't know where I will be next year. I would love to watch your dog while you are gone. About this sitter: I recently graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in Biology. I and have moved back to Eugene after having been evacuated from the Peace Corps in Guinea. I am currently working for a biotech start up downtown with a very flexible schedule. I also occasionally work from home so I have a lot of time to spend with your pets. I would love to get a dog of my own as soon as I get settled when I get back but in the meantime I would love to watch your dog(s) while you are gone. I also love animals of any shape and size and am happy to take care of cats, horses, pocket pets, or anyone else in your household. I have now been sitting with Rover for over three years and have loved all of the great dogs and people that I have met. I grew up volunteering at Greenhill Humane society as well as watching the pets of my friends and family. More recently I have been working at a vet clinic and spent several summers on a ranch taking care of a variety of animals of all sizes including horses, goats and cattle. I also had a dog of my own while in Guinea, unfortunately due to the circumstances of my leaving I wasn't able to bring her home with me. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life. I have dog and house sat for many family friends and neighbors. I also spent several years volunteering at Greenhill Humane Society in Eugene, Oregon. In college I worked with a vet clinic in Seattle and was in charge of the dogs who there for boarding. I had my own dog during Peace Corps service in Guinea but unfortunately I had to leave her there when we were evacuated. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication. I have experience working at a vet clinic and have a lot of experience giving all sorts of medications.

Kathleen was amazing! Not only did she take great care of our dogs, but she rescued a bird that our cat brought in! You can tell she loves animals- she's an awesome caregiver! I would highly recommend Kathleen, and we plan to book her again!
Kathleen does a great job with our dog. She’s been really helpful for our family.
Kathleen does a great job. She was flexible with our schedule. Stopped over prior to her first visit to introduce herself and meet our dog. I’m looking forward to booking visits in the future.
