Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving fun place away from home!
I have had dogs all my life, from puppies to seniors with special needs. Right now I have a senior bichon-poodle mix. I rescued her as a puppy in 2014. I have created a custom "doggie yard" to ensure all everyone can run and play in a secure and safe place every time we go outside. I have also had recent experience caring for a blind senior Yorkie. I learned how to prepare the inside of my home to accommodate his disability.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I can’t say enough good things about the way Kathleen took care of my dog Bear. The environment she provides is clean and safe inside and out. She loves and understands dogs and provides for their individual needs. Bear was happy for the whole five days he was there.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our Gracie receives from Kathleen. She is dependable, caring, & truly treats our dog like her own. We always have peace of mind when she can care for Gracie. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy & loving dog sitter!

Kathleen is a very professional and involved Petsitter. I feel very confident LB is in good hands when she visits Kathleen.

Kathleen has taken care of my sweet Ellie several times. Ellie enjoys getting such great attention and love. She also enjoys playing with the other dogs. Thank you so much!!

We appreciate the care Kathleen provides for our small pom. Kathleen is her second home!

This was LBs first stay with Kathleen and i am so impressed with her kindness and professionalism. I would recommend her to anyone.

Schedule
I work from home on a flexible schedule. We take doggie breaks every 2 hours, or sooner if needed. This is a time to go outside, run and play with toys, feeding, or just sit with them and snuggle.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My doggy area outside has a "custom" super soft grassy area that is double fenced to keep pets secure, safe and always in sight when outside. Plenty of cozy pet beds are in each room, and pets are allowed on my sofa. My home has an Open design, so I am able to see what is happening at any given moment
Pets
A typical day
A typical day includes playing "fetch" with a variety of toys, both indoors and outside. Outside, we also have fun with chase games around the yard until we are all tired out. The more senior dogs love to lay in the soft grass and enjoy a sunbath! Then back inside for them to nap, lounge, snuggle, or get tummy rubs. This is the best time of the day for me to have individual time with each fur baby.

- If your dog has any specific needs or special requirements, kindly inform me in advance so that I can make the necessary preparations to accommodate them properly. Your pet must be up to date on vaccinations and tick/flea free when you drop them off. We will schedule a meet and greet prior to booking your scheduled stay. This is an opportunity for you to see where your pet will be staying, and for all of us to get acquainted.
