They Call Me Modern Day Snow White

I have been petsitting since I was 13. Twenty years later, and I have had numerous pets of my own. My family always jokes that I am secretly Snow White. From rescuing birds, saving bugs from inside my house, feeding squirrels, to helping a little frog be saved from a lawnmower... I love all creatures great and small! I love being outdoors and connect more with animals than I do with people. I love to hike, run, swim, bike, and take walks in the woods. I will love and care for your pets as I do with my own pets, giving them attention and love just like you would. I also have experience Farm sitting! I am comfortable with chickens, goats, ducks, etc. If there is an animal I am unfamiliar with, I'd love the opportunity to learn! :)

Safety, trust & environment

As my profile states, I am a Modern Day Snow White. I will follow any instructions you've got and will go the extra miles to keep your animals safe. My commitment to you is to communicate with photos and be available with any questions or concerns at any time. I am a responsible pet owner- our dogs get routine vet care, grooming, and lots of attention. I will notify you if I notice anything off or needing immediate attention, just like I would with my own pets. I have a clear background and driving record, too!

Kat is amazing! She took excellent care of our doggie during a drop in visit. She sent lots of pictures, and a thoughtful and thorough write up of her visit. We could relax knowing she stopped by and we can’t wait to have Kat back again!

I’m so happy that our family found Kat! She is kind, patient, professional, responsible, and takes good care of our senior Frenchie while we are at work. Kat always leaves a detailed note after each visit and includes lots of pictures for us to enjoy! I know that Rosie is in good hands with Kat!

Thanks Kathleen. Looks like Astrid and you had a great time. Astrid even showed you her Zoomie skills. Terrific job! Thanks again for taking care of my girl on a short notice.

Kathleen is so good with our dogs! She is our go-to whenever we want a quick getaway to ourselves. It’s so nice to have someone reliable that we know is going to love on our pups just as much as we do when we are home 🤍🤍

Kathleen was phenomenal with our nervous and anxious rescue dog! Our dog has never had an ‘outsider’ babysit her, so we were nervous around how it would go. Kathleen came to meet our pup before sitting and was so incredibly patient and kind with her. Our pup ended up falling in love with Kathleen and Kathleen loved her just as much right back. We will absolutely hire Kathleen again to take care of our pup! Highly recommend Kathleen!

Kat was over the top awesome!!! We loved the updates and pictures so much. She went above and beyond- I felt safe that my dog had everything he needed. Would definitely recommend.

HOUSE/PET SITTING OVERNIGHT CARE (Tobacco Smokers): I have allergies to tobacco products so I cannot do overnights in homes that are smoked in. It is to both protect my health and wellbeing as well as allow for me to give proper care to your fur babies ( I want everyone happy and healthy :) )! One thing I do not want to do is to accept a job and then have to turn around cut it short due to a reaction or illness from exposure. I do not have a problem with doing drop-ins/walks during the day and night, but I cannot sleep there. I am fine with incense and candles, etc. This is a nonnegotiable for me! Thank you for understanding, Please provide a detailed list of times, medications/supplements, your vet and emergency contact info, and what you expect from your stay. Please list any allergies and what you’d like to have completed on each visit. Please contact me with any concerns or questions!
