Information Kathleen G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any routines, medical needs, allergies, or behaviors that help me care for your pet in the best way possible. This includes things like anxiety triggers, leash habits, crate routines, feeding schedules, or anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable and secure. The more I know upfront, the more I can make their stay feel like home.

A typical day

I love to keep dogs active and engaged with regular walks around the neighborhood and nearby park, and I’m happy to adjust activity based on each dog’s energy and personality. For more active dogs, I can play fetch in the backyard or take them on runs with me if they enjoy that. If appropriate and approved by you, I can also arrange safe playtime with trusted, well-behaved dogs that I know. I’m always happy to follow any specific routines or favorite spots/parks that your dog prefers to go to.

Dependable St. Pete Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a huge dog lover who understands how hard it can feel to leave your pet with someone new. While I’m new to Rover, I have a ton of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ dogs for both short and extended stays. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible work from home job, which allows me to be available throughout the day for plenty of attention, supervision, and care. I also have a large fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play and get their energy out. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I’m happy to adapt to their routines, whether that’s walks, playtime, structure, or cuddles. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send lots of photo updates while caring for your dog. Please feel free to reach out with any questions; I look forward to meeting you!

Kathleen was incredibly caring during my dog’s stay. She was highly responsive, provided consistent photo updates, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She was both professional and friendly, and my dog definitely has a new best friend after all of the walks she got. I travel quite a bit and Kathleen will now be my go to sitter. Highly recommended!!

Kathleen was amazing with my dog Lucy! She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind. Lucy absolutely loved her and was clearly happy and comfortable in her care. Kathleen went above and beyond to make sure Lucy got plenty of attention, walks, and affection. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and loving dog sitter on Rover.

I highly recommend Kathleen for pet sitting on Rover! She has watched my dog multiple times and always does an amazing job. She genuinely loves animals and they love her back! My dog is always excited to see her and comes home happy, relaxed and well cared for. Kathleen is trustworthy, reliable, attentive and communicates well throughout the stay.
