Pet care experience

Dog’s are family 🐾

As a devoted pet lover, I believe that pets are family and my number one priority is to keep them safe, loved and well cared for. Having cared for a diverse range of breeds, and dogs with special needs you came to the right place. I’m available all day/night. I only take 1 family’s dog/dogs at a time. I continue this work in memory of my sweet Scottie who crossed the rainbow bridge 🌈 on May 24th 2025 his memory inspires me to provide the best care possible to every pet I look after. Boarding: Your dog becomes part of the family while staying in my safe, smoke free, pet friendly home which includes: Feeding on your pet’s schedule, (please provide me special bowls if needed) and detailed instructions. **To make your pet’s experience as easy and stress-free as possible, I offer pick-up and drop-off services for a small fee. House sitting: Is provided in your home (smoke free only please) due to allergies 🤧 Caring for your pets with feeding, walks, playtime and companionship. Making your home appear lived in to deter intruders. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away. **If your pet doesn’t require overnight care or you simply don’t want/need anyone overnight (totally understandable) the service would include 2 visits @45 minutes each including feeding and fresh water, short walks, playtime and companionship. A quick home check (mail, lights on) ***Puppies are accepted under certain circumstances, we can discuss them if the need arises.

Kathleen was a great help taking care of our two dogs while we were out of town overnight! She was very communicative with updates and photos and was comfortable with giving oral meds. We would highly recommend her and hope to book her again soon. Thanks again Kathleen!

Kathy was phenomenal! She bonded so well with my dog. I got adorable pictures every day and she took him to the park several times. I will most definitely use her again. A+ in my book!

To give your dog/dog's the best care possible, I need to know about their personality, habits, and quirks. Nothing is too small or too silly! The more I know, the better I can tailor care.
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.
