Information Kathleen H. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care, I love learning about your dog’s routine, personality, energy level, feeding schedule, leash manners, and any quirks or anxieties. Please share medical needs, medications, allergies, crate habits, and how your dog does with other dogs. The more I know, the more comfortable and happy your pup will be.

A typical day

For drop-in visits, I focus on your dog’s routine—potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, and lots of attention in their familiar space. For boarding in our home, dogs enjoy a relaxed day with outdoor play in our large fenced backyard, supervised social time with our friendly dogs, rest breaks, and plenty of affection. I keep things calm, structured, and fun while making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and at home.

Loving Care From a Local Dog Mom

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover, experienced dog owner, a wife, and a mom to a young toddler. Being both a parent and a pet owner has made me extremely patient, attentive, and dependable when caring for others—both people and pets. I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for over 13 years, grew up in a home where dogs were always part of the family, and we currently own two sweet dogs of our own.

Kathleen went above and beyond! Our first time using Rover and the quality of her service really put us at ease. And she took even better photos of our dog than us! Couldn’t thank her enough! Definitely will be rebooking in the future with Kathleen(:

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.
