Pet care experience

Pet-friendly :)

I have a flexible hybrid schedule, most of the time about 50/50, but varies by day. I have my own little dog (10 lbs) who sometimes accompanies me for housesitting, but can also stay home with my boyfriend if preferred!! She does not like to play, but gets along just fine with other dogs. For boarding, we live with my boyfriend and his 90lb lab mix. She is super sweet and sometimes likes to play, but will let another dog know if she's not into it. There's not an aggressive bone in her body, she's just pretty big so can seem scary. I have no problem with personal space issues and love cuddlers :) I am an active person so if that's what your pup needs we can go on as many walks as needed or have playtime! I have lots of experience with little dogs, big dogs, puppies, and seniors!

Kathleen was awesome! She was able to stay at our house with the pups on short-ish notice and was fantastic. Super communicative and our dogs clearly had a great time with her! Thanks Kathleen!

Schedule

I am environmental health specialist, and I currently work about 50/50 home and in the field, but still have a pretty flexible schedule each day because that!! This works great for different walk times or start/end times for house/petsitting as long as there is some notice and planning on my part :)

Safety, trust & environment

I like to treat pets I work with like I treat my own 🙂 I find it very helpful for myself and dogs/owners to do a meet & greet so that the dog can get comfortable with me and I can be sure to get any information on how best to care for them.

I love experiencing walks in different parks around the area. Also my dog is little and does not do well at dog parks, but I love going and would be happy to take other dogs there!
