Availability

I work from home so I am flexible with drop-ins for walks and I offer "doggy day care." I am able to take breaks throughout the day for walks and playtime, depending on your dog's needs and usually do a longer walk or trip to the dog park once my work day is done. I also love hiking on the weekends if your dog enjoys longer walks.

Information Kathleen M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any specific needs or allergies. Also if they are friendly with other dogs or pets! I have administered oral medication to some of my client's pets, but have never injected medication. However I am willing to learn to inject medications or adapt to whatever your pets needs.

A typical day

I love walking and getting outside, so I always try to do a small/medium walk every 1-2 hours (but will adapt if your dog needs less or more time outside). I also love going to the dog park if your dog is friendly and enjoys it. That's the best way to get all their energy out. I also enjoy going on longer walks/hikes and exploring new routes.

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Kat! I recently moved to New Jersey, but was a pet-sitter and dog walker in Baltimore for years. I love all animals and will be happy to take care of any pets you have-big or small. I have experience with many breeds of all different ages and with various needs. I also grew up with several dogs, cats, and other pets, which has provided me with a lot of experience and love for animals. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Kat watched our dog Lucy over a long weekend. We trust Kat, our dog had a great time and received the best care. Lucy also had a lot of fun playing with Kat's dog Maeve.

Our dog Lucy had a great time with Kathleen. Lucy received the best care and had a great time spending the day with Maeve (Kathleen's puppy). We will definitely request Kathleen again.

Kat was great! We recently moved to the area from a city and we were very nervous we weren’t going to find as good and reliable people on Rover but Kat proved us wrong! Nash loved staying at her house and was so excited to go back the next day! We hope to use Kat again in the future!

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.
