I’m here to care for your pet!

Pet care experience

I've owned and cared for dogs my entire life. I've volunteered with multiple animal shelters and rescues where I learned various dog walking techniques for all sizes from 100+ pound Pitbulls to tiny dachshund mixes, along with obedience training. I work only 10-15 minutes from my house so it's very easy for me to pop back and forth for potty breaks etc. We have a great yard with plenty of areas to play and sun themselves. 8 foot fence. I love taking dogs on hikes and strolls. I'm also happy to just play, cuddle, and make sure your dog feels comfortable in his/her environment. I’m available to drop in, sit at your place, and board your dog as long as they are dog friendly. Feel free to reach out for any referrals or information.

Excellent quality care for my lil one .kathleen is amazing and she took good care of my dog .she would send me daily updates and pics. So I was not missing him on my vaccation. First I was nervous how my lil one will stay with 3 dogs but he came very happy and started missing their buddies.Highly recommend her!

Kathleen did a great job hanging out with Fred. Being an English Bulldog he’s stubborn and had some unique needs (allergy meds, face cleaning, not wanting to get into his crate, etc.). She came over and got to know him before we left. She communicated via texts and Rover. It was a great experience.

Kathleen is amazing. She's great with my puppies during her drop ins and very professional. I would recommend her to anyone who needs her services.

Cedric was so happy and content after his walk! Kathleen got him to do his business and hung outside with him for a bit. She was super attentive and gave me lots of info on their walk which was very appreciative.
