20+ yrs experience caring for dogs

Pet care experience

I've had dogs most of my life (shoutout to my dog, Moose!), have volunteered for 5+ years at animal shelters, worked at a pet store, and spent a lot of time with other people's dogs. I love looking after them and getting to know all their different personalities and figuring out what makes them smile and wag their tails. I'm very responsible and friendly and love all kinds of dogs. After receiving my masters degree in social work in St. Louis in May, I moved to Ypsilanti with my partner in August. We’re settling in and getting to know our new home and I’m excited to explore it more with your dogs! If your dog likes other dogs, Moose might be available to join us! I look forward to caring for your furry family members and putting your mind at ease while you’re away.

Kathleen is so great with our puppy! She is also very easy to communicate with. We will definitely book with her again.

Kathleen is a responsible dog owner and dog lover. She has experience volunteering at a dog shelter and has had training in dog care and nutrition. She will be an excellent dog sitter.

Kathleen is the definition of a dog person! She currently has a dog that she trained herself and has had dogs as pets her entire life. She can calmly approach a dog of any breed and make a connection very quickly. She is very loving with dogs and rewards them when they deserve it, but she makes sure they are disciplined (or something is reinforced) when they need it as well. Another aspect that makes Kathleen great with dogs is she has years of experience volunteering at dog shelters and working at a pet shop. She's pretty knowledgeable about dog's motivations and how to work with those and also about dog food. She helped me work with my rescue dog and easily explained how to select and transition a dog to a healthier type of food. I feel 100% confident in her abilities to walk and care for any dog in my extended family and friend network.
