Our dog loves Kathleen. She is warm and kind and takes great care of our dog. Sends pics all the time. We wouldn’t trust him with anyone else other than Kathleen.

Kathleen was awesome! She was very communicative throughout caring for my kitties, punctual and very respectful of my space and care for my babies while I was away. She was such a great sitter and will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you!!
