Pet care experience
Worked for a doggie day care for 2 years and lived with dogs my whole life. During my time at the doggie day care I learned: dog behavior and communication, proper way to give various medications, dog training, first aid and dog etiquette. I have experience dealing with a wide range of dogs from high energy, anxious, shy, mellow, young and old. During my time at the doggie day care I was able to form good relationships with both dog and owner. I hope I am able to achieve the same through Rover. Just moved to Texas and looking so some extra work during these weird times. I am available to provide services at anytime and I am flexible with any of your needs. I have a nice backyard where your dog can run around or I am able to drive to you.
Reviews
Kathleen provided wonderful care for Hoku. It was such a relief to know that he was happy, safe, taken outside to play twice a day, fed, and most importantly received loving attention. Hoku loved Kathleen from our initial meeting.
Kat is great with dogs. I have worked with Kat many years and she is very experienced handling dogs. I have been on a long trip and Kat has been checking up on my pups. She has been very reliable and responds quickly to any questions and concerns. I love all the updates about what my babies are up to while I'm gone. My pups really love her and are always excited to see her. I recommend Kat to anyone looking for an experienced, loving and reliable dog walker or sitter.
When I first adopted my dog, Nala, in 2013, Kathleen and I were roommates. I had never cared for a dog on my own before and I was in school and working, both full-time. Kathleen helped me raise Nala as if she were her own, and she definitely taught Nala most of her good habits. Nala is very skittish and stubborn, which made training extremely trying. Kathleen would spend time with Nala every day teaching her basic tricks (sit, down, come, stay, etc.) and she played an important role in socializing her. One of the most important things she taught Nala was to love her new kennel. I graduated from college and made the decision to move home to Colorado, which unfortunately meant flying my dog there as well. Airlines require specific kennels and Nala had grown up using a foldable, wire kennel, which was not allowed. Kathleen spent time with Nala every day when we first switched kennels getting her accustomed to it, and then helped her to love it. Nala's kennel is now her safe-space! I will forever be grateful to Kathleen for helping her with that transition, teaching her so much in the early years, and loving Nala as if she were her own dog. I would fully recommend Kathleen for any service involving pets. She will not only treat your pets with the love and respect they deserve, but she will also leave them happier and healthier!
