Flexible, experienced and loving

Pet care experience

I’m NOT afraid of getting dirty by your companion(s), be it them jumping and/or snuggling with me. I absolutely love and care for all dogs no matter the breed or weight. I have endless love for all animals and am excited to meet as many new personalities as possible! I do respect all training needs and am willing to help you with any complications with training. I do have experience of over 5 years working in the doggy daycare industry. I want to point out for any overnight stays, walks, or dropins that I try to stick to routine as much as possible! Whether it be crate training, daily learning habits for puppies or walks at certain times. Most important experience in
: - dog aggression - overnight care
 - medication requirements like injections/oral and feeding 
- snuggles and love 
 - dog behavior
 -obedience training 
 -dog first aid and safety -anxiety/stress 
Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your little fluffy companion soon!

Kathleen was AWESOME! She stayed with my pups at my residence and kept really good care of not only my pups but also my home. She was very neat and left everything how I left it. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you again Kathleen!

Did not arrive at scheduled time multiple days in a row, did not respond to any messages about why she did not arrive and never returned the key to our apartment.

I DO NOT take dogs at my own residence but at there home! I try to stay to the owner and animals usual routine to make any adjustment to you being gone easier!

Information Kathleen S. would like to know about your pet

anything vital to there health and well-being that the owner thinks is important. Personally I would like to know: -allergies (if known) -aggression towards other animals or people. Usually I will learn all of this over a phone call or a meet and greet but love to know in advance. - how long your companion is allowed to be left alone if at all. I have no breed restrictions! That includes my acceptance towards pit bulls, doberman, German Shepard! I was raised with many breeds and have love towards them all. I understand all dogs are different. I have experience with many breeds since working at a dog daycare.

A typical day

I'm very accommodating to any dog parents needs. When walking your pet(s) I'm either walk them were you usually take them, or I head down to the dog park and get there energy out as much as possible if you prefer that. I've walked dogs around so many areas including gigharbor, Tacoma, federal way, Puyallup, Seattle, Auburn, Kent, clients Neighborhoods, and through the cushman trails (many more). I'll get your dog all tuckered out and exercised as desired! One of my favorite things to do with your snuggle buddies is to play fetch! Gives the cutest pictures, makes them happy and tires them out for us all!
