Pet care experience

Pets are family!

I grew up caring for animals, dogs, cats, horses, fish, cows, chickens, and a goat, having pets most of my life. My background is in healthcare while in the military. I have been my father's caregiver which allowed me to help foster puppy litters to adult dogs and care for a pack of 8 dogs-4 of which are mine while caring for him. I can now enjoy caring for other's fur babies giving them love and support. I am interested in always learning about animal behavior and all aspects of their care.

Safety, trust & environment

I am blessed to have my son's help caring for our dogs, allowing me to provide in-home and overnight care if needed. The number one goal is to adapt personalized routines for your pets so they are happy and healthy.

This was out first time hiring Kathleen to take care of our pups overnight! She was absolutely fabulous, followed their routine, send us pictures and even play with them more than we usually do. Very thoughtful person, she knows what she is doing. 5 stars for taking care of them and also 5 stars for communication. We will definitely have Kathleen back.

Kathleen was great! Prompt communication, updates and on time. I felt totally leaving my dogs in her care and they were thankful she stayed overnight. She went above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone!

Great communication, updated us with photos, and left my house better than when they arrived. 10/10 I will be hiring Kat again, so if you need her only when I don’t 🤣 seriously fabulous!!!

Kat was so great with Olive. She took the time to really get to know her and learn her quirks. The communication was perfect and she was very accommodating when my flight home was delayed. When I got home my house was clean and perfect. Olive was happy to see me and not at all stressed. I highly recommend Kat and will definitely be booking with her again!
