Can I Pet That Dog?????

I love dogs of all kind. I grew up with a beautiful black lab mix named Sadie. Mylo, my 11 year old chihuahua mix passed away a few years ago and am waiting for my next fur baby to choose me. In the meantime I care for my extended family’s pets when they go on vacation and thanks to Rover, I’ve cared for over 35 different dogs in the past four years.

I do my best to stick to your pet’s regular schedule so that they feel comfortable while you are away from home. Your home and pets are my priority and I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your vacation.

Kathleen did a fantastic job with Baxter, Sam, Gypsy and Rosie. Dogs and cats loved her, and she let us know the status of our pets at all times. We will definitely be in touch with Kathleen when we need a sitter again.

Kathleen did a wonderful job with Nelly! And she even left the house cleaner than I left it. I would definitely use her again and I can recommend her fully!

Kathleen took great care of my dog, came home to my place being as clean as I left it, and did updates with pictures. Would certainly book again.

Kathleen was an amazing host for our dog, Ayla! Not only did she go above and beyond to make our little one feel at home both, before and during the stay, but she also sent daily photos. Kathleen’s communication was superb and my wife and I never needed to feel concerned about how our dog was doing while we were away. We highly highly recommend Kathleen!

I would like to know what a typical day is like at home as well as likes and dislikes. Sleeping, eating, walking, potty routine. Commands or familiar phrases.
