Pet care experience

LVT on Hiatus

Taking care of animals has always been my calling! I have one fur- baby of my own at home. A cat named Gucci. (Plus three non- fur babies.) I was working full- time at a daycare/ boarding facility for over two years, where I cared for dogs, cats, and exotics from every walk of life. So far, I have never met a critter (or person) that I did not like. I also worked at several veterinary clinics, and maintain my license as a veterinary technician. I therefore know basic animal care and warning signs of potential problems. I also was trained in fear- free methods in hospital settings for dogs and cats.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am very safety conscious. So I normally like to double leash pets outside. I also keep a close watch on pets outside for potential hazards or toxins.

Kathleen did a great job making sure both our dogs and cat were taken care of. She visited them on time and made sure all their needs were met - the reports with pics we got each time gave us peace of mind. Highly recommended

My kitties were so happy. Kathleen took care of them very well. She also sent lots of pictures and a video.

So nice, and patient. We have a picky cat and Kathleen was able to get him to come out for pets!

So incredibly nice, responsive, and communicative! It can be stressful to leave pets for an extended period of time and she was so nice about everything, even sent pics of the pets!

Kathleen took care of Sadie while I was out adventuring and let me feel at ease. She sent photos to keep me up to date, let Sadie get her zoomies out and overall did a wonderful job. Will definitely be using Kathleen again!

Kathleen has been really great with our two kitties. This was our second Rover booking with her, and she really gave our guys some extra TLC while we were traveling. We'll definitely book with her again!

Every animal is an individual so it’s helpful to know their personality or special needs so that I can take that into account. If you know how your dog or cat acts without you there, that is especially helpful for everyone.
