Our pups absolutely LOVED Kathleen! And so did we! Such great communication with us. She went above and beyond with our pups. One needed some meds and she found a better way to give it to her. So much easier for us and the pup. I even had meds delivered while she was there and Kathleen took great care in making sure my meds got out of the heat and into the refrigerator. We couldn’t have felt more comfortable with her in our house and taking care of our babies. We will always pick her as our first choice. So friendly and sweet. I see a future with her in it taking care of our dogs.

She is a dream sitter! I hate to leave a review and word get out. Lol I mean truly she treated my dogs as her own. I am grateful and hope to have her sit again soon!

Kathleen was amazing. Our two Pomeranians loved her and followed her everywhere. You could tell from the pictures how much they loved her. She kept them on their schedule including multiple walks each day (the Ring captured all of their walks, and there were a lot!) To top off her loving care of our girls, she also gave them baths, washed the bedding, swept and mopped. I didn't have a single dish or any cleaning to do when we got home. I could go on forever of how loved our girls were and their medical needs being met by Kathleen. It feels like we gained a family member with Kathleen!

Kathleen is the absolute best! She is reliable, trustworthy and treats my baby like he is her own. I know when I leave George with Kathleen, he is in great hands.

Kathleen was absolutely fabulous! She took great care of my baby and kept me updated with pictures and notes about how he was doing. I was able to relax and enjoy an evening out, knowing that George was happy.

We knew as soon as we met Kat she would be the perfect person to stay with our babies! We couldn't be happier with her now that we’re back home. She was incredibly attentive, trustworthy, and communicative. I absolutely loved all the pictures and updates I received and our house was kept in perfect condition. She was so loving and attentive you could tell our dogs stayed in their routine by how comfortable and relaxed they were when we got home. It's clear she loves what she does, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you Kat 🙏🏼❤️
