My remote working hours are a bit different from the typical 9-to-5, which means I have more opportunities to spend time with your furry friend. I can take breaks throughout the day to give them the attention and care they need. With the flexibility of my schedule, I can easily work around your needs, and we can find a schedule that fits both of us.

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to care for dogs in their own homes to minimize stress and maintain their familiar routines while their owners are away. This approach helps pets feel more comfortable and secure. However, I'm open to discussing alternative arrangements if needed. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any special requests or if a different boarding situation is needed.

Information Kathleen W. would like to know about your pet

Please share any quirks, dietary restrictions, medication schedules, or triggers (like storm or separation anxiety). Knowing their routines, favorite treats, and walking preferences helps me give them the best care possible.

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of fresh air, playtime, and cuddles 🐕‍🦺 I tailor activities to each pet’s energy level—anything from long walks and fetch to cozy indoor games or supervised yard time. I also give regular photo updates and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep their routine steady, happy, and stress-free while you’re away.

Reliable, Caring, & Kind Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a part of my life—cats, dogs, and even a few exotics like fish, hamsters, and sugar gliders 🐾 I love caring for pets of all kinds and have experience with seniors and those needing medication or special diets. Whether for a weekend or a month, I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d give my own. You can count on clear communication, photo updates, and reliable check-ins while you’re away 🏡 Happy to chat beforehand via Zoom, FaceTime, phone or in person to make sure it’s the perfect fit.

Kathleen is amazing! Our dog loves her. She is very communicative with us while we’re gone sending pics & updates. Plus our house is cleaner when we return than when we left! She is the best & anyone would be lucky to have her watch their dog!!

I appreciate Kathleen taking care of my animals and home while I was out of town. My pup took to her right away so I felt comfortable leaving the cats and dog in her care.

Kathleen took great care of Cooper and Bella! We met her before the date so she could meet Cooper and Bella. I felt so much more comfortable going on vacation knowing she was there with them and I will be calling her again. I highly recommend Kathleen!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
