Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover of all breeds and sizes
I grew up with German Shepherds and my last dog was a Staffy-Mastiff cross. I raised him from 9 weeks old and trained him well. He is no longer with us and I don't currently have a dog. I miss having one and I love dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have extensive experience in both raising dogs, as well as pet-sitting for others. I used to work at a pet products manufacturer where I was surrounded by dogs all day. While I love them all, I have an affinity for larger breeds, especially the bully breeds.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kathryn was fantastic, stepping in at very short notice to help with a meet-and-greet and then caring for Luna for a full day. Really appreciated the updates and pictures throughout the day.

Kathryn was so amazing with Rosie! I will definitely be rebooking with her again.

Our dog loved her day with Kathryn! She provided lots of attention and updated us on how Mila was doing throughout her stay. Kathryn was super easy to communicate with. She responded to questions pre- and post-booking quickly. Will definitely book again 😊

Kathryn was great as always! My dog loves spending time with her and I really appreciate the genuine care and attention she provides. ❤️

Kathryn took wonderful care of Ettore. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent photos, which gave me great peace of mind. She followed all of my instructions carefully and made sure Ettore was safe and comfortable. What stood out the most was how relaxed Ettore seemed at her house. I would absolutely book with her again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive sitter for their pet. Thank you again for taking such good care of my little guy!

Wonderful care, again! Thank you Kathryn

Schedule
I work for myself from my home office so I am home most days and able to take a dog out for potty breaks as needed. While I live in an apartment building, we have a fully fenced dog area for our building. And Stanley Park and the seawall are across the street from me so there is lots of space nearby for walking dogs.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have no pets in our home right now so yours would receive my full attention. Our building has a dog area and there are tons of trails nearby for long walks.
A typical day
A typical day will begin with a dog walk in Stanley Park and the seawall, followed by cuddles on the couch. I love going for 2-3 walks per day so I will exercise your dog as much (or as little) as they like! I don't mind walks in the rain but if your dog does, we will go upstairs to our rooftop dog park for quick potty breaks.
