Availability
Pet care fits very naturally into my schedule since I work from home as a freelancer. I have a flexible routine that allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs and keep their routine as normal as possible.

Safety, trust & environment
I really try to meet each pet where they are. Some pets want lots of play and attention, while others just want a calm presence and I’m comfortable with both. In your home, I stick closely to your routine so your pet feels secure and everything stays familiar. I also make sure they get plenty of care, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is doing well while you’re away.
Information Kathryn B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know anything important about your pet’s habits, personality, medical needs, or behaviors so I can give them the best care and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.
A typical day
I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable while you are away. This includes feeding, walks or litter care, fresh water, playtime or companionship depending on their personality, and consistent check ins throughout the day. I keep their environment clean, calm, and familiar, and provide updates so you always know how they are doing.

Farm-Raised Animal Lover
Pet care experience
I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by everything from dogs and cats to rabbits, goats, and horses. Understanding animal behavior and needs comes naturally to me. I love all animals and treat them with great care and respect. Over the years, I’ve raised puppies and kittens, cared for high-energy breeds like huskies and Australian Shepherds, and learned how to read each animal’s personality, whether they’re playful, shy, or need a little extra patience. Now I live in the suburbs and have two sweet kitty cats. I still carry that same hands-on experience and love for animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. P.S. I love to draw and include a complimentary pet portrait for first time house sitting clients! See examples in my photos.

Reviews
Katy is so kind and patient with our girls. We know they are in very good hands with her! Thank you Katy for being the best!!
I cannot speak highly enough of Katy! Perfect and prompt communication, picture updates while we were away, and I know our dog and home were both perfectly cared for!! She also left us the best sketch of our dog that is beyond impressive! Will definitely book again and recommend to everyone!
Katie (Kathryn) is wonderful! She has such a calm energy about her and we are so glad she is close by for drop ins and walks and house sitting if needed. I can tell the girls (our two huskies) are in good hands with her attention to detail and sweet energy. 💕 Thanks for getting to know our girls, Katie, and being patient with the one who is a little more scared of new people!
Katy is so amazing! I have a very unique dog that requires very special care and needs his routines followed to a T. Katy had no issues with him and said she really loved caring for him. That speaks volumes to me about her very professional and present dog sitting capabilities. I will use her for all of my future dog sitting because I trust her and can focus on why I’m traveling and not worry about my fur baby! My home was very clean and Yuuki was very healthy and happy upon my return! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 Lastly - the portrait she left of Yuuki was beautiful 💛
