Pet care experience

Just an Animal Person

I've owned dogs (and cats!) for 15+ years and have experience with many different types; hunting dogs, small house dogs, massive house dogs, and much in between. I am a responsible caretaker and give the utmost care to each animal I'm asked to watch over. I once adopted a kitten that was handed to me by a stranger, while on a run. I've house sat with a 175 great dane and been the lucky caregiver of a sweet geriatric prince named Chicago, who had more kitty tummy problems than your ex with IBS.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard as well as a gated basement to help keep the animals in safe areas. My dog is very friendly and curious, so I would make sure all parties feel safe before accepting in-my-home stays. Services outside my home are catered to the client's comfort level.

Dog Walking • Jun 07, 2026

I have an old and sensitive GSD that I am normally very protective over; I had to leave her for a week and the whole time I felt my dog was completely safe and attended to in Kathryn's hands. She provided meaningful updates and expressed genuine affection, support, and care for my animal. I would definitely have her care for my dog again.

Katie has watched our pets on numerous occasions and went above and beyond for us. She has a great attention to detail, does what she says she will do and she treats our animals as her own. I always feel safe knowing she is the person that will be caring or walking our animals. It is a lovely peace of mind when we are traveling and stressed or busy. I never have to worry when she is my pet sitter/walker. Highly recommend her to care for your animals.

Schedule

My day job is by contract, so my schedule is often flexible. I have an Australian Cattle Dog-mix-tripod-angel baby- named Scarlet and her worker dog genes keep me active, so I am intimately acquainted with the necessity of regular activity and bathroom breaks.

Let me know if your animal has any special needs, likes, dislikes, etc. Do they take flea tick and heart worm medication? Do they pull when on a walk? Do they bolt when a door is opened? Do they require running water from a tub?
