I have a flexible part time job, so I will have plenty of time to hang out and play with your pets! With an ever changing schedule I cannot commit to reoccurring long term services, however, if you are willing to go week by week I am most often available.

Safety, trust & environment

The safety and well being of you pet is my top priority. Knowing your pets boundaries and working to honor and maintain those for a comfortable and happy experience is my goal.

Information Kathryn D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are special commands or dietary restrictions that you would like to maintain. Also knowing any reactivity or triggers for your pup before hand will be helpful in making the experience as smooth as possible. If there’re any favorite activities that your dog loves feel free to pass those on, we want them to enjoy themselves!

A typical day

I love getting pups to a park or the lake, somewhere with lots of new sights and smells. And I am always ready with pats and snuggles. I want to make sure I am accommodating for all pups and will adjust the day and activities to make sure they are physically and mentally satisfied.

Excited to meet your furry friend!

Pet care experience

As a life long animal lover, I have had the joy of caring for four legged friends since a young age. I am comfortable around animals of all kinds, sizes and ages. I have years of experience both as a pet sitter and as a volunteer dog walker/ animal socializer at the Humane Society. Being a pet owner myself, I understand and will put forth the utmost level of care and attention.

Kathryn did a great job with our dog Amber! It was our first time hiring a sitter and she made the process so easy! Amber had the best time ever making a new friend, highly recommend booking Kathryn as we will definitely be booking again! Thank you!

Kathryn is just wonderful! She is patient, kind, and our boys have the best time with her when she watches them - you can feel their joy through the lovely updates she sends. :) Highly recommend her for all your pup-sitting needs!

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.
