Local Vet Tech

Pet care experience

Since day one I have had dogs and cats in my life! I've had two english setters but have cared for many dogs in between. I graduated from the University of Vermont as an Animal and Veterinary Science Major. I have worked as a small and large animal veterinary technician since 2016. I just moved to South Portland from MA! 😊 I am also a (human) nurse in Biddeford and live with my two cats and my roommates pug, Guppy. Please note I am ONLY available for walks and drop in visits at this time. I can do long term pet sitting for cats as well.

Kat did an amazing job! She treated our kitties like they were her own ?

I love using Kathryn! Most importantly Dill loves Kathryn. She always takes great care of him and Dill always gets so excited when I tell him Kathryn’s coming! Sometimes I book random walks with her just to make Dill happy. She’s been a great asset to the training I’ve been doing with Dill also and accommodates any additional requests or details I may need. I was skeptical about letting at the time a stranger into my house but I trust her completely and she most definitely is not a stranger anymore 😊 I can’t say enough of good things about her!

Kat truly cared about my kittys and sent plenty of pictures and progress notes at every visit. She made me feel so comfortable leaving them in her care and I felt that they were so well cared for. One of my cats has meds and Kat had no issues with giving her meds. I would not hesitate to leave my kittys in Kat’s care and would highly recommend her!!!

Information Kathryn D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know ahead of time if they have any leash aggression, what kind of harness/leash set up you use, what their recall is like just in case, and if they are friendly with other dogs if we pass one.

A typical day

I am only available for walks in a location of your choosing and a little play time if requested. I have a dog and two cats so unfortunately I cannot bring any into my home.
