Pet care naturally fits into my routine because I’ve always been a dog mom. I currently have a dog of my own, so daily care, walks, and attention are already part of my lifestyle. I have a consistent schedule and make time each day to ensure pets get the care, exercise, and attention they need. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I make sure all pets are fed on schedule, have constant access to fresh water, and are always supervised in a safe environment. During walks, I stay attentive to surroundings and your pet’s behavior to ensure they feel secure and get the right amount of exercise. I follow any specific instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, or special care needs. I treat every pet like my own and always aim to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment.

Information kathryn d. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, I like to learn about their routine, personality, and any specific needs to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible. Please let me know about feeding schedules, potty routines, energy level, and any behaviors I should be aware of (such as anxiety, leash pulling, or being shy with new people). It’s also important to share any medical needs, medications, allergies, or special instructions so I can provide the safest and best care possible. The more I know, the better I can match your pet’s routine and make their experience stress-free and enjoyable.

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of attention, playtime, and structured care based on your pet’s needs. We’ll start with feeding and a walk or potty break, followed by playtime or enrichment activities to keep them happy and engaged. Depending on your pet, this can include walks around the neighborhood, trips to the park, or simply spending quality time together at home. I also make sure they get time to rest and feel comfortable throughout the day. My goal is to keep their routine consistent while making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for.

Pet care experience

I’m a dedicated dog mom with hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I have 2+ years of experience with puppies, including potty training, basic routines, and helping them adjust to new environments. I also have 3+ years of experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medication and providing gentle, attentive care. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own.

Kathryn is amazing at taking any animal. She’s makes sure they are feed and have water at all time. She’s takes them on walks and loves them with her life. She follows any time schedule they are on or need to be feed at. She does well with big and small dogs and any other animals.

Finding a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter is a true blessing, which is precisely what I found in Kathryn. Her genuine love for animals shines through in every interaction. Not only did my baby receive the best possible care, but I also received regular updates that put my mind at ease while I was away. Kathryn went above and beyond, ensuring that all of my puppy's needs were met with warmth and professionalism. I wholeheartedly recommend Kathryn to any pet parent seeking peace of mind and the highest standard of pet care.

Kathryn is a very caring and patient pet caregiver. She helps our family when we go out on vacation and I leave in peace because I know they are in good hands.
