I love animals and am reliable!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, and fish in my care for years! I have spent the last 9 months fostering dogs, cats, and even a few reptiles. I love caring for animals!

She’s awesome. I really and truly appreciate her taking care of my Loki

Kathryn has dog-sat for me the last few years. I'm happy to report that she has taken great care of my dogs, large and small, to my exact specifications (feeding, exercise, etc.). Some of my dogs, such as my pitbulls and sighthounds (I have a saluki) can be a real pain to handle. I was skeptical at first, as I am with all first-time sitters, but Kathryn has consistently demonstrated she is strong, reliable, and competent. When you meet her, you should find, as I have, that she is easy to trust given her general demeanor and evident, vested emotional interest in the care of animals. She fosters a variety of animals at home and at school, which I know from experience to be challenging. I will continue to hire her as necessary and am comfortable reporting she's been our most trusted and respected dog sitter. Any questions, please email me (or whatever means seem available to contact me). V/R, CR

Information Kathryn F. would like to know about your pet

Through my time fostering animals, I have gained lots of experience with separation anxiety, reactivity, leash pulling, potty training, and many other behavior challenges. If your dog has trouble in any of these areas, I’m happy to work around it or make any accommodations you would like me to make! Let me know if your dog has any fears or if they have any particular routines/schedules that they follow.

A typical day

I love to play brain games with any dogs I care for! Whether it’s learning a new trick or just playing hide and seek with kibble, I make sure that all dogs get plenty of mental and physical stimulation throughout the day. I love to walk down around the soccer fields and the Columbus Riverwalk!

I am in grad school so I spend a good portion of week days in class with a few breaks where I come home to take care of my babies. On weekends and nights I am very much a home body, so I would have all the time in the world to love on your critters!
