I love animals more than anything:)

Pet care experience

I will treat your dog like they were my own. If there are any special instructions regarding anything your dog needs, I want my clients to be comfortable telling me about them. I think every dog has its own personality and preferences, and through excellent communications skills and previous experience, I intend to give your dog the best experience possible, tailored to them as much as possible. Does your dog like to play during their outside time? I've got you covered. Are they an expert snuggler, or do they prefer their own time? I'm your girl. Do they prefer to focus on a specific part of their neighborhood during a walk? No problem! I come armed with 20 years of knowledge and experience with dogs, my own and sitting others, and I am ecstatic to apply that knowledge over and over again.

Kathryn was wonderful with our pups! They warmed up to her right away! We had her stay about 24 hrs overnight while we went out of town for work. And are scheduled to have her watch them a few more times as well in the near future. Very happy to have found someone who is a great caretaker for our babies! ☺️

Kathryn house sat and watched our two dogs while we went to the beach. She did a great job and our pups were happy!

Ryn was fantastic! My pup Aspen seemed very happy and content while we were out of town for a wedding! I've been in the Charlotte area for roughly a year now and have struggled with the idea that I haven't felt super comfortable with most of my sitters. However, Ryn immediately engaged with Aspen and was easy to communicate with over the weekend. Looking forward to booking with her again soon!

Anything they need. I really do love animals. I love to explore, I can take your dog(s) with me! Or, if they’re homebodies just like me, we can just snuggle up in the couch :)

Information Kathryn G. would like to know about your pet

Absolutely no breed preferences, I welcome any and all kinds, shapes, and sizes. Some important information I like to find out before sitting have to do with general temperament. Is there anywhere your dog doesn't like to be touched? How are they on a leash? Off-leash? When I put their food down, do I need to stand back and let them go at it? Are there any other animals in the house that need to be separated during times like feeding times, or outside time? I have dealt with a food-aggressive dog before that taught me to learn these answers before interacting with them. Absolutely no judgment if there is any aggression to your dog, it is just something I feel I need to ask!

A typical day

If allowed, I know of a few dog parks around where a game of fetch is always welcome, and friends are never sparse. If you just need someone to stay with your dog during the day and let them out occasionally, I can do that; but if you need someone to take your dog on walks so they can get some much-needed exercise, I'm happy to do that as well - and any combination of both. I'm very flexible, and offer tailored services. The last thing I want an owner to feel is worried about their pet when they're away. And, the last thing I want a pup to feel is upset that their human is gone.

I do work during the week, but my schedule is fairly flexible to walk or just drop in on your babies. I can stay with your animals if need be as well, really whatever you need.
