A typical day

Caring for your dog is very rewarding for me and so much fun. There is nothing better than a dog (and a macaw). To begin my day I will just want to sip coffee and pet your dog in my home or on the front porch. Oh the fun times we will have. I can’t wait!!

I live for dogs!!!

Pet care experience

I am newly retired from teaching and now have more time to spend quality time loving on your dog. Our days together will be filled with kisses, hugs, treats, belly rubs, pats on the head, long walks around the neighborhood, playing ball, water play in the summer (if permitted) and so much more! I recently had to put down my chocolate lab Motley and so current I have my 23 year old blue and gold macaw Mcgyver to keep me company. My home is feeling rather empty now without at least one dog to love on. I grew up in a home full of dog people. We always had dogs of all shapes and sizes who were always our beloved family members.

This is my first time leaving Stella with Kathryn, and I’m very happy I did. I received lots of pictures and it was obvious Stella was having a great time. Kathryn has a lovely home and I would happily leave Stella with her again.

Kathryn was very relaxed and experienced for taking care of my dog ZuZu. She has a good home environment for ZuZu and no issues during the time I was out. I got three pictures everyday from Kathryn. ZuZu was happy with her. I would use her service again in the future!
