Information Kathryn & Jason K. would like to know about your pet

**House-trained pets welcomed from non-smoking and non-vaping homes only.** No breed preferences or size restrictions, we love all dogs. Good temperaments required. Of course up-to-date on shots and flea & tick treatment, with a very recent bath please. Tell us about your pup's preferred sleep, feeding, and walk schedule, as well as any health or behavior details in your stay request. Thank you!

A typical day

Walks are plentiful and at any frequency or pace your pet needs. Neither of us is a runner, brisk walking is our top speed. With your permission, fun activities include car rides, squirrel watching, and ball chasing. Toys? Yes! Tug-o-war? Sure! If your furkiddo is dog park-friendly, we're happy to take them. Plenty of pets and belly rubs around the clock. Photos and/or videos sent daily! We follow your lead on treats, and are always prepared to pay the cheese tax.

Pet care experience

We’re dog lovers (currently without our own furball) and would love to care for yours. Our pet parent history: Over 18 years, we've raised puppies (black Lab and Boxer mix) and then a cool cat found us, making a party of 5. Post-trio, we rescued a middle-aged Boxer who was sweet on humans but not so much with other dogs and spent several years walking on the wild side with her before she became street-settled. We've been dog park regulars and hosted furritos of friends for slumber parties and were short-term vacation fosters. We've gently nursed our dogs through neuropathy, lung cancer, and Cushing's disease. We found great people to care for our girls on Rover and want to do the same for you! We miss being dog parents dearly and will care for your pets as if they were our own. If you happen to have dog & cat siblings, they are welcome, too!

Kathryn and Jon were amazing at the meet and greet and in taking care of our Akali. They were very understanding with her and asked many great questions towards her care to which I didn't think of or remembered to mention about. They sent many pictures with her updates and Akali came back super happy! Will definitely ask for them again next time!

Kathryn and Jason were incredible sitters! They were able to accommodate our last minute request and followed our care instructions wonderfully. They took the time to get to know our dog and his needs prior to sitting. Our fur baby received all the attention and love he needed and more. I received updates with pictures throughout the day. I would definitely use their services again.

You won’t find better dog care than Katie and Jason! Attentive, caring and loving- they went above and beyond with walks, playtime and snuggles. Benji had a wonderful time staycationing with them! Super great communication before and during stay, too! Our pooches will be back. Can’t recommend more highly. 🩷

Thanking our lucky stars that we found Katie and Jason on Rover. They are genuinely wonderful people. Their care and love for our senior dog, Abby, is exactly what we needed to relax and enjoy our trip. We loved getting the multiple times a day updates on Abby. Katie is observant and kept Abby super comfortable and happy while we were away. Thank you, Jason and Katie!!! ❤️
