Kingfield's Retreat

Meet me, Kathryn (Kat) After a few years hiatus, I’m thrilled to be offering services again! I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, and these days that love takes the form of a full house. I share my Longwood home (Sweetwater, near Sabal Point Elementary) with 7 mixed Chihuahuas, my own foster failures! Between my five girls and two boys, including a special-needs white male, I have hands-on daily experience with medication administration, epilepsy management, and caring for dogs with disabilities. I’ve fostered adult dogs and puppies (from 2 weeks old) with Chi Chi’s Rescue Ranch, Furever Bully Love Rescue, and Lil Rascals, so your pup will be in experienced, loving hands. My yard is fully fenced, and I work full-time from home, so I’m around most of the day to keep your dog company, on schedule with feeding and meds, and never alone for long. I’m flexible with pickup and drop-off times, just ask! At the moment, I’m able to welcome dogs 25 lbs and under. Looking forward to meeting your fur babies! 🐾

Kathryn was Absolutely Amazing with our babies! I had extreme anxiety leaving my babies but she alleviated it as she kept us updated constantly and sent us pics/videos. Zeus is completely (100%) blind and needs careful attention and she did just that! Rusty is energetic and playful and she was attentive to his needs as well! My babies came back happy and healthy! & We couldn’t have found a better sitter!

It’s important to know your dogs schedule and their personality ahead of time to ensure we will be a good match. Additionally, anything specific with feeding or medications should be discussed prior to booking.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
