Pet care experience

Loving home to play and relax

I’ve been caring for dogs since high school, and it’s always been a joy. Friends and family count on me to watch, play with, and care for their pups. Big or small, all dogs are welcome—no pup is ever left behind!

Kathryn is so reliable and does an excellent job. She really cares about the little orphaned kitty. With good food and clean water, the little guy thinks he is in heaven. Thank you, Kathryn. We both feel blessed.

Kathryn is like having a best friend. In the course of taking care of our little lost soul cat, she discovered the front gate latch needed repair. Kathryn had her neighborhood handy man diagnose the problem, give me a "very fair price estimate, and successfully completed the job. I certainly hit the jack pot when I found Kathryn. She is the best at fostering a "win-win" relationship. Wish there were more people in the world like Kathryn. She restores my faith in humanity.

Schedule

I currently work remotely with later hours, so there’s plenty of time for morning and evening walks when it’s cooler out. I’m available for weekend boarding and some weekdays too—perfect for a flexible, loving stay!

Safety, trust & environment

While I don’t have an enclosed yard, my community has plenty of grassy areas perfect for walks and playtime, plus there’s a lovely park just a short stroll away. I’m available to house sit and would love to help! I do travel with my dog, so I would just need to make sure your pets are comfortable with another dog in the home. As long as your dogs are dog-friendly and your cats are okay with a canine guest, it should be a great fit! I have plenty of experience with dogs of all ages and can comfortably crate your pup if needed. Your pet will be in caring, capable hands every step of the way.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping dogs both physically and mentally stimulated! Whether it’s playing games, going on sniff-filled walks around my community, or visiting the local park near my home, your pup will have plenty of fun and enrichment. I’m also happy to explore other nearby parks or even go for a hike if your dog enjoys a little adventure. Every outing is a chance to burn off energy, stay engaged, and have a tail-wagging good time!
