Pet care experience
I've had both dogs and cats all of my life. Professionally, I've done house sitting and drop ins; looking to add dog walking to my daily activities to be more active and satisfy my dog cravings :)
Reviews
Kathryn
Kat took on our three big dogs for a 5 days and did a great job. Each dog has special needs in different ways and she was able to handle all of them really well. Great communicator while we were away.
Kathryn was great with our dog. She was punctual and communicative. Will be happy to have her watch our pup anytime!
We love having Kat watch our corgis. She knows how to handle two different energy levels, and attention requirements. She follows instructions to the letter, and takes pet care very seriously. She knows how much it sucks to leave your dogs at home and wants to make sure they don't miss you too much. She's incredibly lively and lovely to talk to, we can't recommend her enough.

No ask or request is too high maintenance - these are your babies! Happy to do whatever to make you feel better about being away from your pet.
Information kathryn m. would like to know about your pet
Over inform us the best policy. If your pet needs company to eat, let me know. If they need a water break or extra encouragement during a walk to finish, just let me know. And anything that you're working on training wise, keep me in the loop; I don't want to undo any good work you've put in. For play: if they can't be trusted in a dog park or open field off the leash, let me know so I can adjust fun times accordingly.
A typical day
I love fetch and tug of war. My favorite thing to do is endurance walking - walk, run, walk, run - in short bursts to wear the fur baby out while also giving their heart the exercise it needs. In terms of socializing, I have a few favorite dog parks that I enjoy.

Availability
I WFH permanently in digital marketing and always like to start, and break-up, my day with neighborhood walks. I only have a handful of meetings per week so my schedule is incredibly flexible.
