Pet care experience

Pet Care? More Like Child Care.

I have lived on a farm my whole life with dogs, cats, donkeys, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, bunnies, and more. I have always lived in a household that has three or more dogs and cats at the same time, so I am used to tending to, caring for, and loving dozens of animals at a time. Because of my experience on the farm, I have been taking care of all types of animals since I could walk and started officially pet sitting in middle school, taking up jobs ever since. I absolutely adore dogs and cats of all ages and have taken care of various breeds, ages, and upbringings. Pets are a part of the family, and I will ensure that they are treated as such.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Since I have grown up with dogs and cats, I am very well versed in how to interact and play with, feed, and take care of said pets. I love spending time with animals, so they will get all the love and care they would be missing while my client is out of the house.

We found Kathryn on Rover at the very last minute, and we are SO grateful that we did. She graciously agreed to meet our entire crew—our Great Dane, Golden Retriever, and mini Cockapoo—and immediately put us at ease with her calm, attentive, and friendly demeanor. Throughout the stay, Kathryn went above and beyond. She visited three times a day and kept us updated during every visit with thoughtful messages and tons of adorable photos. She was incredibly accommodating and made sure all of our animals felt loved and cared for—not just the dogs, but also our outdoor barn cats and even our indoor bird. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pets like their own, but Kathryn truly did. We cannot recommend her enough and feel so thankful to have found her. We look forward to booking with her again in the future!

Kate is amazing!!! She offered to come over the day before to meet us and our dogs! We have never left our puppy with someone before and she made us feel so comfortable leaving our puppy with her! She sent pictures and updates throughout the entire day! Highly recommend!!!

Kate is GREAT! She has been taking care of my pets (dogs, cats, bunnies, ducks, chickens, and miniature donkeys) for the past several years. She is dependable, trustworthy, meticulous, and wonderful with the animals. Highly recommend!!!

Feel free to let me know any special conditions about your pet beforehand. I fully trust myself and my experience with all kinds of pets, but I always like to be extra sure that I know what I am coming into.
