Highlights
Pet care experience
Patient and Dedicated Pet Caretaker
Hi! Thank you for taking the time to consider me. I've been a lifelong pet owner, and welcome all types of animals! I spent two years in the professional dog boarding industry, and now I'm looking to work on a more personal level with my two and four legged clients. I'm comfortable handling dogs and cats of all ages, temperments, and medical needs. Patience and kindness is my motto. I promise to treat your furbabies like they were my own, and send you lots of photo updates! Notable past clients have included a 20 year old orange tabby, 2 guinea pigs, and a terrier mix overcoming severe fear and anxiety issues. No animal is too big or too small, too old or too large. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions! - Kathryn

Safety, trust & environment
I stay positive, calm, and gentle in my interactions. My patience is my best asset for building trust with your pet. I want them (and you!) to feel like they're in safe hands while you're gone. I like to stick to their routine as much as possible to help keep them relaxed and happy. I also make sure their environment stays tidy and clean.
Ratings and reviews
Kathryn was an 11/10 sitter. Such a sweetie and it seems like my girls loved being under her care. I would recommend to anyone!!! She followed instructions and communicated so great.
Kathryn is amazing! She is so patient and kind, my dog warmed up to her so quickly. I appreciate the knowledge she has and her attention to detail.
Kathryn is so wonderful at this. She is so good with our dog and communicates so well with us. This is our second time booking with her and she makes the whole process so quick and easy with us, without missing any details. She is very attentive and responsive.
Asks great questions when meeting your pet for the first time, sends cute update pictures and detailed post visit summaries. Highly recommend her. :)
Kathryn was amazing again with our dog. Great communication and did well matching his needs and quirks.
Kathryn was amazing for the whole booking! Especially as this was my first time using Rover, it was clear that she was very communicative and clearly shows she cares for animals. From our first meet and greet, she came very prepared and wanted to make sure my pup was treated well under her care. My dog can be rambunctious, but I could tell she had so much fun on her walks with Kathryn through the awesome updates and many pictures! I will definitely reach back out to Kathryn for future bookings!
