Trustworthy, Reliable Dog Lover

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Kathryn and I love dogs. I grew up taking care of them and would love to meet yours. I currently have 3 dogs and a cat. I really like this job because I’m getting into better shape with the best exercise partners there are and I can’t get enough of those fur-babies :) I have been working out of my clients’ homes and my own taking care of my clients’ dogs since March 2019 - taking them on walks and giving them one-on-one attention. They enjoy cuddles and belly rubs, fetch, tug-of-war, whatever makes them happy. While I do accept last-minute bookings, I do charge a fee if there’s no time to do a meet and greet before the sitting starts. I am also very skilled at drawing and painting them, so if you’re interested in getting a portrait of them done, don’t hesitate to ask. :)

We’ve had Kathryn stay with our dogs twice and they LOVE her. She always takes good care of both our dogs and our home. We highly recommend Kathryn as she’s both reliable and responsible.

Kathryn is an amazing dog sitter! She stayed with our dogs for a week at our house and provided daily updates and pics. She took great care of our dogs and our home. We highly recommend her and will have her come sit for us again in the future!

Safety, trust & environment

I will do my best to stick to whatever routine your fur babies are used to doing so they will be happy. If there is a yard for them to run in, that will be how they go outside, unless walks are necessary for their wellbeing. Letting them out is easier, but their happiness and wellbeing is most important.

Information Kathryn R. would like to know about your pet

Any behavioral or health issues I should know about? What are their favorite things to do? Do they like cuddles? Play time? Is it okay to give them “table scraps”, or do you have a strict dog food only policy?

A typical day

A typical day will probably consist of lots of cuddle time in front of the TV, or lots of play time in the house or the yard; whatever makes them happy.
