WFH Pet Mom Turned Loving Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Kathryn – a lifelong pet mom turned loving sitter! 🐾 I WFH full time and can accommodate most pet schedules and I specialize in high anxiety pet care. For over 20 years, I had the joy of caring for my three beloved dogs—Taffy (21!), Lance (16), and Bella (14)—each of whom lived long, happy lives filled with love. Now, with a pet-free home and a heart full of love to give, I'm offering personalized, compassionate care to families in need of pet sitting, walking, and daycare services. Your furry family member will be treated like one of my own—with gentleness, patience, dignity, and respect. Whether it’s a walk around the block or a cozy stay, I go above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing environment where your pet can feel comfortable and cared for. I know leaving your pet behind—whether for work, travel, or life’s surprises—can be tough. That’s why I keep you in the loop with regular photos, updates, and honest communication so you can breathe easy knowing your best friend is in loving hands. Let’s make this easy and stress-free for both you and your pet. Reach out with any questions—I’m happy to chat!

Kathryn was great! She was very communicative all day, sent sweet photos, and my anxious dog was very comfortable with her. Excited to be a repeat customer!

I highly recommend Kathryn!! She went above and beyond for our puppy Draco’s first doggy daycare. She made sure to check in many times throughout the day and send lots of pictures. She even took him to the dog park to hangout! We will definitely be booking with her again when needed.

Kathryn has watched my cats, Max and Eleanor, several times over the past two years. She’s always taken such good care to keep them company and play with them and make sure no one is locked in a room (which has happened upon her arrival). I can tell they have a very nice bond when I see them interact in person and she also has tons of experience caring for dogs. I’d highly recommend Kathryn for any pet care needs.

Kathryn watched Mon for a several days over Thanksgiving, and he loved his time at her place. Since this was the first time I had left Mon, I was very anxious, but Kathryn sent multiple photos and updates each day to reassure me. Now every time we walk past her house, Mon gets really excited and pulls me to her porch to say "Hello." Can't recommend her enough. Thanks, Kathryn!
