Pet care experience

Your Dog's Temporary Best Friend :)

Hi, I'm Kate! I have cared for both personal and shelter animals and am dedicated to keeping your pets happy, healthy, and safe while you're away. I have experience with epileptic, paraplegic, and senior dogs, where administering oral medications and providing extra attention and support was necessary. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just snuggling on the couch, I make sure your pets feel loved and well cared for!

Safety, trust & environment

I am flexible to any of your requests on how you would like me to care for your pet in your home. I enjoy taking long walks or even transporting to other locations if you're looking for your pet to get out that extra energy somewhere else. I have a dog park right across the street from my home as well.

I have watched Kate take care of animals ever since the day I met her. She took in a dog from the shelter and stayed with him until the very end. Sometimes I think she loves animals more than me and that is probably true. We go on walks every other day to see our favorite stray cat “Mr. Whiskers”. She is a caring person and a great fit for this role!

Please let me know if your pet is highly reactive or has any adverse behaviors, as well as special needs, so that I can accommodate care accordingly. If there's anything you know of that I can do to make your pet happy and more comfortable with me, feel free to include that as well!
