I am currently an interior designer with a M-F 9-5:30 job. I know that sometimes that isn’t ideal for all dogs, especially smaller ones, but if you are comfortable with that I’d love to find a way to set up a routine that works best for you and your pets!

I will not be able to take any pets in my home because my cat is very territorial and likes to mark her territory if she is around other animals. Every pet is different so whatever schedule you have your pet on in your home I will do my best to match it!

Information Kathryn S. would like to know about your pet

If you have any information about your pet that you would like to disclose before booking that is totally fine. I have dealt with several breeds, sizes, and behaviors.

A typical day

When I take your dog(s) on walks I will take them wherever you usually take them, or somewhere pet friendly. Fun activities can include day trips, playing frisbee, going to the dog parks, going on pet friendly nature trails, etc.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Kathryn! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My family always had cats and dogs, and I volunteered at the Humane Society in Dalton, GA throughout high school. I continued pet sitting through college and my mid 20s, and took a break only when I moved abroad. Now that I’m back in the Chattanooga area, I’ve genuinely missed having animals around. I currently live in Hixson, and apartment life has made it harder to be around animals, so I would love nothing more than to care for your pets while you’re away! Over the years I’ve looked after dogs, cats, hamsters, geckos, horses, goats, pigs, and chickens, so a wide variety of animals are in good hands with me. Feel free to ask about my availability. I hope to meet your furry (or scaly!) family members soon!

My girls were well taken care of! Kathryn checked in daily & made me feel super secure about leaving my pups in great hands.

Kathryn is AMAZING! She took wonderful care of my dogs while out of town. She communicates regularly and left the house spotless! One of my dogs requires careful attention and receives routine medication and she was awesome about this. We felt so comfortable having them with her. Highly, highly recommend Kathryn for all your pet sitting needs!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
