Highlights
Pet care experience
Patient & Reliable Pet Care
I have over ten years of pet care experience, including caring for my family's small dogs, friends' medium dogs, and friends' cats. I have experience with both shy and anxious pets, as well as senior dogs. I strive to always provide a loving and safe environment, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to keep your pet's schedule consistent. I value clear communication and will send regular photo updates while you are away!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kathryn is a beyond excellent sitter! I had never boarded Cash in a sitter’s home before, so I was a bit nervous about how he’d adjust. He can be quite anxious and picky, but Kathryn handled all of his specific routines and preferences with ease, she truly went above and beyond to make sure he had everything he needed and felt completely comfortable. Cash had so much fun with her that he almost didn't want to leave, which is completely out of character for him because he's usually so nervous! She kept my mind at ease with daily photos and detailed updates, and she was so accommodating when we set up a Meet & Greet prior to the stay. Kathryn is professional, warm, and attentive. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Cash, and I will 100% be rebooking her in the future. Highly recommend!
We had a great experience with Kathryn! This was Windy’s first time staying with a new sitter after being with the same sitter for almost 3 years, so naturally he needed a little time to adjust. Kathryn was very patient, caring, and understanding with him, and kept us updated throughout his stay. By the end, Windy was clearly comfortable and enjoying his time at “Chez Kathryn” 😊🐶❤️ We felt very comfortable leaving him in her care and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend!
Sissi seems to have a happy time with Kathryn. We had to book at last minute, and Kathryn was very comprehensive. I recommend.
Kathryn was perfect to work with. She answered all my questions, was quick to reply, and always had an upbeat, positive way about her. Frankie came home happy and in great spirits. Kathryn actively provided "pupdates" and pictures showing how relaxed and happy Frankie was. I would recommend Kathryn to anyone needing a pup sitter, and I will most definitely reach out to her again in the future. 5 Stars!
Ghandi had a great time with Kathryn. Ghandi is a shy guy and she said he was great with couch cuddles! She was patient and he came home a happy dog! Definitely leave him there again.
Kathryn was wonderful with my dog and he absolutely loved her! They went on many walks together, she would take time to play with him, and by the end of the day he would be very sad to see her go. Highly recommended Kathryn to take care of your furry friend!

Schedule
I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to work from home or to come home at any time to let out pets, or to check on yours in your home. You’ll receive consistent updates, clear communication, and a sitter who follows your pet’s routine exactly as you prefer.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment that would be best suited to cats and small dogs. It is a small building with an unfenced backyard area, so would be best for animals that just need walks or cats that stay inside.
A typical day
I love playing with pets, making sure that they are happy and well-loved while their owner is away. I will provide as much exercise and mental stimulation that your type of pet needs, per your guidance :)
