Responsible and Fun loving dog care

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Kathryn and I'm a professional who lives and works in San Francisco! In my free time you can find me hiking or running with our dog, swimming, or going to the beach. I'm here to help you go on your adventures while I take care of your dog! I have had dogs since I was 15 and love taking care of them and going outdoors with them. My husband and I have our own Mini Australian Shepherd keeps us active with all the dog activities. He is 5 years old and our best friend. Our routine with our dog is walks twice a day and when we can during the week we go to Ocean Beach or Golden Gate Park. On the weekends we're very active and take our dog Samson hiking, to Fort Funston, Camping in Yosemite or any other dog friendly area in the Bay so he gets some adventures in! On top of taking care of friends and family's dogs ranging from Pugs, to Golden Retrievers, Irish Setters, Westies and Mini Aussies I have also done volunteer work at the Hawaii Human Society walking dogs when I lived on Oahu. Our dog Samson also went through puppy training 3 which has taught me a lot of skills on how to work well with dogs. Aussies are notoriously smart and Samson always wants to learn something new or try a new experience! I have a car which makes it easy for us to take dogs on adventures to Golden Gate Park, Presidio, Baker Beach, and Ocean Beach. I also work a hybrid schedule so I am able to have flexibility on drop in visits for your animal if needed. I'm looking forward to meeting your pup and getting outside with them!

Kathryn was so good with our 11 week old puppy Koda that I don’t even think our pup noticed we were gone! Caring for a such a young dog can be energy intensive and requires a lot of patience, and Kathryn was a natural and made it seem so easy.

Currently, I am working a hybrid role so I have flexibility in my day job schedule to help drop in visit and or walk your dog. With my dog I prioritize his care based on his needs and I would make sure to do the same for your dog as well.
