There is time for play every day!

Pet care experience

Hello, I’m Kate! I am looking forward to meeting you are your family. I love helping people connect with their companions & create a harmonious home together. I have been professionally walking, training, boarding, and connecting with dogs for over 11 years. I work full time as a service dog trainer for veterans, and am only available after 4pm on weekdays. I am an experienced dog trainer and caregiver. I use science based, positive reinforcement training methods only. No aversive equipment or corrections. I am a certified CCPDT trainer and have a Service Dog Trainer Certificate from Bergin College of Canine Studies. I am comfortable with all shapes, sizes, age, special needs, medical conditions, and anxious, shy, or other unique personality types. I also love to take photos and videos, so you can count on lots of pictures!

Kathryn was an amazing dog sitter and company for my Cleo for a long day. I will definitely hire her again.

Kathryn is incredibly skilled with dogs. She has worked at an off leash dog boarding place for years and has TONS of experience with all kinds of dogs in all kinds of situations. But above all, she LOVES dogs. She lights up whenever she sees a dog and spending time with dogs is one of her favorite things. You can't ask for a better person to trust with your dogs.

Kathryn is awesome! She communicates well and does a great job at keeping me informed about what my pups are doing while I am gone!

Katie was wonderful with our 11-week-old very social puppy. She kept us updated on everything and loved the photos!
