Pet care experience

Your kids are treated like mine!

I have always been an animal lover, having multiple cats, dogs, chickens and taking care of the animals on my aunt’s farm since I was a child. I work at a doggy daycare which has enhanced my knowledge of different breeds energy levels, mannerisms and needs as they grow older. I would love to give your furry kids all the fun, love and care they would otherwise miss while you are away!

Lady loved having Kathryn stay with her over the weekend! She was very communicative and flexible, and so considerate of our home. Will definitely use her again in the future!

Kate was awesome and she kept me posted about the pups at all times. She took care of the house and left it spotless! She was amazing and I would hire her again.

Kathryn took great care of our 2 beagles while we were away. I know they'll miss her. She even swept up(they are messy) and cleaned off the kitchen counters. We would definitely request her again, in fact we already did.

Kate has been wonderful with my senior dog - Olive. I need someone who will stay with her when I travel so Olive can be at home where she is comfortable and not stressed. Very happy to have found Kate!

Kate was absolutely amazing! We were so worried about our special needs cat while we were out of town but both of our cats and dog loved her!! She was able to get out very shy cat to eat his medicine and play with her in such a short amount of time. We will definitely be using Kate in the future when we’re out of town!

We felt very comfortable having Kate stay with our 2 pups. One is 9 months and very active. She even made him an enrichment toy to keep him mentally stimulated. We will be booking again with her!

Where your pet will stay

Home characteristics

Has 1 cat

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow any instructions or suggestions you give me and always respect your home. If you have a fenced in yard I will let your kids run wild, if not, I will happily take them on a 30 min walk minimum and play with them lots afterward so they get a good exercise! I will give them lots if attention and kisses and send you pictures of them living their best life!

Pets

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog(s) physically and mentally. We’ll play games, check out all the smells they want throughout your neighborhood and I’ll even play hide and seek with treats around your house or yard! If you have cats, I’ll be sure to let them relax, enjoy watching the birds and experience the outside through windows and play with them with their favorite toy, maybe even adding some extra fun(catnip). They will also enjoy plenty of kisses, pets, cuddles and love while you’re away!

Cats
kathryn can host up to 2 pets per night
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors/mannerisms that I can account for. I prefer giving dogs/cats medication in their food instead of ‘pilling’ them so I don’t violate their space or trust.
