Doggy Day Care • Jul 26, 2026

Katheryn was Billie Holiday’s very first pet sitter and she did not disappoint - took the time to play with her, take her on extra walks, gave regular updates, and sent us pictures the entire time. Will definitely rebook if we’re in St. Louis again!

Boarding • Jun 13, 2026

Our cat and anxious dog had the best stay with Kathryn. My pets loved her immediately and she was extremely kind, professional, and warm. She was detailed oriented and give me great updates throughout the stay. 10000% recommend her!!! One of the best experiences I’ve had with a pet sitter in the past few years!

House Sitting • Mar 31, 2025

Kat stayed at our house with Olive and took exceptional care of both. We received pictures and updates twice a day which was much appreciated. Our house was spotless when we returned, all mail and packages neatly collected. Kat was an outstanding caretaker, handling a medical issue with Olive that needed a late night visit to emergency care. She handled it professionally, contacting us immediately to let us know about the situation and approve her suggested course of care. We had a positive outcome and could not have asked for a more caring person to have watched over Olive and our house. Thank you very much. Highly recommended!

House Sitting • Aug 30, 2024

Kathryn stayed at our house to watch our German Shepherd Nova while we went on vacation. She is a great communicator and took awesome care of our pup. Nova was happy and the house looked untouched. So nice to come home to. Would highly recommend!

Kathryn has cared for all of my pets, most recently my one year old puppy. She is a kind, caring and completely trustworthy petsitter! My puppy is always so excited to see Kathryn- she has a happy demeanor, loving nature, and is extremely patient with my very busy puppy. I never worry leaving my pup with Kathryn. I highly recommend Kathryn- punctual, reliable and most importantly, a true animal lover. I can’t say enough good things about Kathryn ❤️

Kathryn is amazing with dogs! She was long time dog owner for most of her life in which she took great care. She would walk them, play with them, cuddle, and love on them daily. Also she is the go to dog sitter for her friends and our family. When anyone Kathryn knows needs a dog sitter they come right to her because she will accommodate her whole schedule to make sure it’s best for the dog. Countless times I have FaceTimed her and she’s dog sitting someone’s dog, and everytime it seems to bring her great joy. I have a cat and she will even watch mine and is great with her. She has a natural connection with animals, they all seem to love her. She is extremely responsible and trustworthy. Leaving my pets with her I never had to worry ever.

Safety, trust & environment

I would care for each animal as if it was my own. I would give it my entire attention for the entirety of the walk/sitting and never let it leave my sight! I allow animals on my furniture but am also very obedient for how each and every animal owner allows and cares for their pet. I follow instructions extremely well and am pretty flexible!

A typical day

Go on fun walks and play in my apartment! I also have a doggy park at my apartment complex! We can play ball and fetch at parks as well!!
