Safety, trust & environment

I Will always have a leash on your dog. I will not bring other pets in your house. Will only allow visitors if you say so.

Information Kathryn T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how good the dog is with people in general, especially children, as well as how good they are with other dogs. I would want to know if the dog had any sickness, disabilities, or injuries prior or recent of which I need to be aware. I also would like to know how active the dog is.

A typical day

Depending on the dog, I will take him or her for a walk around the block or to the park, as some are not very social. We would play fetch in an enclosed area or with other toys such as bones, balls, sticks, and squeaky toys. I will be active myself as well so the dog knows he or she can play with interruption or fear of boredom.

Pet care experience

I had my own dog who passed away and I am also experienced in taking care of many different breeds, both sick and healthy, and more than one at once. I usually provide walks, play time, sometimes baths, medicine if they need it, and just general comfort for when I know a dog is missing his or her family when I sit for someone. I will treat every dog like my own dog. All dogs are precious and I would be delighted to take care of yours.

Kathryn was wonderful!! My very anxious pup got along with her great. She did an amazing job with all of our animals! Very communicative and sent tons of photos. Our house was spotless when we returned and everyone was happy! I will definitely be using her again!!
