Pet care experience

Reliable and loving pet care

I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with Golden Retrievers and Labs, currently have a large German Shepherd hound mix, and previously cared for three cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities. I’ve handled leash reactive dogs, overly excited puppies, nervous cats and dogs, dogs who pull or prefer not to socialize on their walks, and everything in between. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace, I’ll care for them with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own pets. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in kind, reliable hands.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I know pets feel most secure in their own environment, so I take the time to follow their normal schedule for meals, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and attention. I treat every home and pet with respect, keeping spaces clean and providing plenty of love, patience, and companionship. I’ll send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

Kate showed up on time and provided a great experience for my two dogs. She is extremely kind and great with animals. Her nursing background provides an empathy few possess. Will keep hiring her.

It’s important for me to learn any routines, and feeding or medication schedules that your pet is used to ahead of time. Also, it is important to know if they have any issues walking on a leash, with other dogs or kids, or during their feeding times.
