Pet care experience

Reliable, loving and safe pet care

I have experience with senior dogs requiring medication and special diets. I have experience with caring for dogs of all ages. I love animals and respect each animals personality and adjust accordingly. I understand how much your pet means to you and will be very attentive to them. I have references if needed. I’m employed full time but, very flexible. I absolutely love animals and will treat your fur babies as if they are my own. I have always had a dog in my life and understand they are family members. I have raised 3 yorkies and they lived to be 15,16 and 17 years old. I wanted to be involved with animals and saw this opportunity and would love to help care for these precious little creatures. I have experience working with many animals and have rescued several animals throughout my career as a police officer. I don’t have personal experience with cats, but I’m open to caring for them as well. I would love the opportunity to love on your sweet fur babies. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kathryn is phenomenal. I have had her housesit for my 3 year old 10 pound toy poodle twice now. He suffers from separation anxiety and cannot be left alone for very long. The 2 times Kathryn has sat for me I was gone for long weekends. She stayed with him the entire time never leaving him alone. He absolutely adores her and is extremely comfortable with her. She is very loving and has no problems following the instructions I leave for her. I will only have her sit with him.

There is no other sitter that I would even consider watching my little teddy bear. She treats him like he’s her own. She’s phenomenal and I highly recommend her.

Location and Vets name. I need to know medications and what is the limit on treats. What are their favorite things to do? Where is their leash and toys. Are they allowed on the bed, couch, etc…? Any known health issues or concerns.
