Pet care experience

Animals are like family to me.

Have you ever seen a dog or cat's face that in an instant brings a smile to your face? It happens to me every day. Since June of 2017 I have cared for and visited over 60 cats and 12 dogs. That is over 200 dog walks and many a night shared the same blankets. with them. That is because I also do House Sitting. From San Jose, Willow Glen, Sunnyvale and the hills of Saratoga. I have cared for over 24 homes and their beloved pets. As I continue to grow my business with Rover , I continue to meet great people and their pets throughout Silicon Valley. There is a common thread that runs through us all and that is our pets are our family too. While you are away or on vacation , I can care for your pets worry free and keep you updated each day. I also take pictures each day and Rover can create a video that they will send you after these stays. This New Year will unfold as quickly as always , and with it new schedules, vacations, and springtime weather. See me at Rover. Thank You Kathy

Kathy is the best. We know that Bailey is well taken care of when we leave her with Kathy.

Kathy did a wonderful job with drop-ins for our kitty. We received updates & plenty of photos. She took great care of our house and completed all tasks. Most importantly, our kitty seemed to like her and seemed very comfortable with Kathy from the beginning! Thank you!
