Empty Nester Dog Lover
Pet care experience
In addition to having cats and dogs my entire life, I have decades of experience taking care of friends and neighbor’s pets both in my home and at their homes. I have experience with senior animals and am comfortable with administering medications. Having been a dachshund mom for 17 years, I know that sometimes a dog should have a little extra TLC - including carrying them up and down stairs, stopping them from jumping from furniture, or what your special family member requires.
Reviews
Very friendly and loves cats!
Always very friendly and reliable. Takes great care of the pets and home. My cat loves her!
Kathy was great with Cooper - sent pics and he was always smiling and happy to see her. We will book her again!
Kathy is great. She tried real hard to engage our shy cats and took good care of things while we were gone.
About Kathy B.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a house with a fully fenced yard. Guest dogs are treated as a part of the family with dog beds in the living room and our room. You can let me know how your dog prefers to sleep – with us, on a dog bed, or in their kennel. If you want to keep your furbaby (cats or dogs) at your home, I can do drop-ins to take care of them throughout the day and evening or house sitting, based on location.

Information Kathy B. would like to know about your pet
How is your dog with cats? Is your dog housetrained? What are their routine and schedules? - Feeding - Morning - Evening What are their known commands for - Leave it - Come here - Off - Stay/ go to your bed (spot) Are they food or praise motivated? If they need medication, what is your process? What other routines/ commands/ key words (aka "Walk" or "Run) should I be aware of?
A typical day
I walk in my neighborhood or at nearby Seward Park 7 days a week. I live a block from Chief Sealth trail which allows me to keep a majority of my walks away from traffic. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs can explore and a basket of toys and balls to play fetch.
