Pet care experience

I can help you with your animal care needs, from as quick as short pop-ins to week-long house/dog sitting. I've been around all kinds of animals all of my life. I work in Bloomfield Hills so if you are in that area I can run over to your house on my lunch hour and let your dogs out. I live in Clarkston so I can stop off at your house on my way to or from work and let your dogs out/feed them etc.... I can go to your house after work and let your dogs out and I can even stay at your house for a short time or a long time or over a long weekend (I don't work Fridays). I routinely house-sit for someone who has one dog and MANY cats inside the house and outside, duties included feeding ferals as well as the local wildlife... racoons, deer, birds, turkeys etc. I house-sit for someone who has 6 dogs. I am open to all sizes and breeds and temperaments of dogs, ... I am familiar with all kinds of birds. I also have experience with many reptiles. If you have me stay over-night I can be company for your animals throughout the day. I spend quality time with them. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I own Staffordshire terriers but have owned almost every breed of dog throughout my life. (I would love to babysit a Greyhound just f.y.i.) I can stay at your house all day and all night if you require, for stays requiring several days in a row....contact me for the fee. Typically I charge $50 for over-night stays at your house, from evening until morning. If the stay requires me to be there further throughout the day, depending on how many visits or hours, the cost is adjusted accordingly. I have a jeep 4x4 so no need to worry about having driveways or pathways shoveled during the winter while you are gone.

Kathy is such an animal lover!! I've never met someone with such a huge heart for helping animals! I've used Kathy several times for watching my two dogs! They love all the attention she gives them! She has done day sitting and overnights. I highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!

I don't know if I personally know a bigger advocate for animals. Kathy is very caring for any kind of animal. She has helped out injured animals of various species beyond what most would do. She has always tried to help me when I have had some issues with my pets. She loves dogs and is very attentive to them. I would recommend her to care for anyone's pet.

Not only do I trust Kathy to watch my dogs at my home for weeks at a time, she has become Aunt Kathy. My Great Dane and Golden love her. How do I know? When she comes to the house, they are so excited to see her! I trust Kathy because they love her. Kathy rates high with dogs and humans ?

I am a veterinarian, and as my mom, I personally know how great Kathy is with dogs. She is the one who got me into veterinary medicine. She has been rescuing and fostering dogs for years, and has had personal experience dealing with behavioral cases. I would trust any of my own dogs and patients with my mom & definitely recommend her as a responsible and loving dog caregiver.
