Home
Information Kathy C. would like to know about your pet
I adapt my interaction based on your dog’s preferences. Dogs have their own personalities and I respect their boundaries. Of course I’ll want to know the basics like your pup’s diet, routines, favorite toys, preferred games, triggers, etc. but it’ll be good to know if they have any anxieties, stressors, or special needs. The more information I have, the better care I can provide. The city can be so loud and crazy sometimes, I want to make sure I shield the more sensitive pups as much as I can. If you’d like to schedule a meet and greet, I’d be happy to swing by so we can meet face to face and make sure we’ll all comfortable. I don’t have any preferences in terms of breed, size, or age––I’m just thrilled I get to hang out with any dog! I like to keep the lines of communication open at all times, so I will send daily updates, photos, and videos so you don’t miss any memorable moments.
A typical day
I live by myself in the Kips Bay area. Madison Square Park is just a 10-min walk away, and Stuytown Park is a few blocks away from my apartment. My neighborhood is very dog-friendly, hence my dog envy. I am able to share space with dogs under 40 lbs––more for their comfort than mine. I’m also open to house sitting. When I’m booked to care for a dog, I usually try to work from home so we can get 3-4 long walks in during the day. There are so many wonderful parks, running paths, and dog parks around––I don’t think we’ll run out of places to explore. And of course, my favorite part is coming back and snuggling up on the couch. All I want to do is spend real quality time with your pup. I thank you in advance for the opportunity!

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Kathy—a remote worker based in Kips Bay and lifelong animal lover. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles—you name it—and I raised my Golden Retriever from 8 weeks old. Being apart from him inspired me to start pet sitting here in NYC. It’s the best way to fill my dog-shaped void and give back to fellow pet parents. I’m home most of the day, except for occasional workouts or errands (1–2 hours daily). I tailor care to each pet’s needs—whether they’re energetic, anxious, or just want a snuggle buddy. I’ve taken dog training courses, and I feel confident with all breeds, ages, and personalities. Location & services: I offer walks and drop-ins within 1 mile of Kips Bay, and I’m happy to travel farther for house sitting. I also provide cat care and love caring for small animals. Just message me if you have questions—I’d love to meet your fur baby!
Reviews
Great experience with Kathy. She was really good with our cat Sasha, got along well. Very professional.
Responsive, flexible, and kept me updated throughout the day!
Kathy always takes such good care of my cat!
Kathy took great care of our cat. It was our first weekend away as pet parents and she made it stress-free. She sent lots of photos and gave our kitty a lot of attention & playtime. I greatly appreciated her willingness to coordinate key exchange before/after the stay.
