Availability

I make your pet my first priority. I used to work from home and that was great because I was able to be with the pups all day and night. I now will be in the office on most week days. I do not work far from home so if needed, I can pop in at lunchtime.

Information Kathy F. would like to know about your pet

I just love dogs, all breads. My favorite breads are the ones that don’t shed but those breads are definitely more rare. 😂 Not to worry if your pup sheds, I will still love on them.

A typical day

I love to play catch with the pups but not all dogs are into that. We can walk to the park or I can drive them to the dog park. If they have a special toy, I will play right of way with them. My expertise is in petting and belly ribs. I used to be a massage therapist so when I pet a dog it’s more like they are getting a massage. They LOVE it!!

DOGS RULE!

Pet care experience

My jack, Russell terrier, Chili passed away in August of 2022. The house feels empty without a dog running around, but I’m not quite ready to be a full-time permanent mom just yet. However, I would love to take care of your loved one in My Home, and the house would not feel so empty. I have a fenced in yard. It’s not very big but plenty of room for a small, medium dog.

I felt the most comfortable with Kathy caring for my "son". I get extreme anxiety as my dog is my whole heart and the only constant in my life. Kathy sent consistent updates with pictures and her adoration for him was evident, I knew he was in good hands. It was a great relief and very appreciated. I will rebook in the future. Thank you for loving my old gremlin and treating him well.

Kathy and Chase have created a bond I could never dream of - she treats my puppers as if she raised him. Couldn't be more thankful and lucky. 100% recommend - except when Chase and I need her services :)
