Full time Loving & Attentive Care

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Kathy and I have lived in the Greater Philadelphia Area for 17 years. I have four adult children, four grand dogs and two grand cats. I am most experienced with dogs, however, throughout my life I have owned and cared for a variety of pets including cats, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, lizards and turtles. The area of Havertown that I live in is a wonderful dog-friendly community with endless sidewalks, low speed limits and nearby dog parks. I do not work outside of my home so I have plenty of time to devote to your fur baby. I can assure you that your pet will be in great care, great company and they will feel right at home with my family. I am currently being treated for pet allergies so unfortunately I cannot allow pets to sleep in my bedroom.

Kathy is my go to sitter! If you ever have the chance to have her take care of your animals you will be more than happy! She has a way of putting my cat at ease while I am away. She takes the time to play with her and interact with her! I am thrilled with the love and care she gives to my pet. I highly recommend her as being responsible and caring.

Information Kathy L. would like to know about your pet

Last year I discovered I am allergic to dogs and cats so I cannot allow them to sleep in bed with me. Sleeping arrangements are important to keep us both rested and happy.

A typical day

I love to be outside so I take 4 to five walks a day. I start the morning with a 20 to 30 minute walk and another one around 6 pm. Every 2 to 4 hours we go out for a short walk or to hang out in the yard.

Throughout the week I do have a few recurring 30 minute walks at other clients' homes so I can be out of my home for short periods of time. I always try to run errands on days that I do not have a dog in my home.
