Magic Dog Land Pet Sitting

Pet care experience

Thank you for visiting! Kathy~ When I first became a dog owner I rearranged my work and basically my life so that I could spend a lot of time with my dog and cat. I truly believe our furry companions are family and our best friends. About this sitter: I've recently moved back to my home town of Lexington, Kentucky. I've been a massage therapist for 15 years, and love making artful pieces from nature, painting and drawing. My background also includes being a pastry chef, and making custom crafted aromatherapy products. I've been around dogs and cats for a long time, and love them all wholeheartedly. I promise to give the absolute best care to your very special furry companion while you're apart. I'm trained in Pet First-Aid and Pet CPR and have a first-aid kit on hand as well as several homeopathic remedies for pets, and with my experience in aromatherapy, I also have many, many essential oils available - all for the unlikely occurrence of an accident. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover and animal lover in general for my entire life. There were dogs and cats in our family when I was growing up. As an adult I actually didn't have my own dog until many years ago (now), and thought I was happy with only cats. Now, I can't imagine a life without dogs. I spend more time with the animals in my home than with people, and am extremely comfortable around them. To me, dogs and cats are people too, and they express their feelings so openly, are always happy, and are simply a pure joy to be around. Meet my pets Ira is a Beagle/Jack Russell who is 13 He is used to being around new dogs, and makes friends quickly. Since his brother and my doggy soul mate, Dodger, passed, we've been especially close. I also have a 10 year old kitty named Mercury, who is beautiful, sweet, and very shy. My experience administering medication I'm comfortable administering medication, and am also PetTech trained in Pet CPR & First-Aid. I carry a variety of homeopathic remedies for pets, and have many essential oils (which dogs respond very well to.)

I will definitely use Kathy’s services again. She is a very nice person and communicated everyday with pictures and messages about my kitties. Even my shy cat who usually doesn’t come out to visitors, warmed up to her and was social when she was there. Thank you!

Kathy was wonderful and my cats adored her! I would definitely recommend and would love to use her again whenever we are away.

Kathy was able to accommodate me with a late night visit and an extra dog. I foster dogs and took in an additional foster dog a couple of days before Kathy's visit. She had no problem with it and the visit seems to have gone perfectly fine. She also sent pictures and a message after her visit, which was really nice to get.

Kathy was fantastic with my new pup. She was able to adjust to changing demands (as every new puppy demands) and sent updates daily. She loves dogs and it shows through her work.

Please let me know of any medical information (allergies, medications to be administered, special diets, physical/emotional troubles). Does your dog get along with people and dogs?

I know it's tempting for a dog to mark, and mistakes do happen, but please remind your dog that he or she is to use the bathroom outside - thank you.
