They call me Dr. Dolittle

Pet care experience

I ran a Petsmart Pethotel for 8 years of my life. So, I have lots of experience with all types of dogs and personalities. I have also had dogs and cats all my life.

Kathy did an awesome job coming to play with and give love to our cat, Smokey, who is a very social kitty. She sent me photos of each visit. It made me feel very comfortable and at ease knowing that she was coming to keep my baby company.

Kathy has years of experience working at petsmart hotel. She also has a husky of her own. She is a animal lover since she was little. I trust her with my animals with all my heart. She also worked at a vet.

Kathy is a true animal lover. She's had animals of all sorts as long as I've known her (e.g. cats, dogs, gerbils, you name it). Kathy has cat & dog sat for us many times and has always done an excellent job.

Safety, trust & environment

I would treat someone’s pet like my own. I have a very active husky myself so we go on multiple walks, especially on the weekends and play sessions in the yard. I would cater any dog’s routine to whatever the owner would like. My goal would be to provide and safe and fun environment while the owner is away

Information Kathy L. would like to know about your pet

Most important to me is to know if your dog is aggressive or has any things they do not like (i.e. fast movements, touching feet, etc). Also important to know if they have any medical conditions

A typical day

I love to keep dogs entertained and stimulated mentally and/or physically. Love taking my dog Zeus to the wooded paths near the house. All the scents and sounds really help burn off that energy.

I have a Siberian husky if my own that I have to get ready in the morning and walk him before and after work. So, babysitting another furry friend would just be another part of that routine.
