About Kathy M.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets, ensuring they have plenty of space to play and explore. I maintain a routine that includes regular feeding times, walks, and play sessions to keep them active and engaged. I also provide a cozy space for rest, along with toys and activities to stimulate their minds. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their comfort and routine. I follow the established feeding and exercise schedules, ensuring their environment remains familiar. I also take the time to bond with them through play and affection, making sure they feel loved and secure while their owners are away. Communication with the pet owner is key, and I provide updates and photos to keep them informed about their furry friends.

Information Kathy M. would like to know about your pet
It's crucial to gather key information about the pets ahead of time to ensure their comfort and safety. Here are some important details to know: 1. **Dietary Needs:** Understand their feeding schedule, dietary restrictions, and any allergies. 2. **Health Issues:** Be aware of any medical conditions, medications they need, and emergency contact information for their veterinarian. 3. **Behavioral Traits:** Learn about their temperament, socialization skills, and any specific fears or triggers they may have. 4. **Exercise Requirements:** Know how much exercise they typically need and their favorite activities. 5. **Routine:** Familiarize yourself with their daily routine, including bathroom breaks, playtime, and sleep schedules. 6. **Preferred Activities:** Discover what activities they enjoy, such as playing with certain toys or going for walks in specific areas. 7. **House Rules:** Understand any rules the owners have in place, like where pets are allowed in the home or specific training commands they use. 8. **Emergency Protocols:** Have a plan for emergencies, including contact information and procedures for any potential issues. By gathering this information, I can provide personalized and attentive care that meets the unique needs of each pet.
A typical day
I love to keep pets engaged with a variety of fun activities! For dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks or hikes to explore the outdoors, playing fetch with their favorite toys, or setting up obstacle courses in the yard for some agility fun. I also like to incorporate training games that stimulate their minds, such as teaching them new tricks or playing hide and seek with treats. For indoor activities, I might organize playdates with other friendly pets, create puzzle games to challenge them, or simply have plenty of cuddle time while watching a movie together. Each activity is tailored to the pet's personality and energy level to ensure they have a great time!

Pet care experience
I believe what sets me apart as a dog sitter is my genuine love and passion for dogs of all ages. I have experience in both puppy training and caring for senior dogs, which allows me to cater to the unique needs of each furry friend. With patience and a gentle approach, I create a safe and nurturing environment, ensuring that every dog feels comfortable and happy. I also enjoy engaging them in fun activities and providing plenty of cuddles! Each dog is special to me, and I strive to make their time away from home as enjoyable as possible. ❤️❤️
Reviews
Kathy was amazing! She sent pictures and made sure to keep me updated throughout the weekend without me even having to ask! I will definitely be booking with her again!
Kathy M, has dog sat for me before while I was on a vacation. She took great of her. She would send me pictures whenever she would go over to fill the food and water and while on the walk and for the last time for the day when she would go over she’d FaceTime me while she played with my dog. Kathy is very good and loving to all animals. She’d do wonderful thing with animals.
Kathy M. Is a great dog sitter. She took care of my dog Coco for 6 months before we moved and were so sad to let her go. She is a very sweet, loving person with animals and anyone would be lucky to have her as a sitter.
