Pet care experience

I am retired and available to help care for your pet. My husband and I have been married 43 years and we have raised and loved 4 dogs in our married life as well as 2 cats. I enjoy the walks and drop in’s almost as much as the pets do. I have the available time to devote to your pet when you can’t. I have been a runner that over time graduated to walking. So I know that having the time to take care of what you’re not able to do is something you want to be able to have a dependable person take care of. I’ll be able to walk and care for your family animal member in the amount of time you require. I can also drop in on your cat(s) family members. As I have plenty of ongoing experience with cats. Owning our pet-Oreo for the last 15 years. Before Oreo we owned Milo too. Feel free to contact me as you need.

Kathy did an excellent job taking care of our dog, cats, and chickens. All animals were happy and healthy when we arrived back home. We were gone for a week. I usually return home to cat toys everywhere, and dry cat food and cat litter on floors. Kathy, however, cleaned up after the kitties. Everything was as it was when we left! Her communication with us was excellent, and she asked questions if needed. We would definitely recommend her!
