Mature, EXPERIENCED and LOVE dogs
Pet care experience
Hello there. I have been boarding dogs for over 10 years and have many regular customers. Before that I always had a dog. I am a dog lover that will treat your dog like my own. I have decided not to board dogs and stay at owners home from now on. Also I do dog walking. Safety is my number one priority while dog sitting and dog walking. I also take the dogs for daily walk. You can relax and go on vacation and know your dog is well taken care for. I send updates via text with pictures and videos to my customers so they can be sure their pup is having just as fun during his week as the client is. Looking for a mature, responsible house sitter, that does it all... look no further, send me a text. Look forward to hearing from you!
Reviews
Suki had a good stay with Kathy. She was a bit nervous at first with having Bella around but seemed like she settled well with help from Kathy. Overall a positive experience.
Kathy was an absolute pleasure to work with, in a busy holiday period. Kathy is very experienced in dog boarding and interaction behaviors between dogs, and was comfortable with my dog's larger size, which many others were not. Kathy initiated the request for a meet&greet, which was refreshing, and we were able to do an initial assessment of the home and how my pup would get along with her dog Bella who was very sweet. After a slow, but timid, introduction between the two dogs, they appeared to get along and both Kathy and I left there with a comforting feeling that there would be no aggression or other issues during my dog's week long stay. One other dog/client stayed at the home during our duration, but Kathy let me know that before we finalized everything up. Kathy's home has a very large back yard for the dogs to run around in. While I was away, Kathy sent me an update and photos to let me know how things were going and assured me that all was in good order. When I went to pick Simba up, he was enjoying himself in the backyard and almost didn't want to go. As my dog can be a bull of a leash puller, Kathy wasn't comfortable walking him every day, but she gave him plenty of exercise playing in the yard. Kathy was very professional and we will look to stay with her again in the future. 5 stars.
Kathy did a great job caring for our 2 dogs. She made them very comfortable and their transition was easy. She updated us frequently and was very accommodating with regards to drop off and pick up. She is very experienced and has a very calm personality. I would definitely feel confident booking with her again!
My two dogs had a great stay with Kathy! They came home happy and healthy! Kathy was very flexible and easy to communicate with. We will definitely use her again.

I care or walk all breeds. Any other house responsibilities I also do like retrieving mail, watering plants or grass, etc I make sure dog is in good health and gets plenty of exercise.
A typical day
I am in the process of studying to become a dog trainer and just finishing up by fourth book. I have been boarding dogs for 10 years now so I have had the best hands on training I could have asked for. My style for dog sitting or walk is positive reinforcement which just like children works great with dogs. You will see how good I am once you meet by love/dog Bella
