Pet care experience

Home full-time, huge fenced yard

Hello, my name is Kate. I have been pet-sitting since 2017. Animals are my passion. I work in rescue and help Admin a large lost and found pet Facebook group. I have a large fenced-in backyard and a safe neighborhood to walk your dog(s) in. Since some people have a negative view of mobile homes, I want to be upfront with you. I live in a mobile home just outside the city limits. While it may not be the prettiest home to look at, it is home. It’s my home and I’m blessed to have it. It is a cozy, comfortable, safe place to live and take care of fur babies. I offer services for dogs, cats, and other small animals. If you're new to Rover ask me about my promo code for $20 off your first booking! Please note, that I do not watch pets with separation anxiety. I work all holidays.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I live on a 1.5+ acre lot. I have a nice shaded fenced-in backyard for your fur babies to safely romp around and play in. Since some of my dogs like to dig, as well as some of my clients' dogs, some of the yard is grass but some of it is dirt. This means that your fur baby will probably get dirty. This is a good indication that your fur baby was actively having a good time in my care. If you need a towel to wipe your fur baby off before your fur baby goes home, please let me know. Oftentimes the grass outside of the fenced-in backyard may be a little taller than what you are used to. I tend to let it grow, which is actually good for the environment and outdoor critters. Speaking of outdoor critters, I have pest control come out quarterly to spray around the perimeter of my home and yard. Unfortunately, fleas and ticks sometimes still show up. Having your pet on a flea and tick preventative, even if not booking with me, is a good idea.

Dogs seemed happy when I got home and not overly anxious. I appreciated the daily pictures.

Katie was great. She replied and kept me updated on Bear. He was able to play in her big yard so I know he had a blast!

I would like to know about your pet's personality and any special needs. Other than that, I have no preference in breed, gender, age, etc. I do not accept care of pets with separation anxiety or pets with a history of biting.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
