A quirky dog lover doing what I <3
Pet care experience
I have been caring for dogs every summer since I can remember, and working as a volunteer to care for dogs for Sault Tribe for the last 3 summers. Caring for dogs have taught me more about self care and responsibility than enything else I have ever done, and I want to continue that trend, while still coninuing to do what I love. I cannot find many pictures of the doggies I worked with, but I do have some photos showing my love for the outdoors, which im sure your doggies will too! In my clients home, if they have a yard, the dogs and I would spend as much time outside as possible, while clients who dont have yards can expect their dogs to go on multiple walks and jogs with me, especially as the weather gets nicer and nicer. If the client lives close to the lake, and they are comfortable with their dogs going by the lake front path/beach (where it is legally permitted) thats a plus!
Reviews
Was great and patiently cared for my older dog. Would recommend her to anyone. Thanks!!!
Katiri is great when watching Buddy! She has done it a couple of times and Buddy loves her. Will definitely book her again
Katiri Sherman has been helping to take care of dogs since she was three years old in the home of her grandmother. Helping to feed and walk the dogs were her favorite past times. At five years old she was trying to rescue dogs that she felt needed help. She loves the outdoors and was often found playing with the dogs outdoors. She is a kind loving and caring young lady and would be an asset in caring for your animals.
Katiri Sherman is a wonderful caregiver to dogs. She is patient and thorough when deal with them. The dogs enjoy when she tends to them or takes them on walks. She would be an asset to any company.

I currently do not have pets, as my apartment does not allow it, however the most important thing for me is abiding by the request of the "parents" (owners haha). They will be fed according to the schedule that best fits their needs, water will be available at all times, and since I love the outdoors, as much outdoor play time as possible they will have!
Information Katiri S. would like to know about your pet
It's important that I know if they have any special needs or any sort of behavior rules I should reinforce, such as no hopping on the furniture or certain rooms they are not allowed to go in.
A typical day
Fetch is a no brainer, but sometimes I just like to take them sightseeing. With the permission of the owners, I'd love to go to any local dog parks or try to take them along the lakeside, which is my favorite place to chill!

Availability
At the moment I am always free after 4 on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays allowing me to spend the afternoon with the doggos! At the very moment I am accepting everything except overnight care at the owners house and daycare at mine. I am able to do earlier walks on my days off, so please don't hesitate to ask! They will accompany me on my daily walks and jogs, along with some extra time for outdoor play!
