Safety, trust & environment

Safety, Trust & Environment: While I am at your house, I try to find a spot to sit and hang out in areas where your pet is most comfortable. I will sit and watch movies and I'm always more than happy to cuddle up if they want to! If I'm not watching movies I will be working on my laptop. I follow any schedule left for me regarding feedings times, walks, meds, etc. At night, if your pet wants to sleep in bed with me I am more than happy to welcome them up.

Information Katrina H. would like to know about your pet

Important Things to Know Ahead of Time: Any behaviors to look out for? How long of walks do they like? Are they friendly with strangers/new people? Are they friendly with other animals? What does a typical day look like? During a typical day, how long are they alone?

A typical day

A Typical Day When I Watch Your Pets: I love to go on walks with the dogs I watch. It's fun and exciting to explore new neighborhoods and walking routes. We also engage in some tug of war or other playtime with their toys. You may find me talking to your pets like they are humans. I enjoy telling them about the things we are doing, or going to do for the day.

Experienced Pet Sitter + Plant Care

Pet care experience

Updated: 3/23/2026 I’m an experienced and compassionate pet sitter caring for dogs, cats, and parrots of all sizes and personalities. What started as helping family and friends quickly grew into a trusted, referral-based network of wonderful clients—and I’m excited to now connect with more pet owners through Rover. I’m committed to making your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and routine. I also have experience administering both pill and liquid medications and am happy to follow detailed care instructions. Puppies receive frequent potty breaks (every 2 hours), while adult and senior dogs are walked every 4–6 hours, or as requested. When house sitting, I ensure pets are not left alone for more than six hours and spend most of my time at home, so your pet will have plenty of companionship. They’re always welcome to sleep in bed with me if that’s what they’re used to! With a degree in horticulture, I also offer plant care while you're away—so you can return home to happy pets and thriving plants. After losing my Giant Schnauzer, Hansel, in December 2024, I’ve found a lot of meaning in providing care, comfort, and companionship to the pets I look after. It’s truly something I love to do. I maintain a flexible schedule and do my best to accommodate your needs. I’m also happy to provide references upon request.

Katrina did a great job with staying with my dogs this weekend. She was punctual and sent several updates on what was happening. The dogs were happy and well cared for.

Katrina is fantastic! She is super attentive and our dog loved her. She is a great communicator and very conscientious. Next time we are out of town, she’s going to be our go to dog and house sitter!!

Katrina did a great job with the three cats, and administering a topical medication that they are not keen on receiving. I got plenty of pictures of the cats throughout her stay. It's our first time using Rover and everything went as perfectly as could be.
