Calm Loving and Dedicated Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I have owned at least one dogs my whole life. I recently lost my dog due to cancer and am not ready to have another just yet. I know how hard it is to leave your dog in the care of someone else and know the feeling of finding that one person who will love your dog as her own. I am that person. I am very attentive to the pets I am walking. Very experienced, also give medication if needed. I am quiet and responsible. I will take pictures so you can see how your dog is each day. I prefer to do overnight stays at your home where the dog is familiar and feels comfortable. I prefer to do weekend or longer visits, but am available to walk dogs after work if you have an engagement of some kind. I prefer the Fairfax area

We have 2 dogs that are our children (we don't have kids). When we travel it's always so stressful to leave them at a kennel, or with our vet. I've been searching for someone who loves dogs to stay with our pups in the familiarty of our house. Katrina stayed with our dogs over Memorial Day weekend and she is awesome! Our dogs love her (maybe a little too much). She was very thorough in terms of understanding our pets needs and she sent us lots of pics while we were away. So happy to find Katrina because she truly loves dogs and she is responsible and trustworthy. We've already booked her for another trip we are taking next month!

This was my first time away from Maddie since getting her 5 months ago. I was nervous to leave her because she was a rescue and came to me with severe separation anxiety after being abandoned in North Carolina. Because of this I really wanted someone to stay with her so she would get human interaction while I was away and not also have to worry about her regressing back into an anxious state. Katrina was fabulous. I got text, pic and video messages daily so I was able to thoroughly enjoy my trip and know that my nugget was well cared for and still had someone to snuggle in my absence. It took Maddie a little while to warm back up to me when I got home. I was only a little jealous :). Already have Katrina reserved for my next trip.

I have known Katrina since we were young girls. she is kind, caring, has great attention to detail. She is punctual, honest, hard working. She is a very pet friendly person. if I lived closer I would definitely ask her to watch my dog.
