Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring, and experienced dog walker
Hi there, my name is Kat :) I’ve been caring for animals since I was a young teen, not just dogs and cats, but horses and various farm animals as well! Through these diverse experiences I have developed a deep understanding of different breeds and their individual needs as well as passion for rescues! I’m also passionate about the care, attention, love, physical exercise, and mental stimulation that animals need to thrive. And have experience with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, supporting with medical needs, and dogs with specialized training. I care deeply about the importance of providing consistent and gentle training for animals and am happy to follow your training preferences as requested! I grew up with 2 rescues, a beagle and a husky mix and was heavily involved in their training. I was also involved recently in the training of a puppy to be a therapy dog and have previously been certified as a handler for a service dog. I have been doing pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family for over a decade now and look forward to expanding out to meeting and caring for your furry best friends as well! 😊
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am very calm and patient with animals as they learn, and am happy to take the time to reinforce the good behaviours. I value consistency in training, care routines and play. I am quick to ask owners questions for any clarifications needed so I know I’m always actively supporting the animals success and individual needs.
