My friends have fur and four legs!

Pet care experience

I have experience with big and small dogs and cats. I have raised and watched other’s puppies, and also have experience with seniors. I have a 15 year old Pomeranian myself, and have also watched a few other senior dogs from other owners. I had my first experience with a small breed, then my second was a medium sized dog. I have also taken care of several cats. I have a 105lb Labrador at home, so I also have quite a bit of experience with a large breed. I haven’t worked professionally, but I’ve done a lot of personal care. I also will ALWAYS take home a stray dog/ cat if I see one. I know how to bathe, groom, and remove fleas from various sizes of animals. I love all dog breeds and sizes. I have yet to meet an animal I do not get along with (:

Best sitter ever!!! Kathryn watched my 3 month old Yorkie and she was so good with him. She took him on a walk, helped leash train him, and gave him a nice bath. She watched him for me when I first got him, as well, when he was just over a month old. She’s great with animals and a super sweet, awesome, and loving person.

Kathryn watched my medium breed rescue and she was amazing! She usually has bad separation anxiety and won’t eat while she’s away from home, but she ate all of her food with Kathryn, and some treats. Her Labrador retriever was also very good with my dog.

I have a fenced yard, many toys, and two sweet dogs to provide further company and play! I have a large lab and a Pomeranian. If your dog is uncomfortable with a large breed, or other animals in general, I can easily make sure they are separated with no problems.

Information Katy R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, separation anxiety, dietary issues, digestive problems, or allergies. Please, also let me know what your dog likes/ dislikes such as games, activities, belly rubs, etc. I want to make sure your dog is as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

I love to make sure dogs are happy, comfortable, and relaxed. I like to play games that stimulate both their brain and body. Activities I usually do are tug-of-war, fetch, hide-and-seek (with treats), and I also love to teach tricks.
