Pet care experience

Life long pet owner and lover

I've owned animals all my life. I currently own one outdoor cat and 4 horses. I recently lost my dog of 13 years to cushings disease. I currently work part time at a horse boarding facility and previously worked for several years as a kennel techician. Traveling for a week every year with my family, I know it's hard to find good quality care for my pets. I'd love to be able to provide that care to the pets of other families.

100% recommend Kathleen!! She treats your pet like her own. Very respectful of our home. Took our dog on a walk every night & fed our fish. It’s hard for us to take a vaca & leave our baby at home, Kathleen made the process easy.

Kathy is awesome! Always keeps me updated on how Domino is doing and sends pics🙂. I was a little nervous about how Domino would do with fireworks over the 4th of July. Kathy was caring and able to keep him calm during the evening 🤗

We were very pleased with the care given to our two dogs. We received daily updates with pictures. One of our dogs needs daily allergy medication and that was no problem as well.

Schedule

I work part time at a horse boarding facility 4 days a week (Thursday - Sunday). I work 2 shifts each day for 3- 4 hours each and have a 2-3 hour break between my shifts. So, I'm basically home every day.

Pets

A typical day

It depends on the pet and what they like or want to do. Every animal has a different personality so it could range from sitting together quietly to playing tug of war with a rope.

I don’t have a preference. I used to work at a veterinarian hospital taking care of more than 50 cats and Dogs everyday. I’ve had experience with all kinds of animals, even the difficult ones. I’m usually pretty good at getting the handle with cares to like me. Im big on respecting space and boundaries with animals.
