“I couldn’t be happier with Katherine’s service! I highly recommend her to other dog owners. I have a newly adopted dog who is a rescue and he is very nervous in new surroundings. Katherine came to our house for a meet and greet before hand which allowed my dog to get to know her. Katherine was patient, accommodating, and very knowledgeable of animal behavior and training techniques. She sent me pictures throughout the day so that I had peace of mind that my dog was being well taken care of while I had to work. Thank you Katherine!”
About: I was born into a pet-loving home and began helping with pet care as early as age six — feeding, walking, and helping with training our family dogs. Since then, I’ve spent over three decades caring for dogs and other animals, both personally and professionally. My approach is intuitive, compassionate, and built on a lifetime of hands-on experience. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. As a Montecito-based business owner and endurance athlete, I spend much of my time on the trails and beaches — often with a dog by my side. My lifelong love of animals, combined with my endurance background, makes me especially well-suited for larger or high-energy breeds. I genuinely love bonding with dogs and take pride in being a calm, confident presence — a natural pack leader they can trust. I care for the dogs I walk as if they were my own — with plenty of love, attention, and respect for their individual needs. I’m known for giving dogs the exercise they truly crave, whether that’s an energizing trail walk, a beach romp, or a steady neighborhood outing. I stay fully present and engaged, making sure each walk is safe, stimulating, and tailored to the dog’s energy level and personality.
“Kelsey is awesome! Stella barked with glee as she was just parking her car!!!!! She loooooved her so much she hugged her the minute Kelsey walked in the door! Thrilled to have found Kelsey for my high energy Goldendoodle.”

Ryan M.
“Ryan is amazing with our two Weimaraners. They have tons of energy, and he’s able to handle them and actually tire them out. After a day with him, they come home happy and totally wiped. He’s a trail runner, so he takes them on long adventures to beaches, parks, Montecito trails. Places we don’t have time to get to during the week. You can tell he really enjoys working with dogs like ours that need more than just a walk around the block. If you have a high-energy breed and need someone who can keep up, Ryan’s your guy. Can’t recommend him enough.”

Haley Y.
“I truly appreciate being able to schedule Haley to feed our cat when we're out-of-town! Haley is very responsive to texts I send her, getting back to me in a timely manner regarding her availability. I've also asked her to bring in our mail, newspaper, and trash cans and she always follows through. I feel she's very organized and I trust her in our home, and taking care of our cat. A few weeks ago, our plans had changed and I had to let Haley know I didn't need her services. I felt bad that I didn't need her. But her response was very professional and it truly reflected the mature and responsible person that she is. I'd HIGHLY recommend Haley to anybody needing someone to care for their cat or dog!”
