About: Leave your pets and home in loving care with me and enjoy your time away worry free! Hi I'm Tatiana and I love animals! I promise to treat your fur family like they are my very own and pamper them with love while you're away. My house sitting rates are for overnights only. That covers a 12 hour period. If you need 24 hours of care let me know and I will share those rates. ✅ I have no problem administering medications or caring for special needs animals, if needed. ✅ I have a great system for following pet routines, helping to keep young ones on track with their training and all pets comfortable in the routines they are used to. ✅ Dogs get special attention with me! If they are able, I will usually take them outdoors for some fresh air and fun! ✅ A free bonus your pets will receive in my care is a massage!! I am a Massage Therapist and one of the courses I chose while in school was Dog, Cat and Horse Massage. It was important for me to understand pain relief for my animal friends as well as my human clients. ✅ I have cared for animals for my entire life. As a child, I helped breed and raise parrots, cockatiels & finches. My personal childhood pet pack included a duck, a dog and a cat who were best friends. Followed by multiple cats, a turtle, a snake, three rats, two hamsters, three rabbits and three aquariums throughout my life. ✅ My Step-Mother rehabilitated injured wildlife. It became part of my passion as well, helping a baby squirrel, baby opossum, many baby or injured birds and a raven all make it back to the wild before the age of eighteen. I started pet sitting not long after that at the age of 22. ✅ I have managed properties and estates throughout my years, as it was something I was instantly great at. Being very organized and clean, a genuinely independent person who can easily communicate with contractors, problem solve easily for my clients when they aren't available, and communicate with great efficiency and clarity with my clients when needed, I have found that my clients are very happy with my care of their property while they are on vacation or away for a season. 💖 I have flexibility in my schedule making it fairly easy to work with me when I am available. My priority is making sure you and your animal family are happy. I do not care for pets in my home. I can and will come to you when my services are hired. I mainly service the Mauna Lani, Waimea & Waikoloa areas!

Waikoloa pet parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot recommend Kathy enough! She is phenomenal. I have three senior herding dogs with very distinct personalities, and it’s not easy finding someone who can connect with them all. Through each interaction from the coordination process to the first official visit, Kathy has been warm, accommodating, and patient with me and each of my pups. She takes the time to understand their needs, medical issues, quirks, and routines, and made sure they felt comfortable and loved in my absence. It’s clear to me that she has a deep understanding of dogs, and knows exactly how to handle each of them with care and respect. What really stood out was how quickly my squad warmed up to her, which is no easy feat! Throughout the time she was with them, she kept me updated with thoughtful photos and messages, which gave me such peace of mind. I am so grateful for her and the love and attention she gave my dogs. She’s truly a professional, and I will continue to trust her with my pets anytime. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, caring, and has a genuine love for animals, Kathy is the one to call!
