“Kate is the BEST! Idefix loved every second of hanging out and playing in the yard! I’m so glad she is flexible to come by for regular visits and playtime at our house! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Thank you, Kate!”

About: I have a long history caring for animals! I’ve worked with and cared for animals since I was six years old. I began training horses and dogs when I was eleven, and have continued to ever since. I have 2 dogs, a horse and a cat of my own. I’ve owned animals my whole life, never having the house without at least 3 dogs or cats at a time. I run and walk frequently and am happy to bring your pet along, but I’m also happy to stay in with a cat! I’ve cared for family and friend pets, and I’m able to provide all typical pet care and medication administration. I’m currently home from college, so I’m free almost any time! I’m happy to work with you and come up with a schedule that meets you and your pets needs. I’m incredibly mindful of your animals disposition, and any specifications you may have concerning the need of your pet! I’m able to drive to a clients home for sitting.
About: I'm used to big dogs, even slightly aggressive or unruly dogs, well-behaved as well as meek dogs. They all need exercise! 20 years ago I trained over the winter season with an accomplished sled dog team and completed a 30-mile sled dog race. I also have experience raising our Australian Cattle Dog from 9 weeks. ACDs are little velociraptors, but we got through it and she's now a well-behaved adult. I currently have a fairly open schedule. I work in dog walking around my own regular dog walking, running, going to the gym and home tasks and chores. Monday - Saturday are my available days, my Sundays are mostly full. I'll come to your home and walk your dog in your neighborhood if you prefer, but my favorite activity is walking dogs on local trails in the woods and hills. We'll talk about what your dog is up for, and if you're unsure, we can start with easy hikes. For drop-in visits I'll ask you about your dog and what your expectations are and any special needs or instructions, and I'll take it from there.

“I was really worried about leaving my dog at home while I went on a business trip. Emily filled in last minute and served as a wonderful caretaker for my dog (which is a border collie). Emily made me feel so comfortable during this process. She was just wonderful with my dog. So reliable. So kind and caring. Highly recommended.”

About: i grew up with many different pets (horses, chickens, hedgehogs, fish, cats, and dogs!), but i’ve recently moved away from them… HOWEVER i would love to help you take care of your furry friends!! i do online school, and am home for most of the day. i usually leave for around 2-3 hours a day, but not everyday. my schedule is very flexible, so taking care of a pet would fit easily into my day! i love being outside and going on walks, so bringing your pet would be perfect! i have a flexible schedule, so i am willing to work with whatever your pet needs!
About: I am a well experienced dog owner, having had at least one dog since I was 8. I currently have two dogs, Moose and Banyan. They get along well with other dogs and people. I love dogs, cats, and animals of any kind. I am highly respectful and dependable, with references I can provide if desired. I have reliable transportation and a private property that I own. There is no fence, however, there are six acres. If you want to get pictures and check ins, even videos I’m your pet sitter! If you want minimal updates and to not worry about a thing, I’m also your pet sitter! I also have experience providing medications and can keep continuity with your training preferences. Thank you! I work from home most days. Other days I am flexible to come home for restroom breaks or bring them along. When I work from home I am near the animals. A client’s pet will be treated like my own. I have half the house where pets are allowed and if needed I can separate animals into different areas of the house.
