About Katherine

Experience: 10 yrs

I am very passionate about animals! I have had cats, dogs, sheep, goats, rabbits, chickens all my life and for the last 6 years I have volunteered at my local animal shelter and fostered many kittens. I have 5 rescues of my own and they are just as much my children as my stepdaughters are. My dream job would be to hang out with fur-babies all day! I have dog sat and walked for a family in mansfield for almost 4 years and also cared for a cat for a few years until they moved. I have also done a few short term jobs as well. I will clean up after, feed, entertain, walk, and love your four legged family member as my own! I have great references and I would love to have the opportunity to care for your pet:)

Kate got to know our pets when she was our children's' nanny for 7 years and provided daily care. She continues to provide pet care when needed for our family. She is reliable, very knowledgeable about animals, and loves them like her own! She proactively suggested discussing arthritis medicine with our vet when our doggie started to show early signs we wouldn't have picked up on. Kate makes vet appointments and takes our animals to them when we aren't able. When our dog had surgery to remove a tumor, she voluntarily slept on the floor next to her the night she came home to monitor her overnight! She takes her on long walks, applies mushers wax when done, clips her nails, and ensures she has fresh water and lots of yummy treats. She also feeds and plays with our cat and gives her special treats as well. Extremely trustworthy and reliable, she is highly recommended!
