About Kate

I'm a 34 year old animal lover! I grew up with dogs, cats and family farm animals, befriending horses, sheep, pigs and chickens. I love caring for animals and making them feel loved. Having my own cat pet-sitted, I understand the worry of leaving a beloved furbaby, and I want to make other pet owners feel at ease about theirs.

I work part time at Petbarn and through this job I have learned so much about animal nutrition, behaviour and care. I am also about to start studying Cert II in Animal Care to eventually be a vet nurse. I have also volunteered at the kennels at AAPS shelter.

I have a 13 year old tabby cat who is spoilt rotten, and I've pet-sitted for family and friends' dogs over the years. Dog breeds included 2 Japaneze Spitz, a Bernese Mountain Dog, a Golden Retriever and a Westy. I’ve also walked other dogs including Greyhounds, German Shephard, Cavoodle and an American Staffordshire Terrior.

I offer:

- 30 minutes/day dog walking or 60 minutes/day (in one chunk & priced accordingly)

- 30 minutes/day in home visits for dogs (or 2 x 30 minutes a day & priced accordingly)

- 30 minutes/day in home visits for cats (or 2 x 30 minutes a day & priced accordingly)

In home visits include:

- Feeding

- Refreshing water

- Quick litter box clean (where applicable)

- A/C check (where applicable and to be discussed)

- Pats and play with your pet!

Please reach out if you have any questions. I hope I can meet your pet!
