About Kate

My whole life I have always loved animals, living in the city growing up I never had much of a chance to own and spend time with a lot of animals. I started my pet jouney by having a dog of my own who I love and care for very much. As time went on I adopted 3 bunnies over 3 years and loved every minute of being their pet mom. I later became in love with horses and livestock, working for 4 years in the horse indusry has just made me want to own one even more. I as well was a groomer for dogs and cats that opened my eyes to many different breeds and needs of different animals and their personalities. I have housesat many times for families with animals. Starting small with 1-2 dogs and making my way up to cats,dogs,horses,bunnies,ect. When I moved from Canada to New Zealand I couldn't stop working with or seeing animals so I got a job working with horses. However there is still something missing...more animals! I am missing my animals back home very much and want to spend as much time as possible as I can with other family pets. From fresh puppies who need training to problem animals that need someone safe to trust, I am your girl! I am a very active and motivated person, schedules and lists are something I live by. I have worked with sick dogs and horses that need a strict diet and need medications administered, so if your animals need someone to keep them healthy I am more than capable. Vaccinations are not nessasary but making sure they are safe and clean is a must. Trusting someone with your pet can be scary but I am always sure to send pictures and updates as the time goes on, resting your mind at ease so when you are away from your pets you can know they are safe and loved.

Kate was a great pet sitter. She sent lots of photos of our pets enjoying their weekend with her.

Kate was great at communicating and sent us regular updates about Monty whilst we were away. He was happy and well looked after. We would definitely book her again :)
