About Kathalyn

Experience: 13 yrs

Hi. Although my name is Kathalyn, my friends call me Kathy. I am 74 years old and have been taking care of animals for 13 years. I was a housecleaner for over 20 years before I became a full time petsitter, so I know how to clean up after myself. I have a good sense of humor and occasionally enjoy doing open mic nights. I am also an author, self-publishing my books on Amazon. The photos of many of the dogs (and cats) I take care of have made it into my books. Most of the work I do is staying overnight while my clients are away from home, but I also check on other animals while doing my over-nights. I love animals and they become my friends. I can walk your dog if it is lease trained and small to mid-sized. I am looking forward to meeting your pets.

I have hired Kathy to pet sit my dog and she is wonderful. She is very attentive. The dog is her first priority when she pet sits. She follows my requests for my dog very well. I wouldn't hire anyone else and my dog loves her.
