About Kathy
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi, I'm Kathy, I'd describe my personality as easy going, kind, responsible I'm looking for a job that basically is watching your pet at your house while you're away I started working with animals when I was 16 on a Thoroughbred horse farm. Growing up I took care of our pets and went to school to be a Vet Tech. I've worked in Florida as a vet tech for 20+ years and back home at Woodstock Animal Hospital for 15 years In my spare time, I have church family, enjoy my dog, my son family and friends. Also travel One thing you should know about me is I only pet sit in your home. I prefer smaller to medium dogs ( unless you have a fenced yard) and cats. I can treat pets with medicine and subcutaneous fluids. I do drop in or overnight visits. I work pet sitting around my regular job. My skills include caring and loving your pets unconditionally while your away, I can medicate if necessary, I can bathe, brush and clip nails if they allow me to
Most recent review
I was blessed to find Kathy at my vets office as our nurse tech and groomer, and she first stayed with our babies during our honeymoon. For many years following she was our caretaker. One and only!! She is so knowledgeable and kind, as well as incredibly trustworthy. She stayed in our home many times over the course of almost three years and was always respectful and left our house exactly as she found it. I think she still might have a key...lol. We never worried. Plus she took excellent care of our four animals. She's the absolute best you can get. We moved down south and still will only use her when going on vacation. She's a lifesaver.
