About Kate

Hello! I'm a 3rd year veterinary student currently enrolled in UCD. I come from California, and have a bachelor's degree in Animal Science. I am fluent in both English and Japanese. I have my 14 year old Bichon who came with me from California as well :) I love animals of all kinds, and love to challenge myself.

Please let me help you and your pets out so you can have peace of mind while you are away! I have experience working with a wide variety of animals in veterinary hospitals, farms, shelters, and laboratories. I have also owned a bunny and few hamsters before, and welcomed many foster kittens into my home!

I would like to offer dog walking, daytime boarding, house visiting, and overnight house sitting. If requested ahead of time, I can also do basic grooming for your pooch for an additional fee. Though I am comfortable with overnight house sitting, but please be aware that I will be bringing my dog over as well.

If this is not suitable for you or your pets' needs, please contact me to see if we can work anything out! :)

Kate has been a great sitter for our 2 cats on many, many occasions over the last year and we couldn’t recommend her more to anyone looking for an ultra-reliable and caring sitter. She always sent us videos and pictures while we were gone and was always more than responsive when communicating with her. Absolute 5 star!

We couldn't be happier & more importantly our 10.5 Kg Maine Coon Cat - Zuri - couldn't be happier with the care he received from Kate. She is 5 stars all the way! Thank you, thank you, thank you Kate...
