Kate specializes in working with dogs that have anxiety

About Kate

I would like to share a little bit of my history with you. I always wanted a dog, my entire life, and finally after a lot of contemplation, I adopted my dog “Whisky” who is the light of my life. It was instant love at first sight. Whisky coming into my life changed EVERYTHING!
The relationship I’ve built with Whisky fuelled my love for these furry companions, and ignited a strong passion for working with dogs. I soon discovered that I had a vocation towards dogs and the animal world. This decision led to my educational direction to receive a certification in dog grooming and immersed myself in learning everything I could about pets, in particular dogs. I am continuously learning about dog care, dog behaviors and am ultimately seeking certification as an expert dog trainer.
My specialty is dogs with anxiety. I have grown to know and understand dogs who need extra loving care and tenderness to slowly guide them out of their fears. I have a keen sense of understanding how dogs communicate, both verbally and non-verbally. I know how to prevent a situation so that it does not escalate. It feeds my soul to surround myself with humans’ best friend.
Rest assured, I am highly responsible and look after all my furry clients as though they were my very own. Each fur-baby brings joy into my life in diverse ways, because just like people, each dog has its own special personality. When you bring me your pet, I spend the entire time actively taking part in their day.
I invite you to contact me so I can have the pleasure of meeting you and your special fur-baby.
Let us talk about how I can help you with my loving pet services.

Testimonials

Kathryn pours so much love, patience and care when she grooms my Churro. Churro is always treated like family and for Kathryn it's not just about getting the job done. It’s about doing it right by Churro! We can tell she truly has a passion for what she does, and it shows in the way she takes her time to make Churro feel comfortable and safe while she grooms him. We always receive a personalized, & heartfelt experience with lots of healthy treats. I highly recommend her to all my friends.

Kathyrn has our total trust in looking after our fur baby Coco! She is patient with all the dogs she comes across and is particularly passionate about her work! Our dog has been in her care since 10 months old and Coco is now 4! When Coco sees Kathyrn, it is like seeing her second mom too - greeting her with tons of licks and kisses! Now that’s an endorsement from the dog directly! Woof woof!
Pamela

Our rescue dog Sadie was quite nervous, especially with new people. Kate was very patient and persistent, and Whisky was the perfect pal, helping Sadie know it was okay to trust Kate. As soon as Sadie warmed up to Kate she absolutely loved her and would get SO excited when Kate came to get her for a walk. Kate's passion for animals is evident in the love and care she provides for all the animals that come her way, we highly recommend her for all of your furry friend's needs!

"We got our fur baby (Argo) when he was 3 months old and he started going to Kate’s daycare around 6 months of age. We trust her whole heartedly. She is so caring and proactive and communicates with us very well. Our puppy enjoys going to her daycare so much that he pulls us over there on a regularly basis. He comes home a happy exhausted puppy. Kate has helped with wonderful advice and has a lot of knowledge about dogs. I would recommend her to anyone. “
Elodie

Kathryn has been amazing for our little Maltese dog for daycare, grooming and even overnight boarding when we went on vacation. It's clear that she loves dogs and sets clear limits. She prioritizes their well-being, she's very easy to communicate with, and she's generous with her time and advice. We are thrilled to be able to work with someone that we know who loves our dog as much as we do.
Naomi and Scott

"We have been so happy and impressed with Kate's dog daycare and pet sitting. Rufus has been with Kate since he was 5 months old. She's been integral in encouraging him to come out of his shell and building his confidence in communicating with other dogs. We trust her completely for Rufus' needs."
Agnes

"They way Kate loves all dogs is second to none. She will treat your dog as if it was her own - I completely trust her with my Scandi. It's rare to find such a caring, reliable and trustworthy care taker such as Kate. I highly recommend her!! Liv"
Liv

Kathryn has provided a loving environment for our miniature Schnoodle, Sheyla for over 4 years. Kathryn has been very professional in her service, ensuring that Sheyla gets the care she needs including exercise/play, grooming, health surveillance and security, among others. As Sheyla is small and a little nervous, Kathryn has made sure that she feels safe with the other dogs in her care. Kathryn also provides a grooming service and has done a great job! When Sheyla was feeling sick, Kathryn contacted us immediately and provided all the details and important advice - turns out it was not serious.
Julien and Isabel

We can't say enough great things about Kate and her skills as a caregiver for our fur Baby! From the first encounter with her, she instantly had a connection with our Biscuit, which only strengthened as she cared for him time after time. One of her many strengths is her kind and respectful approach to interaction with our pup. At one point, we had an unexpected need for her help, and she was able to provide above and beyond what we expected. She's talented, knowledgeable, and so caring and we highly highly recommend her.
