Kate took excellent care of our bunny and dog--giving them lots of attention and giving us peace of mind. We got pictures and updates--allowing us to know that our furry babies were happy and well cared for!!

Kate is an animal lover to the core. She's a Marine Biology major who has been caring for animals since she was a child. She helped care for her family dog, took care of neighbors' cats and dogs, and raised her own bunny. She even rescued a wild baby bird and learned how to care for it until it was healthy enough to fly away and thrive on its own. Kate worked at an aquarium in high school and was responsible for feeding dozens of animals and maintaining their tanks and living spaces. She continues to do that in college, at a local Audubon, and as an intern at the New England Aquarium. She has proven herself reliable and a hard worker time and again, and her love of animals is undeniable.

Kate took care of my dog for a few days while I was on vacation and she was amazing! She sent updates and photos every day and made sure my dog was well cared for. My dog is usually very anxious when I leave, but she is very comfortable with Kate!
