About The Owner

Kat has been surrounded by animals her entire life and has a natural talent for connecting with even the shyest pets, earning her the nickname "Animal Whisperer." Her ability to understand and interpret animal body language allows her to provide exceptional care and respect for every pet she meets.

In 2013, Kat founded Kat and Dogs Ohio and has since become the only Fear Free Certified Pet Sitter in Willoughby, Ohio. She specializes in professional cat sitting and dog walking, particularly for pets with unique needs. 

When she's not caring for clients' pets, Kat enjoys hiking, spending time with family, and supporting local small businesses. She and her husband share their home in Willoughby, Ohio, with their two beloved cats, Carly and Archie.
