Hi all! My name is Katie and I am a lifelong pet owner who loves dogs and cats. I'm starting my Ph. D at UT and am looking to make a little money (and have fun!) watching/playing with your sweet pets. I'm a former college distance runner and can take your dog on runs if they prefer a faster pace. I am also a cat owner who could give your cat attention and alleviate the boredom that often leads cats to be destructive. I have owned dogs of all ages and am comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and anything in-between. I'm also happy to communicate with you as much or as little as you like and can send videos/pictures throughout the day to keep you in touch with your pets. Please be specific with timeframes when you request a walk/visit! My schedule can be fluid because of meetings, so providing a general window of time is helpful for me (and useful for you if you need to find someone else!). Also, please communicate with me if your plans change and you no longer need my services. I won’t be mad and it’s just nice for me to be able to clear my schedule. 😊 PLEASE NOTE: Because I am a full-time Ph.D student, I cannot consistently cater to individuals who live more than ten miles away although I might be able to manage the occasional visit, particularly on holidays and weekends. Message me and we’ll talk!
