Pet care experience
I have been taking care of animals since I was 12 years old, and have plenty of experience with varieties of personalities, sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I love animals just like you, and I have always grown up with a pet. I currently have a cat, Ellie, who is 3 years old and a Basset Hound, Blue, who is 7 years old. I am always eager to help and am here to help make life a little easier for you and your fur friend!
Reviews
Thanks for All your Efforts
Katy did a wonderful job with my 2 babies. I was worried how they would react to someone new but she quickly earned their trust. She provided very thorough updates about the visits along with sweet photos.
Katy was great. She took great care of my cats while I was away. Would 100% book her again
Katy canceled 10 min before set time to let my dog out saying she had a cold. . I was out of town and had to scramble for someone to let my dog out. Very disappointed isn’t reliable. I booked her a week in advance.

Safety, trust & environment
I am not currently offering any in home services due to the small size of my duplex home. Although, I am offering at home visits during the day as well as overnight stays, both at clients homes. I will provide extra supplies as well as pick up supplies per my clients pets needs to ensure quality care for their pets. Any extra information about me or anything the client wants to know more is always welcomed!
Information Katy S. would like to know about your pet
It would be important for me to know information about the dog’s temperament as well as energy level. Safety is my priority, and being able to know these things ahead of time will make the visit for your dog and I much safer. I would ideally want to watch a dog that is friendly with strangers as well as potty trained. I love to match the dogs energy and am willing to work with high energy dogs. Also, I do not have experience with special needs animals, so I would not feel comfortable taking care of a special needs animal at this time.
A typical day
I want to make sure I can stimulate your pets both physically and mentally to ensure quality play time. For dogs, I would love to get them outside and moving around by walks, playing with toys, playing fetch, etc. Incorporating as much outdoor time as possible. Also, being able to play with stimulating toys as well as providing snuggles is important as well to me. For cats, I would want to utilize engaging activities such as lasers, strings, and other interactive toys to provide stimulating fun and ensure independent play time. Being able to respect the cats boundaries is important, and being able to even out play time as well as independent personal time is important to show that I am allowing the cat to trust me.

Katy can watch in your home
Availability
I am currently going to school for my Graduate Degree at University of St. Francis. All my classes are online at night, so I will be able to have time set aside for working with your fur babies. We all have personal lives, but for me, I am very flexible with appointment dates and times and am happy to accommodate.
