About: I studied to be come a vet assistant at high dessert medical college, where I also took an extern ship with task that included, helping take care of animals for boarding, injured animals, and animals before and after surgeries. I have skill with proper animal care and proper husbandry. I am currently working part time at the blvd so they won’t be alone for more then an 8hour shift and I only work one 8hr shift a week so ill be home most of the time when pets are in my care I will allow pets full access to my room and living room (I do have young siblings in my house so I would keep pets in my room if the kids are being to rough) while taking them on walks during the day and night or as needed I’ll feed them to owner preference along with 24/7 access to plenty of water I do understand I have a small apartment but I live close to a park with a dog area to take them for few hours twice a day while it is fresh outside unless otherwise specified by owner.

This was my first time using this app and also my first time leaving my cats and house in the hands of a stranger... yet I couldn't be happier about the decision I made to hire Katrina to take care of everything. She followed my checklist perfectly and even went above and beyond during her drop in visits with my 2 cats. Her daily updates and pictures made me feel certain that my girls were happy and that things back home were totally safe under control while I was away. I hope to book her again in the future, and would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs ?????

About: Growing up, I had two dogs starting at age 10, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding canine behavior and needs. I learned how to train them, manage their energy levels, and ensure they were well-socialized. Since moving out on my own at 18, I've continued my passion for pet care by having one dog and one cat. This experience has allowed me to develop skills in caring for multiple types of pets, including feeding, grooming, and providing companionship. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. I always ensure that my home is a secure environment, free from hazards, and I’m vigilant during walks to keep them safe from traffic and other dangers. I’m comfortable with daily walks, playtime, and administering any necessary medications while keeping a close eye on their well-being. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stimulating environment for your pets, ensuring they feel at home while you’re away. I currently work a full time job. However Im still available every weekend , weekday and holidays for walks , check ins and more ! I always ensure that my home is secure, checking for any potential hazards like open windows, toxic plants, or small objects they could swallow. I keep cleaning supplies and other harmful substances out of reach. When it comes to playtime, I use safe toys and supervise their play to prevent any accidents. I also make sure to provide a safe space for them to retreat to, especially if they feel stressed or overwhelmed. During walks or outdoor time, I’m very cautious about their surroundings, ensuring they are kept on a leash if necessary, and I monitor them closely at all times. I’m experienced in administering medications and keeping track of their health, ensuring they stay safe and comfortable. My goal is to provide a loving and secure environment for your pet, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away.

Sidney has been so great! Have been working long hours and was worried about my puppy being home for hours in end alone. Sidney came to meet Bunnie before we started regular daily visits, and she stayed and played with Bunnie for an hour almost daily. My neighbors told me they always saw her running around the back yard keeping her active, and she was always super sweet to my baby. She always remembered to put out the activity toys, and would even clean up the rare messes my puppy made even though I told her she didn’t need to. Sidney was super flexible and communicative, sent me lots of photos and videos, and she even took my last minute panicked requests for bookings. I highly recommend trusting your pups to her, she will take great care of them!
