“From the first time we met Katie we knew our pups were in good hands! She’s very knowledgeable about pets and we were confident she would do a great job Katie was punctual for all her visits and went above and beyond what was asked of her. Couldn’t be happier with her service”


“Five stars isn’t enough! Tyler has been absolutely amazing with my dogs, Cuper and Dash. He walks them three times a week for 30 minutes, and every time they see him, their tails go wild with excitement. It’s clear he genuinely cares for them — he’s reliable, kind, and has built such a great bond with both of my pups. I have total peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. Tyler is truly a gem, and I can’t recommend him enough!”

About: I have had experience taking care of animals since I was 9 years old, both big and small. I am well versed in taking care of senior pups. My original fur baby, Charley, had many medical problems within his 16 years of life that I helped him through, such as blindness, deafness, dementia, renal failure, and chronic pancreatitis. I am able to medicate animals through pills, drops, liquid syringes, and shots. I am no stranger to messes and all will be cleaned up well. I love playing with animals and getting to know each of their individual personalities! As a college student, pet sitting and walking is a great way to spend time between classes. I get my exercise in with the dogs. I get to be fulfilled by taking care of my fluffy friends. And I get to be surrounded by the BEST form of company! Every time an animal is let outside I will be outside with them, watching. I have to ability to crate animals and break up fights between them. I am able to stay between territorial animals while they eat. If need be, I can run after an animal.

I am available at all hours to check on your pets! I will care for pets in your home by ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for them. I will be certain to be cautious of runaway pets!

“Katrina was incredible with my senior dog (Sonny) who needed a little extra care, patience, and attention. From day one, she treated him like her own, making sure he felt safe and loved. She’s punctual, professional, and communicates clearly with thoughtful updates after every visit. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and dogs love her right back. If you’re looking for someone truly elite, especially for a dog with special needs, Katrina is the one.”

Amber C.
“Amber has cared for me dogs on multiple occasions while on vacation/work trips. My dogs Mocha and Koni love her. She keeps them active and safe, so I don't have to worry about them while I am away. It's like they get a mini-vacation of their own. She is really good to send us pictures, videos, and video chat with us to ensure the dogs are okay. Both dogs are mixed breed rescues so they are medium size dogs. Mocha can be a little rowdy as we think she is probably only a year old, and Amber has no trouble with her.”
