Tail Wagging Fun!

Pet care experience

As a devoted pet enthusiast with years of experience, I specialize in providing exceptional care tailored to your furry friend's needs. What sets me apart is my dedication to fostering a nurturing environment filled with love and positive reinforcement. From training puppies to caring for senior dogs, I draw from a wealth of hands-on experience, including my own childhood dog and all my grandparents' beloved companions. Whether it's teaching basic commands like sit, roll over, and stay or providing specialized senior care, I invest ample time and research into ensuring every pet receives top-notch attention and affection. With me, your pet isn't just in good hands; they're in loving, skilled ones.

Katie was the best with me and my wife’s dogs! She followed all instructions we left for her. We couldn’t be happier with the service she provided! She is very friendly, sweet and great with dogs!

Kate is a very dependable pet caregiver. My dogs look forward to her visits. She treats them as her own and goes above and beyond to ensure that they have everything they need. I would highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

In both my own home and my clients' homes, I pride myself on creating a warm, nurturing environment where pets feel not just cared for, but cherished. With patience as my guiding virtue, I approach each furry friend with understanding and attentiveness, recognizing and respecting their unique personalities and needs. Whether it's administering medication, adhering to dietary restrictions, or simply providing companionship, I am meticulous in ensuring every aspect of their well-being is attended to with the utmost care and consideration. During walks, I transform ordinary strolls into exciting adventures, allowing pets to explore and exercise while under my watchful eye. In their own home environment, I seamlessly adapt to their routines, providing a sense of comfort and familiarity that eases any potential stress or anxiety. My dedication to fostering a bond built on trust and affection means that pets not only thrive under my care but eagerly anticipate our time together, knowing they are in the hands of someone who values their happiness above all else.

Information Kate M. would like to know about your pet

Let's plan activities that cater to their interests and energy levels. 4. "Open Communication": I believe in keeping the lines of communication open and transparent.

Together, we'll create a comfortable and enjoyable experience that strengthens our bond with your beloved companion.

A typical day

When you entrust your beloved furry friend to my care, rest assured they'll receive the utmost attention and care tailored to their individual needs. For your dog, our day will kick off with a morning walk around your neighborhood, or if you prefer, we can head to one of my favorite parks in Knoxville where they can stretch their legs, sniff around, and socialize with other friendly pups. Back home, I'll ensure they have fresh water and a nutritious meal based on your feeding instructions. After some downtime for digestion, it's playtime! Whether it's a game of fetch in the backyard or some interactive toys indoors, we'll engage in activities that keep them mentally stimulated and physically active. For cats, I'll spend quality time engaging in interactive play sessions with their favorite toys, ensuring they get the mental and physical stimulation they need. If they enjoy bird watching, I'll set up a cozy spot by the window for them to enjoy the view. Throughout the day, I'll adhere to any special requests you have, whether it's administering medication, adhering to dietary restrictions, or maintaining their grooming routine.
