Can’t wait to meet your loves!
Pet care experience
I am a doggy mom and human mom, as well as a babysitter for over 10 years; ranging in breeds from boxers to labs, terriers to bulldogs. I recently left my job as a professional dog trainer, in hopes to start my own business. With an 12 year old that LOVES dogs as much as I do (if not more than I do lol), we will always have a home and heart for dogs. I am extremely active and looking to keep active while helping others with their kiddo’s needs. Whatever your needs are, just ask and I’ll try and accommodate them! I wouldn’t bring my kiddo on a walk- but if you’re looking for your pup to get some interaction with others, I can with a simple request. I will only take ONE family at a time. Thanks in advance!
Reviews
Katie is a second mom to my dog, Eddie. She is a patient, loving, and dedicated trainer. When I leave Eddie with her, I know he is living his best life!
Kate was recommended to me by someone I work with. I’m still in college, and when I’m working full time and going to school full time, some days I’m late getting back home or I don’t have much time in between work and school to even stop home. Kate is super flexible and I could just text her when I needed her. I have two dogs; a rottie and a pit mix— neither of them being an issue for her. A lot of services tend to shy away from the breeds I have (which is a whole other level of ridiculousness), but Kate welcomed them with open arms. She’s walked them, fed them, and even stayed a few hours in my home to keep them company, because I knew it was going to be a hard day for myself. I couldn’t be happier with everything she’s done for me and my family!
Katie was recommended to me through a friend; I was going on vacation for 2 weeks, and needed someone to watch my boxer for me. We started out speaking through text, where I was able to chat with her and get a feel of who I’d be allowing into my home, or possibly allowing to take my dog to their home, for extended periods of time. Katie was polite, patient, and responded to all of my concerns. She came over 3-4 times prior to watching Ralley, to get a feel for his personality and so they had the chance to become acquainted to one another. The trip was amazing- and she sent me photos and updates of my buddy. If she had any concerns or questions, she didn’t hesitate to ask while I was away, which was extremely comforting. Ralley has a strict diet due to some food allergies, and Katie followed them precisely with no issues. Katie had no issues with my walk requests either, ultimately walking him 3-4 times a day while I was gone. When I go away for the weekend, or for work, or whatever the case may be, I still text or call Katie to this day to see if she can watch my kiddo. I would recommend Katie to anyone.
Katie and I met at the dog park. Her playful nature with her pup is what made me initially most comfortable around her, and allowing our dogs to play together. What started initially as play dates, turned into her walking my baby on the weekends when I had to work, or go away for work— and eventually pet sitting for me for extended periods of time when I had to extensively travel. She had no issues sending photos, videos, day to day texts and video calls as I wanted to needed— and sometimes just to let me know all was well. Katie is beyond reliable and trustworthy— I still use her from time to time even now, even though it’s less needed with the new job I took on.

Information Kate S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special requirements that I should be aware of. If they were a rescue or from a breeder, dog or human reactive, what their story is, etc.
A typical day
Anywhere from dog parks to trails; parks with water and streams (if you’re okay with your doggy going for a swim)- I’ve run enough of them to see what would be doggy friendly.
