I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. This works especially well for live-in pet care, as I’m able to maintain your pet’s routine, provide companionship, and ensure they’re not left alone for long periods. I can easily structure my day around feeding times, walks, play, and any specific care needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their own home with a focus on consistency, safety, and minimizing disruption to their routine. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and walks to any specific behaviours or medical needs. I’ve also administered medication when required. I’m very mindful of home security, keeping spaces clean, and ensuring pets are always safe and comfortable in their environment.

Information Katelyn B. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know about your pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs — including feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medical needs, or behavioural quirks. It’s also helpful to know what they enjoy (and what they don’t!) so I can tailor my care to them and make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.

A typical day

A typical day is centred around your pet’s routine. For dogs, this includes walks, playtime, and regular check-ins throughout the day. For cats, I balance play, stimulation, and companionship with respecting their independence. I enjoy spending quality time with pets — whether that’s cuddling, interactive play, or simply being a calm presence so they feel relaxed and secure.

Experienced multi-pet sitter

Pet care experience

I cared for my own cat for 18 wonderful years, which gave me a deep understanding of how pets change over time and what they need at different stages. I’ve also pet sat for many friends, including multi-pet households — one family I regularly support has three dogs and a cat — so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines. What sets me apart is my ability to read and adapt to each pet’s unique temperament. I love spending time with affectionate, social pets, but I’m equally mindful of giving space to those who are more independent or need time to warm up. I always let the pet set the pace. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and specific care needs, including administering medication when required. My goal is to create a calm, low-stress environment so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

We found Katelyn just before a last-minute trip and consider ourselves to be so fortunate to make such a find. Our four pets can be a handful and housesitting as well! She was amazing - charming, smart, obviously pet-loving, efficient and reassuring. We are wanting to book her for the long term so we might be working against that by giving her such a great recommendation. Hmmm. Janet and James

Katelyn has been a proud pet-parent for many years and has a special affinity for cats. Her sweet and caring manner seems to attract and calm even the most shy and wary felines. Katelyn is responsible, dependable and respectful of her surroundings and of others. She keeps her environment clean and tidy and would make a wonderful pet sitter.
