I am very diligent about keeping the animals safe; not only while they are outside but while they are in the home as well. While on walks I have worked with different kinds of reactive dogs and know techniques and strategies that will help keep all parties safe and secure. I also have experience in giving pets medication and making sure they don'e eat anything that could hurt them.

Information Katelyn C. would like to know about your pet

The most important information for me as a dog walker is whether or not your dog is friendly to people and other animals. Lots of times there will be children or other dogs that want to come say hi, and I don't want to put anyone in an uncomfortable position. Also, if they have a set route they normal go on for their walks, or if they're a little more adventurous.

A typical day

I love starting the day with a walk! It helps get everyone ready for the day, and then by the time we’re back home the dogs are normally ready to eat! I love playing with them inside, and giving them lots of cuddles and belly rubs. Afternoon walks are a great way to get some energy out, and to get some sun. Dog parks are great as long as the dog gets along with other animals and the pet parents are comfortable with it.

Im an animal lover!

Pet care experience

Ive been pet sitting since I was around 12 years old, and have had a dog ever since I was a kid. I love taking care of animals and giving them as much love and attention as possible. Ive taken care of small Yorkies to large Rottweilers and everything in between. I have also been professionally walking dogs for the last 5 years.

Alex was a communicative, responsible and caring sitter. Alex house sit for our large dog (Greyhound) for a week. They followed all of our dog routines to a tee and left the house tidy as well. Daily, we received photos as well as text updates. We will definitely reach out to Alex again!

Katelyn is a caring and dependable person who genuinely cares about animals. I totally trust her to take care of my pets. Katelyn will be an asset to Rover.

They are a very loving person towards animals and treats all with a lot of care. They have a wide range of experience handling pets and extensive knowledge in all things customer service related. I highly recommend them as a pet caregiver and believe that they will not disappoint!

Katelyn is amazing! They have been the dog walker for my dog Ellie and also stayed at my apartment with Ellie overnight when we travel many times. Ellie absolutely loves Katelyn (and she is a picky dog that doesn't like everyone). We completely trust Katelyn with Ellie since they take care of her so well and are extremely responsible and trustworthy. I know Ellie is in good hands with Katelyn...and honestly would not leave Ellie with anyone else :)
