Pet care experience

Safe, Loving, and Fun Care

I treat every dog like they’re my own—whether they’re a high-energy puppy or a slow-moving senior. What sets me apart is my background in exercise science and my active lifestyle, which means your pup will get not only love and attention, but also safe, structured walks and playtime tailored to their needs. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. I also have experience with basic obedience training, leash manners, and caring for older dogs who need a gentler touch and a slower pace. Whether it's snuggles, fetch, or a calming walk, I adjust to what makes your dog happiest.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs so I can provide personalized care. I keep a close eye on their behavior, make sure they’re always in a secure environment (like using leashes, gates, or crates when needed), and follow all instructions provided—whether it's feeding, medications, or bedtime routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of love, attention, and a calm environment to help them feel safe and at ease while you're away.

Dog Walking • Mar 01, 2026

Katelyn is amazing. My dog, Bruno adores her. She is a first-class dog walker and pup whisperer.

Katelyn is one of the quickest calls I’ll make if I need someone to watch my cats. I never have to worry if she’s sitting for me because I know she will care for my girls the way I would. There are few people I trust to watch my babies and Katelyn will ALWAYS be one of them. She’ll follow any directions left to a T and loves to take the time to play while she’s with them too.

Katelyn is nothing short of amazing! Her love for animals clearly shows. Finding an animal lover that truly cares and is trustworthy is hard to find. I recommend Katelyn if you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your fur babies when you are unavailable.

Since my work hours vary, I keep my Rover calendar up to date and can accommodate bookings whenever I’m not working. I’m happy to work with your schedule and will always make sure your pup gets the time and attention they deserve!
