Safety, trust & environment

It’s always important to me to make sure you (the pet parent!) and your pet are comfortable with me in your home and responsible for your pet. I always prefer to meet before any booking is confirmed to make sure we are a compatible match and everything is smooth sailing.

Information Katelyn H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs or requirements for your pets. I have no problem learning or adapting to your pets needs, but I would like to be prepared or do some research if it is an unfamiliar topic. I always appreciate knowing ahead of time if your pet is reactive or pulls on a leash so I can come prepared!

A typical day

I am open to walking your pup where they are most comfortable! If they aren’t the most confident on a leash we can play fetch in the backyard or an open enclosed space! If you are working on behavioral management or learning new tricks I am open to working with you and your pup on that as well.

Pets

I love all animals!

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m Katelyn and I LOVE working with animals and meeting new furry faces. I have 4 cats and a dog myself, as well as a turtle and 6 hamsters that I independently rescue, foster, and advocate for to give them healthy, happy lives. The past two years working with cats and dogs through Rover has given me incredible opportunities to learn and care for different temperaments, personalities, and special needs in all types of animals - including high energy dog breeds, senior pups with special needs, young kittens, elderly or disabled cats, reactive dogs, small mammals such as bunnies and guinea pigs, and a plethora of other furry friends! I am happy to work with you to accommodate your pets needs the best way I can! *I ask that you kindly do not book me if your pet has had fleas in the last 8 weeks!*

We always love her ability to stop by and let the dogs out for a break and stretch on long days. Thank you again.

Katelyn was communicative and friendly, my indoor-only cat was still indoors and healthy, and my house clean, when I returned home from a work trip. Thanks, Katelyn!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
