Pet care experience

Experienced Animal Caretaker

I’ve professionally been caring and training animals for six years now! I started my career at the shelter, expanding my knowledge and interests in the Animal Behavior world. I became a Professional Certified Dog and Cat Trainer, through Animal Behavior College, and provided services locally and through Petsuites Novi. On top of that, it is just my pure passion to work and be with animals! There isn’t anything I could be more thankful for! I’m currently working full-time as an Accounts Receivable Coordinator, and have open availability Monday-Friday after 4pm, Weekends, and Holidays. I am a very active outdoors person! I’d love to take your pet on some long walks/hikes, if they’re comfortable (harness and leash only)! Walking is meant for sniffing and mental stimulation, bringing dogs to a variety of areas to sniff and be immersed in a natural setting is some of the best enrichment they can get! I’d love to take your pup to their local hiking trails to get their sniff on, or just around your neighborhood! Having experience working as a Professional Dog and Cat Trainer, and previous Behavior Technician, has given me a very prime understanding of the animal mind and what it needs. Not only is physical stimulation important, but mental stimulation is just as important. I’ll be able to not only keep your pet busy outside, we will also keep their mind busy (as they love nothing more!). This includes enrichment, whether it be chew bones or long sniffing walks, engaging playtimes, or doing some training just for fun! If your pet is more of a coach potato and enjoys cuddles more then festivities, then that is very much a can do as well! ❤️🐶🐱 Looking for a small animal or reptile sitter? I also offer services for these friends too! Having a bearded dragon and tarantula of my own, I have fallen in love with all species! I have experience caring for and handling all types or reptiles and small animals (rabbits/Guinea pigs/hamsters/birds). Please message me for more information/pricing! 🦎❤️

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for clients pets as they are my own! I currently own two cats, and meet all their requirements of daily needs. This includes all the stimulation they need as animals on a daily basis, and constant love and positive reinforcement they deserve. I will make sure all of your pets needs are met while I visit, and always treat them with the most love and respect. When working with animals for so long, you learn they are all unique, and have their own personalities, just like us! I will treat your pet accordingly to their temperament and personality, and respect their boundaries! Our furry friends love a good routine, and I’d happily become a part of theirs!

Katelyn did a great job with my two cats, providing thorough and professional updates each visit. I felt at ease leaving my cats in her care and even my very cautious cat warmed up to her quickly. I highly recommend Katelyn's services!

It's my second time booking Katelyn to take care of my 2 cats. She's very reliable and I'm less worried while I'm away because I know they're in good hands. I definitely recommend her. Thank you so much Katelyn 🤎🖤

It is very important to me to meet the dog/cat prior (to ensure our friendship and so I’m not a stranger coming into your home for the first time!). I’d love to set up a meet and greet, and discuss the pets needs and their behavioral habits, as well as any medical issues that need to be made aware of.
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.
