Veterinary Student Here to Help!
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Kate and I am a dog lover through and through! A little about me and my experience: I graduated from the University of Minnesota with an Animal Science Pre-Vet degree. While I was in school, I worked at a doggy daycare where I learned dog behavior and basic handling skills. I then moved to Portland, Oregon where I worked at another local doggy daycare as well as a being vet tech at a veterinary clinic. I later started my own dog walking business where I learned the value of client communication and satisfaction. After a couple of years, I moved back home to Minnesota where I worked at a local veterinary clinic until I was accepted into the Veterinary Medicine program at the University of Minnesota. I am now going into my 3rd year as a vet student and intend to dedicate my life to animals! I am the proud owner of a Vietnamese Potbelly Pig named Rudy, as well as two cats - Mr. Feeny and Wilson. I love animals with all my heart and would love to give your animal lots of attention while you're away! Why I love dog sitting I love being able to help when families have to be away from their fur-babies. I know it can be stressful for many owners to leave their pets at home and I strive to make the experience as seamless and stress free as possible. I also hope that my veterinary experience can give special needs pets the best care possible while their people are away. My experience administering medication By working at a veterinary clinic, I can honestly say I'm very comfortable administering all types of medication and love caring for animals that need that extra help.
Reviews
Katelyn is great with my 3 little dogs and I had zero worries!
Kate, Is a an attentive care who will go the extra Mile to accommodate a quirky pet. Grateful
Katelyn was great with our two elderly dogs while we were away for a week. The dogs have some special needs like medication, trouble making it outside, limited walk range, etc and that didn't phase her at all. She always responded promptly to messages and even washed the sheets before she left! We have used her again since then and she was great!
My pets and apartment were in great hands with Kate! Kate stayed at my place for three nights and took care of my two small dogs and one cat. She checked in to provide updates and pics and was super fast to respond to any texts/messages I sent. She's reliable, knowledgeable, and made me feel very comfortable leaving my babies in her care.
