Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m Katie, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 13 years. I grew up surrounded by pups of all kinds—big, small, young, senior, purebred, and rescue—so understanding their unique personalities and needs comes naturally to me. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or helping with medication and routines, I treat every dog like family. I’m here to give your pet the same love, patience, and care I’ve given mine my whole life!

Reviews
I can’t recommend Katie enough for anyone needing a reliable and loving dog sitter! She’s been absolutely amazing with my dog Ashe, who’s a Great Pyrenees mix. She’s not always the easiest to handle. Katie is incredibly patient, calm, and understanding, which makes a huge difference with a dog like Ashe who can be a little stubborn at times. Ashe warmed up to her so quickly, and I could tell she felt totally comfortable and safe in Katie’s care. Katie’s friendly, gentle demeanor just puts animals at ease, and she genuinely treats them like her own. It’s such a relief knowing Ashe is in great hands whenever she’s with her. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and totally in tune with your fur baby, Katie is it!
About Katelyn M.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In My Home: I live in a pet-friendly apartment in a quiet neighborhood that’s great for walks. While my backyard isn’t fenced, I have a secure in-ground leash for safe outdoor time, and there’s also an open field nearby where pets can play using a 15ft leash if they enjoy more space. Inside, your pet will feel right at home with my super friendly dog and two curious (but respectful) kitties. I provide a cozy, supervised environment full of love, playtime, and attention based on your pet’s needs and personality. In Client Homes: I stick to your pet’s normal routine to keep things comfortable and consistent. I offer feeding, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and plenty of affection. I always treat your pet—and your home—with the same care and respect I give my own.

A typical day
When I watch dogs, I keep them happy and active with walks around my pet-friendly neighborhood, playtime in a nearby field using a 15ft leash, and fun indoor games like tug-of-war and enrichment toys. I always match the activity to their energy level and personality to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved.
