Katelyn can care for
Availability
Prior to graduating this past December, I worked part time as a pet caregiver and would walk dogs in the mornings or on work from home days. Now that I’ve graduated and am waiting for my new job to start in April, I’m able to take a little time off and be a pet caregiver full time. I have very flexible hours and my only time conflicts are if I have another caretaker booking already.
About Katelyn O.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have lots of experience and am very patient with pets of all kind. I’ve found that having a calm demeanor and soft touch goes a long way to helping me build trust with the pets I care for. But im also physically strong enough to keep larger pets like big dogs from barreling through the door or pulling out of my hands when leashed. I am very communicative with the pet parent and will message with any concerns or questions, always listening to what the pet parent requests for their fur babies. Your pet’s needs will always be heard and met! My past 2 years of experience has mostly been walking and drop-in visits, but I’m open to pet sitting and potentially boarding under the right circumstances. I unfortunately don’t have a yard but I am active and would love to take your dog with me to parks and trails for lots of outings.
Information Katelyn O. would like to know about your pet
Since I have 2 cats, I would need to know if your dog is ok around cats if boarding with me. Also, I’ve had some experience with dogs that are nervous or nip when scared, but I like to know that up front so that I can tailor my behavior or use any tricks you might have to help me avoid triggering them and making your pet feel safe and confident!
A typical day
I love going to dog parks or finding trails to give your dog lots of fun new things to explore and smell. I enjoy doing some mild jogging with the pups that like to run, but I’m also happy to take it slow for my senior dogs than want a more casual stroll. At home, I’ll spend lots of time playing and interacting with your pup. If your dog knows any tricks we can practice those while getting rewarded with a favorite toy or treat.

Pet care experience
I’ve had pets of all kind my whole life, including dogs, cats, horses, and fish. I currently have just 2 cats, but I’ve owned dogs before and I have lots of pet sitting and walking experience as a caregiver. Your pet will be loved and safe with me!

Reviews
Amazing sitter. Always on time, thorough, caring. Will definitely be booking again 😊
Katelyn was awesome with my puppy! She came and hung out with her for an afternoon and made sure she was loved and didn’t have any accidents in the house. Thank you Katelyn!
Katelyn is wonderful with my animals. She always shows up when she is supposed to, and they are always happy to see her. She is responsible and I highly recommend.
Katelyn has cat sat for me for a couple years whenever im out of town. And shes always done an amazing job of making sure shes well taken care of and fully entertained!
