I’ll be your pets new best friend!

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up caring for dogs since I was 6 and have cared for many breeds from small to large. Not only do I care for your pup I also provide love and a good bond with them. I understand how important our fur babies are to us and I’ll do what I can to keep your dog happy and healthy! I am able to check blood pressure properly as well as administer insulin for diabetic animals and administer pills and other medications the correct and safest ways. I am comfortable with other house pets such as cats, birds, reptiles, etc. I thoroughly enjoy photography so there is a very high chance I will take many pictures of your pets and of course I’ll send them to you! I am currently in college and working part time so my schedule will vary depending on day and time. I have great patience when it comes to all animals no matter the temperament or energy levels so I’m positive your pets will be comfortable with me! And even better I have experience in behavioral training and have studied the psychology of dogs for years so who knows I might show you who your dog really is!

Kat was AMAZING! I was so worried to leave my super clingy dog with someone else but she just LOVED Kat from the minute she met her. We will definitely be using her again in the future.

Katelyn R stayed in our home with our 7 year old Gordon Setter, Blue, and 6 monthf old Goldendoodle puppy, Doc. Katelyn stayed for 4 days and 3 nights in our home. This was the first time Doc has been away from us. Our dogs adored Katelyn. When we returned, the dogs looked great and the house was picked up and clean. Doc is still in the process of potty training. He's doing well but not quite there yet. Katelyn worked with him, cleaned up a couple of accidents and excitement piddles without complaint. She is delightful, competent, and loaded with dog sense. I highly recommend Katelyn and will use her again without hesitation.

Information Katelyn R. would like to know about your pet

I need to know the energy level and regular behavior patterns as well as the commands of your pet to ensure I can perform the best visits with them! Don’t worry about scaring me away I’m experienced with all breeds and behaviors so it’s most likely nothing I haven’t dealt with before!

A typical day

I absolutely LOVE to train dogs! Getting to see how different breeds learn is so inspiring to me and I can guarantee your dog will learn at least one new trick while in my care! And for active breeds I love a good workout!
