Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet's New Best Friend!
I have always had animals around in my life. Overall, I have had the pleasure of having 8 dogs, 2 rabbits, 2 guinea pigs, 1 hamster, and lots of fish (both freshwater and saltwater). Additionally, I have had the opportunity to care for the cats of family members. I have experience with: -Positive Reinforcement Training -Leash Handling -Muzzle Usage -Reactivity Training Guided by Licensed Animal Behaviorists -Veterinary Medication Administration Currently, I have one dog, Josie, who is an Australian Shepherd/Blue Heeler Mix. Josie is dog reactive, and I have spent an extensive amount of time working on her training and care.

Safety, trust & environment
Since I have a dog at home who is anxious and reactive, I am not able to care for your pet in my own home; however, I would love to care for your fur baby where they are most comfortable -- in your home or in your neighborhood. I typically arrive with small treats in a pouch to share, ensuring my greeting is always positive. While at your home, I will ensure your pet receives exercise/play, multiple potty breaks, and refill water/food as needed. I believe in positive reinforcement, ensuring my interactions with your pet are always kind and respectful.
Ratings and reviews
I had an excellent experience with Katelyn! From the moment we met, I could tell she was both professional and attentive. She took the time to understand my pup's needs and preferences which really put my mind at ease. Throughout the meetup, she showed genuine affection and care, making sure my dog felt comfortable and happy. It was heartwarming to see how much my pup liked her. They have quickly formed a bond that makes my dog excited for each visit. I truly appreciate her punctuality and the updates she provides. Many more play dates are in the future. It’s such a relief to find someone I trust to take care of little lady!
Katelyn is one of the most caring, passionate, and patient people I know. She brings these qualities into every aspect of her life, especially through the immense love, compassion, and dedication she shows toward all creatures on this planet. Her genuine care for others—both human and animal—reflects the kind, selfless person she truly is.
