Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving your pet like its my own!
My personal exposure to pets ranges from 3 large dogs to 2 cats of very different personalities! My sweet dog, Ruby, was adopted when she was 1 month old and has been my best friend for 11 years. She is a Heeler (high energy, I know!), which means I know the importance of attention and exercise for high energy animals. Since I have raised her from her little years, puppies are not a struggle for me! I know the importance of attention and careful care to ensure the little ones don't hurt themselves, others or destroy anything in their wake. My previous pets have lived long happy lives, with their senior years giving me amazing skills when caring for friends, family and other client's senior pets. Due to my personal experiences with a senior pet, I know the importance of their schedule and care. But also the fear felt by pet owners when leaving their sweet senior in the hands of a stranger. So regardless of if they are little babies, in the prime of their life or old and wise, I will take care of your pet like its my own till you return!

Safety, trust & environment
I have stayed at clients homes previously, both after our initial visit as well as neighbors. Like my care with your pet, treating your space with only respect and care is my priority. Along with caring for your pet, I will take great care of your space regardless if I am staying there or just visiting during your time away. Also, if you have plants that need care... I am happy to see to them as well! I am a plant parent too!
Ratings and reviews
Katie is absolutely wonderful! She is the first non-family member that we’ve had over to watch our 2-year old Boxer while we went out-of-town for a long weekend. We usually bring our dog everywhere with us, but there are those rare times when it just can’t happen, and Katie was a perfect fit for us. She has experience with larger breeds with lots of energy and we felt confident that our dog would be well-cared for. He loved her right away! She is warm, friendly, and brings a calm yet assured energy. We had great communication and she was quick to respond to any questions. It was comforting NOT having to worry about our pup while we were gone! We will definitely ask her to come back the next time we’re away.
Took great care of Hank the cat!
Katie did an absolutely amazing job caring for our pets while we were away. She took care of our cat, three dogs, and even our horse with such professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our animals were in such loving and capable hands. She kept us updated, was dependable, and clearly treated our pets like they were her own. When we returned home, all of our animals were happy, well cared for, and relaxed — which says everything about the quality of care she provides. It can be difficult to trust someone with your pets and home, especially with multiple animals and different care needs, but Katie exceeded every expectation. We would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet sitter.
