Veterinary Assistant who LOVES pets

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Katy! I am a veterinary assistant working at McClelland Small Animal Hospital, and I’m pet sitting not only due to my love of animals, but to use the extra funds to help pay for my dream wedding! I’ve had pets my entire life, and I’m so fortunate to be able to help care for others' pets every day. I will love and treat your critters like they are my own, as taking care of animals is truly my passion. I currently work full time at an animal hospital and own 3 dogs, a cat, a chameleon, a crab, and some puffer fish, so pet care is truly second nature to me. When I’m entrusted in caring for your pet and your home, I will be there all night and in the morning before I head into work. I will check on them during my lunch hour so they can have a potty break, lunch (if needed), play time, cuddles, and plenty of attention, before I'm back with them right after work. I'm always incredibly respectful of my clients homes, ensuring things are just as neat and tidy (if not more so) than they were when I arrived. Mail will be brought in, trash taken out, and bed linens cleaned. You're on a vacation, why worry about cleaning up when you get home?!

Katelyn has stayed with our English bulldog Ozzy several times and she is fantastic! Our initial meet and greet was very detailed and made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog in her care. She not only takes great care of Ozzy, but she sends lots of updates and makes sure your house is nice & tidy after her stay. Highly recommend Katelyn.

Katelyn was fantastic! She cared for our pets and home so well and was a great communicator while we were on our trip. We would definitely book with her again 😊

Katy was fantastic! She communicated consistently and was a pleasure to have watch our fur-baby. I would happily have Katy stay with Max again.

Safety, trust & environment

As the owner of pets who have trouble being removed from their “safe space,” you can rest easy knowing that your pets will receive plenty of love and care in the place they feel the most comfortable. During a meet and greet, I come prepared with an information sheet to fill out so that I can make sure I cater to each pets specific needs. Everything from feeding times, food sensitivities, and jotting down your pets favorite toys and activities just to name a few!

Information Katelyn S. would like to know about your pet

Anything you’d like me to know! What are your pets likes and dislikes? Are they on any medications? Are they reactive to other dogs or other animals?

A typical day

We can snuggle, play, enjoy walks around the neighborhood, whatever you and your pet are down for. I’m a sucker for a doggie field trip too, as long as mom and dad say it’s okay!
