Let's go on an adventure!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs and other animals every moment of my life for as far back as I can remember. I currently have 2 small dogs- both friendly to other animals, 5 ferrets, 1 elderly rabbit in her own room and 2 cats. I love animals and I love caring for them and working with them. I have experience with dogs that are not of the friendliest sort and with dogs who need medication for whatever reason. Tue-Thur I work 8hrs, and I am off Fri-Mon. I take them on lots of fun adventures like swimming and hiking. If a dog is one who just likes to cuddle on the couch, I can happily do that as well. I'm typically flexible with making myself available as long as it's not last minute- I'm a girl who enjoys making a plan ahead of time and sticking to it. I might accept last minute stay bookings depending on what I work during that time and what your situation is. I do not accept stays Tues-Thur. There is no smoking in my house or my car. Pets are allowed on furniture and are treated as if they are home while they stay with me, they get treated just as my personal animals do. Pets are also seatbelted in my car. No exceptions.

Great with our dog. Always messaged back quickly. Sent pics of the dog. Over all a great experience. Would highly recommend. :)

Katie was flexible with my schedule and accommodated my changing day. Olive had a COMPLETE BLAST with her two dogs. We did a meet and great yesterday, and that sealed the deal. I admit, I was nervous leaving our dog with someone I did not know. Meeting Katie the day before was perfect. I had absolutely no concerns regarding her care for Olive. She took her to fetch both on land and in a nearby lake. Katie shared many great pictures and videos of Olive playing. When I picked her up, Katie had taken the time to brush her out and spritz her with detangler. I will definitely reach out to Katie in the future. SHE’S AWESOME???

Wonderful care for our 60lb mix breed Josie. Very responsive and kept us up to date with pictures throughout the day. Josie already misses all of her new buddies.

From the photos and video we got it appears Willie had a great time. He was treated as part of the family. We will be using Katelyn to watch Willie on our next trip.
