Pet care isn’t just a job for me—it’s the heartbeat of my daily routine. I integrate your pet’s needs seamlessly into a structured schedule of feeding, exercise, and enrichment. My goal is to maintain the consistency they crave, ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and perfectly pampered while you’re away. I use my background in Anthrozoology to ensure every routine I build supports your pet’s specific behavioral and physical needs

Safety, trust & environment

Your home is their sanctuary, and I treat it with the reverence it deserves. Beyond the science of my Anthrozoology degree is a deep respect for the bond you share with your pet. A Shared Language: I prioritize building a bond of trust with your pet, using gentle patience to ensure their time with me is the highlight of their day—never a source of stress. Total Transparency: Consider me your pet’s personal biographer! I’ll send frequent, heartwarming updates and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Safety is a Promise: From strict security routines to clinical-level hygiene, I guard your home and your companions as if they were my own. Your peace of mind is my greatest priority.

Information Katelyn W. would like to know about your pet

I want your pets to feel like their routine hasn’t missed a beat while you’re gone. To help them settle in, please share their 'World' with me: What they love (and what they really don't!) Their 'Safe Space' and daily schedule. Medical & Vet details (so I can be their advocate in any situation). Your 'Owner Wishlist'—whether it's daily photos or a text after every walk, I'm here to make this a stress-free experience for you both.

A typical day

Let’s trade boredom for backyard adventures and trail-blazing treks! I don’t just 'watch' your pets; I give them the highlight of their day. Whether it’s an invigorating hike through local scenic trails or a high-energy play session tailored to their personality, I’m passionate about keeping their tails wagging and their minds sharp. Your pet won't just be tired ; they'll be fulfilled.

Pet care experience

I turn my passion for animals into a professional service. 🎓 The Credentials: B.S. in Anthrozoology & Former Vet Tech. 🐴 The Experience: Currently a Stall Cleaner & Professional Sitter for Harvey’s Homestead Keepers. 🐶 The Personal Touch: Mom to Lydia (a very social pup!). 🐰 The Range: Dogs, cats, horses, bunnies, birds, and exotics. I’m currently available for drop-ins, dog walking, and house sitting. I’m comfortable with medical needs and senior pets. Let’s give your pet the "five-star" treatment they deserve!

Have used Kate multiple times to stay with our pets and our house. She does a great job and is super respectful of the space. Will continue to use her in the future.

Katelyn did a wonderful job of taking care of our 2 fur babies and our home. She sent pics and videos to us on a daily basis and asked questions when she needed to. I would highly recommend her

Katelyn was professional and communicative. She did a great job with the dogs. Will be reaching out to her again.
