Pet care experience

Your family, my friends

I have had all kinds of pets since I was born, from dogs and cats, to horses and guinea pigs. I started caring more for my pets when my family got a golden-doodle puppy when I was 14 and a freshman in high school. I now have three cats and two dogs at home, and I have house-trained and taught them a few tricks. Additionally, I have previously volunteered at my local animal shelter, walking, feeding, and giving medication to both cats and dogs. My work schedule is flexible and I am available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I can also assist with administering necessary medication, as well as any extra tasks that need to done. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and spending time with your fur babies!

Katey is so fantastic with our dog Ginger. Always goes above and beyond to make sure Ginger is doing good. You couldn’t have a better dog walker and sitter, truly.

Katey went above and beyond while taking care of our fluff. She was considerate of the pets needs as well as our home while she stayed.

Kathy has been our primary walker for our dog for a while but she stayed over for the first time while we’ve been out of town and everything went so wonderfully. I had great peace of mind knowing Katey was watching our doggo and didn’t have any worries. She sent good updates and was very communicative. We will definitely be rebooking!!

We really appreciate Katie taking care of our little prima-Donna. He is not the easiest dog to watch but Katie does a great job! Katie always gives us updates and makes sure we don’t worry about him. Thank you Katie!

Katey was beyond wonderful with our babies. She made sure to attend to their schedule, especially their walks. Katey communicated well with me to keep me updated on how it was going or to ask and answer my questions. I loved the pictures she sent me and my pups looked so content. I was so relieved to have someone truly caring for my babies the way I asked. Hope to book Katey again when we're away.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I recently graduated from Auburn University and am currently working part-time while home, and I am looking to fill my spare time with your cute pets!

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

Due to the nature of my home already having its fair share of animals, I will not be able to provide lodging for your pet at my house. However I am available for practically all other services!

Pets

A typical day

I can make sure that your dog is working both physically and mentally. I live right by a national forest, so there are plenty of hiking trails available. In addition, there is a dog park close that my own dogs and I frequent. I have a car, so I if your dog is comfortable with it, we can take a short drive to many different fun places!

I would love to know what makes your dog different. Including things you want me to avoid, how they interact with other dogs, and even your preferred action plan for minor issues, such as a bee sting. (doggy Benadryl at home, or vet visit?) I love all breeds and do not have any preferences. Let me know how I can make yours and your dog's experience the best possible!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
