Pet care experience

Life-Long Animal Lover!

I have grown up with always having animals around. I have lived on multiple farms, and have volunteered with several animal sanctuaries, including one for wildlife in Costa Rica. I also have spent the last five years fostering animals with the Humane society as I lived in Asheville and completed my schooling. Through this experience, I have worked with neonatal newborns, pregnant and nursing mothers, potty training- ages, senior pets, and those who take medication.

Safety, trust & environment

Every animal is unique, and I love to get to know their personalities and preferences! It is my goal to ensure that animal and animal parent both are happy and comfortable.

Katie was incredibly helpful taking care of the animals on our small homestead! I knew that whenever we had to leave home for an extended period of time that our animals would be in good care with her. She did a great job, even taking care of our llamas and newborn piglets in our absence. She was a great houseguest and we would recommend her to anyone!
