I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and a fenced-in backyard, so dogs have space to safely play and go outside as needed. I also love walking and make it a point to walk my dog every morning and evening, so any pups staying with me will get regular exercise, attention, and lots of love as part of my daily routine.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs that need to be looked after. I am very adaptable and have time to care for any type of dog.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk to get some fresh air and exercise. Since I work from home, the dogs get plenty of attention throughout the day along with outdoor time in my fenced backyard for play and bathroom breaks. My dog loves having friends over, so there’s usually some playtime and relaxing around the house between my work tasks. In the evening, we go on another walk and settle in for a calm night. I try to keep each dog’s routine as close to what they’re used to at home so they feel comfortable and happy.

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up around dogs and have always loved caring for them. I frequently watch my friends’ dogs when they’re out of town, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re my own. I also have a 3 year old mini goldendoodle who is very friendly, loves to play and gets along great with other dogs.

Katherine was such a great sitter for our dog! She was great with communication, sent a bunch of updates throughout the stay, and her dog, Margot, is so adorable and friendly! We will definitely be reaching out for our future needs. Thanks again, Katherine!

Katie was so sweet with Murphy, she graciously let us do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure he and Margot were buddies (they got on famously), and was very communicative about his time there, and was diligent in administering his twice daily medications. She was flexible working with our drop off and pick up schedule and I look forward to booking with her again if the need arises!
