My current job has a hybrid schedule, and I work from home most days, so my schedule is quite flexible. This allows me to provide consistent and attentive care to your pets. Every animal holds a special place in my heart, and I understand how important they are to you. Whether your family includes dogs🐕, cats🐈, birds🦜, or any other type of animal, you can trust that they will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own critters. I look forward to meeting your beloved pets and ensuring they are happy, safe, and well-cared for while you're away!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a very peaceful house with my dog and cat. My house has nature trails, several ponds and paved walking trails. If your cat were to stay with me overnight, they'd stay in my large bathroom with a large bed, litter box, and water fountain. Dogs will be kept in my dog's crate overnight and let out for the last time at 10:30pm and again at 6am.

Information Katherine F. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog/cat has any unusual behaviors. I can accommodate any behaviors from your dog or cat, but I need to know beforehand.

A typical day

I love to play and play with any animal. Just let me know what your critter enjoys doing and I'll make sure to do whatever activities you recommend!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Katie, and I am a highly educated, experienced caretaker of all types of animals. If it walks on four legs, more than likely I've taken care of them at some point haha! My journey with animals began when I was just 8 years old. Now at 23, my home is filled with love thanks to my wonderful pets: Elita, my loyal five-year-old German Shepherd 🐕, and Bumblebee, my overly adorable six-year-old calico cat🐈. I attended Auburn University (before I transferred to a cheaper school), where I majored in Animal Science and was an active member of the equestrian team (hunt seat). I was also a member of their Eventing team! My passion for animals isn't just limited to my own pets; I've dedicated countless hours to understanding and caring for them. I interned under many eventers, worked under several veterinarians, and gained many years of invaluable experience. I have lived in California, Colorado, Wisconsin, Florida, Alabama and Georgia, and each state I lived in gave me more and more experience with many different kinds of animals. Beyond my technical training, I have volunteered at a service dog training non-profit, which gave me a unique perspective on the incredible bond between animals and humans. My time working at numerous animal shelters has further fueled my dedication to providing the best care for all creatures. I also have a special fondness for birds, especially macaws (coolest birds I have ever been around for sure).

Katherine is absolutely wonderful! She was very responsive and reliable. I also appreciate that she would grab our packages if we had any sitting and bring them in. I will absolutely schedule care with Katherine again in the future!
