Dog Lover Looking to Help Walk!
Pet care experience
Hello! I would be delighted to walk your dog! I am a lover of all animals, especially dogs! I have years of experience taking care of a senior chocolate labrador with multiple health conditions (hip dysplasia and liver disease). I am cautious but comfortable walking multiple dogs at once and will always prioritize your prized pet! When it comes to other dogs, I will let your dog socialize within my best judgement! In addition, I will only provide treats based on your request. Pets are family members and I will treat yours with that respect! I am available Monday-Friday in the evening and all day Saturday and Sunday. You can reach me by phone or email and I will respond within the hour, at all times.

As one of Katie's roommates, I have been fortunate enough to witness first-hand Katie's love for all animals, especially dogs. She is often trusted with the weekend care of Molly, an elderly dog, while her Aunt goes away for business. Not only is Katie responsible and loving, but she also always puts forward the extra effort to ensure that Molly is comfortable, happy and healthy. Katie is extremely active, and loves to have a dog as a partner to take out on a long walk or run. Your dog will be extremely safe and happy while under Katie's care, and I highly recommend her for any dog walking or sitting job.
I am Katie's mother, Beth. I have been an active foster parent for a local cat shelter for over 15 years and I am active with several animal causes. This exposure has helped increased Katie's understanding and knowledge about animals. In addition, Katie has assisted with the care of an extended family member's dog (Chocolate Lab) by pet sitting and dog walking. Katie understands the demands of providing good animal care. In addition, she has acquired a love and respect for animals which is wonderful. She would be a conscientious and caring pet walker and/or sitter.
I am a veterinary student at the University of Pennsylvania and I would absolutely trust Katherine with my dog. I've known her for six years so I can confidently say that she is very responsible, intelligent, caring, loyal, and hard-working. She is also great with animals! She has had experience with cats and dogs all of her life. My dog absolutely adores her! If you hire Katherine, you can be sure that she will do whatever is needed and that your pet will be in great hands!
