Pet care experience

Experienced Dog & Cat Care

Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve been walking and caring for them for as long as I can remember. I have six years of dog walking experience and work confidently with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I’ve trained two Irish Wolfhound puppies, so I’m comfortable with big breeds, strong pullers, and growing pups who need structure and patience. I also spent a year and a half working at a cat shelter, where I provided basic and medical care to kittens, senior cats, and disabled cats. That experience strengthened my ability to handle a wide range of temperaments and medical needs with calm, attentive care. I truly love working with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own

Drop-In Visits • Apr 29, 2026

Katie took care of my cat George for a full week of drop-in visits, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She spent time actually playing with him (not just the basics), and it showed—George looked so happy and relaxed in all the updates she sent. Speaking of updates, Katie sent a ton of them, which I absolutely loved. It made being away so much easier knowing exactly how he was doing each day. She also went above and beyond by watering my plants, which I really appreciated. I would 100% book Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable pet sitter!

Katherine was fantastic! Every day I was updated and she was quick to ask questions/let me know of any issues. It was great to know Nova was in good hands while I was away.

Katherine was great! My cats warmed up to her immediately upon her first visit. She sent great photos, provided good updates and it was clear she spent time giving them attention while I was away. Would definitely recommend her and would use her again.

House Sitting • Apr 09, 2026

This was our first time picking Katherine to watch our two dogs and one cat while we were away and she did so great with them!! She even gave our dog Chai a bath! We didn't have to over worry with her at our house and she even did some other cleaning before we got home. She also worked around a challenging behavior with our dog Mocha. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter and will reach out to her again when we are planning to be away in the future. Thank you! M&N

We love Katie and will definitely be asking her to care for our cuddlebug pup again. She was very reliable and our dog’s joy was showing through every Rover card. We have a backyard, but she still took our strong and still leash-training pup on daily walks. Above and beyond care!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, preferences, or behavior I need to account for. I have worked with all kinds of dogs and have no issues working with large or high energy breeds.
