Pet care experience

Avid pet lover who’s compassionate!

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10! My neighbors used to rely on me as a pet sitter when they went out of town! I grew up with 4 dogs, 2 cats, 2 hamsters, and various fish. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and I love them dearly! I even taught my dog Cocoa a couple of tricks

Safety, trust & environment

My dogs at home had free rein over the house and the yard outside, but we still took them for walks. We would occasionally crate them or put them in the garage with a heater, but generally they stay inside. The cats are strictly indoor animals, but we occasionally let them out on the screened in porch. I am able to crate dogs if need be, but I am also comfortable watching the dogs in the house. One of our cats is diabetic, so I have experience giving animals shots and pills if need be.

Katie did a great job with our two beagles. It was such a comfort knowing that she was there for them. She definitely has a way with dogs. Highly recommend her for your dog walking/sitting needs.

Katherine did a great job with my dog and cats! She was very responsive to my messages, she kept me updated daily and sent pictures so I could see how they were doing. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

Katie was excellent staying with my pups for a 10-day vacation. She provided daily updates with pics, communicated timely and left my home cleaner than when I left. Would absolutely recommend her.

We scheduled on fairly short notice, met Katherine and found her incredibly polite and eager to look after our dogs. One of our dogs is quite merry of strangers, but she made fast friends with him. She was prompt, kept us informed, and she left everything clean including running and then unloading the dishwasher. We'd definitely have Katherine back to look after our guys!

Katie is a wonderful choice for a pet sitter because she loves animals. She has been around animals her whole life and knows how to care for different types of animals. Katie is a compassionate, trustworthy, kind, and dependable.

Schedule

Im currently a part-time student at Cape Fear, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets! I’m available anytime on Tuesday, Thursday, and Fridays! I am also free most weekends. Monday and Wednesday I am free 10:30am-12:30pm and anytime after 5pm. (I get out of school May 8th, so after that I will be free all week).

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Katherine can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your animals have any special needs or behaviors that I can look out for! Also let me know if your pet has a strict diet. I like to bring small treats for pets, but will not give them anything unless I know it’s okay to do so
