Pet care experience

Compassionate Care for Your Pets

I have always been trusted with people’s animals. My own family called me Dr. Doo Little because of how quickly I connect with animals who don’t know me. I have experienced in all different types of animals from dogs, cats, and even large animals like horses. I’ve worked with many different ages of animals. I got a degree in Animal Science from OSU because of the love I have for animals

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In both my home and my clients’ homes, I prioritize the comfort and well-being of each pet. I take time to understand their unique needs, routines, and personalities, ensuring an stress-free environment. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, administering medication, or providing company, I follow detailed instructions and maintain constant communication with pet owners. I also prioritize safety, making sure the home is secure and the pet is comfortable at all times. My years of experience have taught me to recognize subtle signs of discomfort or stress, allowing me to adjust my approach as needed to keep pets happy and healthy.

House Sitting • Oct 05, 2025

Katie was a life saver in a pinch! She responded to my contact message immediately and found a time to come meet the pups on short notice, an 8 year old German shepherd and a 4 month old border collie puppy. She was so so good to them over the weekend and they loved her! We will definitely be requesting her house sitting services again!

Please let me know if your pet has any special accommodations like medicine, certain time of exercise, type of feeding schedule etc. I am pretty flexible and can do almost anything for pets.
