The Next Best Thing To Being There!

I’ve taken care of animals since I was 15 years old. I love them all! People have always been able to count on me to care for their precious furry family member when they go on vacation or just need an animal taken care of during the day. I am currently a full-time student and do all of my classes online so my schedule is completely open to any needs. Whether it be housesitting or walking, my schedule is open. I am fully and readily available to adapt to whatever special or regular needs for health and/or safety that your fur baby requires. I look forward to meeting with you so that I am making sure that I am completely following your pets daily routine.

She was absolutely fantastic with Milo! She took such great care of him, kept me updated, and was so patient with him. I also really appreciated the tips and pointers she gave me about Milo being a puppy. It was so helpful to get her insight and learn more about what to expect at this stage. You can truly tell she cares about the dogs she watches. I would definitely recommend her and would absolutely book with her again! 🥰

Bessie loved her stay! Katie did an exceptional job catering to our girly’s needs. Anxiety was met with snuggles, garbage eating was met with problem-solving, and we were kept updated along the way—without any dog-parent guilt. It’s safe to say Bessie met a new favorite human, and we’ll definitely be booking again! 🐾
