Pet care experience

I am a resident of Springfield and work in a professional office environment. I'm 30 years old, I have cared for many different types of animals, but most of my experience is with dogs and cats, our companion animals! I am also familiar with smaller animals, like rats, hamsters, and birds. Along with larger animals like horses, cows, and other livestock that may need care. I have several excellent reference and would be happy to answer more questions about myself if you have any. Services: - Dogs, cats, exotics and pocket pets (I am comfortable with multiple pets & ALL breeds) - Single or Double Visits available - Visits include feeding, waste removal, 30 min walk, medication administration (including injections), basic house care (mail/paper, plants, trash/recycling) - Rates vary by number of pets and their specific needs - Meet n' Greets are free!

Katie is wonderful! I needed someone on short notice to dog/house sit and I’m so happy I found Rover.com and Katie. She came the night before I left town so I could show her the house and have her meet my St. Bernard Blossom. Blossom is 10 years old and the day before I left town I had to take her to the vet because she was having trouble putting weight on her front leg. The vet diagnosed severe arthritis and prescribed meds. With her new meds and Katie’s wonderful care I came home to a dog that is walking normally again. Katie sent regular updates and was quick to respond when I texted her. I will definitely use her again!

Information Katherine S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, I’m comfortable with all sizes of animals and I have experience with handling XL dogs. I would love to know if your dog has any favorite activities, is your dog crated at night or while you’re away from the home? Do they get along well with other dogs?

A typical day

Walks, throwing around the tennis ball, dog park visits if permitted by owner. Any dog staying with me will be showered in love and will feel comfortable in my home like it is their own.
