Can Rover come over?!?! 🐾🐾

My fiancé and I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. Our experience includes feeding according to dietary needs, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. And let’s not forget, all the cuddles your pup will allow!

Katie did such an amazing job with Winston!! He’s a big boy with a ton of energy but he was so happy to have his staycation ❤️❤️ Katie’s help gave us peace of mind and we will continue to use her as our primary Rover. Thank you so much for taking wonderful care of our boy!

Katherine does a great job taking care of my dog. I have an anxiety prone former shelter dog with a ton of energy and Katherine is probably the best dog sitter I’ve ever gotten for Haisley. She spends a lot of time taking care of your dog and sends good updates and photos

Katie is awesome! She is very reliable, communicative, and clearly great with pets. I appreciated the updates and photos, and my pup was happy and well cared for. Will definitely book with her in the future!

House Sitting • Oct 15, 2025

Katie went absolutely above and beyond for us when we were gone for a few days. From the beginning meet and greet, I felt extremely comfortable having her stay with us from the way she interacted with our pack of 3 large dogs, and just how she interacted with us too. Our dogs can be a lot and she handled them amazingly. During our trip, Katie sent us the perfect amount of updates and pictures (which she is cognizant to ask during the meet and greet!), and the pictures were all incredible. Our dogs looked so happy and playful and adorable! I could tell they were having a blast with her ❤️. Katie was also super responsive to my texts which I very much appreciated - it let me know she was here and very active with our pups! Katie left the house far cleaner than when we left too, making the day after a long trip so easy. Katie is truly a star sitter that has a wonderful heart for people and animals, takes her role very seriously, and I would use her again without hesitation.

Just always so, so appreciative of Katie's care for our cat when we're out of town - and especially when said cat is going under anesthesia the next day and needs to eat and stop eating at very specific times. Our fur baby is always kind of complicated to deal with but Katie always makes it look easy and treats her with so much love.

Katherine took SUCH good care of my babies!! She gave my cat her medicine with no issues and showered my puppy with attention. She sent daily updates and pictures which meant so much because I missed them terribly. I would trust her with them anytime!!

Schedule

Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine, as both my fiancé, Renas, and I work from home. I work part-time and he works full-time, which means one of us is always home to provide attentive care. Renas shares my love for animals and is always actively involved in caring for the pets we welcome. Our schedules are flexible and fully adaptable to meet your pet’s unique needs.

Safety, trust & environment

While your pet is in our care, we will follow any schedule/routine that fits your pets needs. We will also ensure proper feeding/watering and any dietary restrictions. Pets will have regular walks and playtime as well as proper physical and mental stimulation such as engaging in games or activities that cater to the pet’s personality and energy level. If games and activities aren’t your pets cup of tea, we can be great couch potatoes and cuddle buddies as well. Maintaining a clean pet environment is a priority ensuring their space is free from hazards. Any basic grooming needs will also be provided. Last but not least, we are happy to keep pet owners updated regularly through messages, pictures, or videos to provide peace of mind. (Pets are allowed on furniture and are welcome to sleep in bed if preferred 😊) Side note- We live in a two story home on a half acre lot that backs up to a wooded area. Our yard is not fenced in so dogs will need to be leashed when going outside. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with tree lined streets and sidewalks on both sides. There’s also several trails nearby that’s great for dog walking and adventures!

A typical day

Fun activities can include walks around our dog friendly neighborhood, walks along the many trails nearby, playtime with their favorite toys as well as all the cuddles your pet will allow.
