Very active. I'll run with your dog

Pet care experience

Hello! I decided to join Rover because I am currently looking for full-time employment and absolutely adore animals so...hear I am! In my time I have owned multiple cats and I currently take care of the love of my life, Sox - a 5 yr. old lab mix, so I know the ins and outs of pet ownership. What I love about pets the most is that each has their own personality, and as such I will always do my best to observe their needs and adjust my behavior accordingly. If I had to focus on a special skill, it would most likely be dog walking, as I am an active person and very much enjoy being outside. As stated above, I am looking for full-time employment so in terms of availability I am open to any days and times. I’m a teacher who is off for summer break just trying to make some extra cash. I have a lot of experience walking/boarding pups and I’m excited to take it up again. I have a decently sized apartment in a nice neighborhood. My dog and I like to go for a long walk, run around the neighborhood or relax on the balcony.

We were new users of this service and so were a little nervous, especially because our dog is needy and anxious. Katie understood him very well and took excellent care of him. When my husband came to pick him up, he was reluctant to leave her! We highly recommend Katie and will request her again when we travel without our dog.

Katie was awesome! She was on time, professional and my pup came back happy and tired. Will use her anytime I can't get home to walk Sox!

Katie was great! She was very professional and made everything easy. I will definitely be using her again in the future.

Katherine was very nice, but this was just not a great stay for our dog. We asked that he be kept in his kennel while she was gone so that he wouldn't get out, and yet we got a call from a stranger that he was wandering the streets one night. Luckily she was able to find him. But when we got home we went to the vet and he had a yeast infection and a bacterial infection in both of his ears due to the heat. He is very heat sensitive and it seemed like she just kept him out back the whole time. We also only got 2 pics of him and we were gone for 8 days!

Information Katherine V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they are active and playful, or a bit more introverted. I have a 10 year old lab mix who likes to play, so they will have to be comfortable with that.

A typical day

I enjoy walking my dog the couple mile walk around the nearby park. I also have ropes and tennis balls so a trip to the dog park is always a good option.
