Highlights
Pet care experience
Paws, Purrs & Peace of Mind
What sets me apart is that I genuinely love animals and treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. As the proud dog mom of Bonnie, my 11-year-old Yorkie, I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member. I take that responsibility seriously and strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and affection that I would want for my own pet. I have over 13 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes puppies & kittens, senior pets, pets with special diets, oral medication administration, and pets that thrive on structured routines. I'm comfortable caring for high-energy dogs that need plenty of exercise as well as older pets who require a gentler pace and extra patience. I also have extensive experience caring for cats, including feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, companionship, and adapting to each cat's unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or shy and independent, I'm committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. In addition to providing attentive care, I offer a flexible schedule and can often adjust my work commitments to accommodate my clients' needs. I provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is always to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

Safety, trust & environment
Whether I'm caring for your pets in your home for a drop-in visit, walk, or overnight stay, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. I take the time to learn each pet's preferences, schedule, and any special needs so they can enjoy a stress-free experience while you're away. For dogs, that may include walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, medications, and plenty of companionship. For cats, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, affection (on their terms!), and careful monitoring to ensure they're happy and healthy. I treat every home with the utmost respect and always leave it as I found it. I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, and help with other small tasks while you're away. Most importantly, I provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are receiving the same love, attention, and care that I give my own pet, Bonnie. My goal is to give both you and your pets complete peace of mind.
Ratings and reviews
Katy did a great job! Wouldn't hesitate to hire her again :)
Katherine’s great! She took our dog for an hour walk, even got her a pup cup. Would highly recommend.
Katie was great with our 2 large babies! She was communicative before and during the overnight stays at our home. I didn’t have to worry if they were in good care. Would recommend and use her again!
I would highly recommend Katie to look after your beloved fur-babies!
Katie was amazing! She took great care of my baby and sent me daily pics and updates. I could tell he was really happy with her. I will definitely use her again to babysit and I know Brinx can't wait to see her again.
Katie was great! Pups were very happy to have such good care while we were gone.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I work a flexible hybrid schedule and typically go into the office two days a week, usually Tuesdays and Wednesdays, for about eight hours. However, I can often adjust those days or work remotely when needed to accommodate my clients and their pets. Whether it's morning walks, midday drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, litter box cleaning, or overnight stays, I'm committed to making sure dogs and cats receive the care, attention, and companionship they need. Because I have a flexible schedule, I'm often able to accommodate last-minute requests, extended visits, and pets with specific routines. My priority is ensuring your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
