Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog whisperer with cuddles to give
I have 16 years experience with different dog breeds ranging from German shepherd to border collie to chihuahua, and puppies to senior dogs. I’m comfortable helping dogs that are a little more unique, such as easily stressed and anxious. I currently own an 8 year old lab mix who has anxiety, but I luckily have a big fenced in backyard that helps a lot from her exercising. My fence is 6 feet high, so she’s unable to jump over it even when she jumps as high as a kangaroo playing frisbee. I love all dogs as if they were my own, and have plenty of toys for them to feel right at home.

Ratings and reviews
Katie hosted my dog Jazzy for an overnight practice run before a vacation. She made me feel completely at ease and my dog (who is a notoriously picky eater) ate his whole dinner and a bit of breakfast with no problems. Katie provided me videos and photos throughout his stay so I knew he was okay, and I couldn’t be happier to leave him with Katie in the future!
Our pittie Sandie is very anxious which made me nervous leaving her for 10 nights but Katie was so amazing with her! She treated Sandie like she was her own❤️ She sent pics, videos and updates daily which we loved. Her dog Rooney was so welcoming to Sandie, they were lil besties. While we were away on vacation, so was our dog! I will definitely book with Katie again in the future.
I brought my dog Jasper to Katie for a day visit in preparation for an overnight as he’s a little clingy and sensitive to changes in routine. He did spectacular with her. He was able to rest, go for a walk and Katie sent me so many wonderful pictures of him absolutely relaxed and having the best time. Katie was able to assuage my anxieties and treated my dog as if he was her own. I highly recommend!
Kathryn was wonderful and loving to my dog Lizzy while I was away. She provided me with pictures and videos that was great to see. I would recommend Kathryn to anyone.
Kathryn was amazing with Cooper! Daily check ins, photos and videos made it that much easier to leave Cooper. We looked forward to seeing what shenanigans Cooper and Rooney were getting into.
Katie took great care of our dog Luke! She sent videos and pictures to keep us updated everyday. We will definitely be using her again.

Schedule
I work from home, and am able to have flexibility in my day to give your dog the attention they deserve. My schedule is open to take care of your dog for boarding, giving oral medication, walks, etc.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a 6 foot fenced in yard and an 8 year old lab mix who still acts like a puppy outside but acts like a grandma inside so your dog won’t be bored.
Pets
A typical day
My backyard is big enough for your dog to run around and round in with lots of smells for them to investigate. Also, I have plenty of toys, blankets, and games to keep your dog preoccupied.
