I am a software engineer, and I work from home every day with a ridiculously flexible schedule. I need my outdoors time, so I like to take walks or hang out in my backyard daily. Thanks to the dog sitting endeavor, my furry companions have been making my work breaks very very special ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

Boarding your dog with me is like sending him or her to grandma’s house. I’ll spoil them with love, attention and cuddles, and they’ll get to meet and play with their “doggy cousins”. On top of that I am young and active, so we’ll be taking many walks 🤗

Information Katia A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, aggressive tendencies or behaviors that I need to account for. Please provide a crate if your pup tends to destroy things or mark territory when left unattended. And please share what are their favorite ways to receive attention and love!

A typical day

A typical day when I’m taking care of pups is sweet and simple - walk, play, cuddle, treat, repeat! But if you have any special requests, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Pet care experience

@KatiasDoggyDaycare is now on TikTok! 🐾 I’m looking to help out my fellow dog AND bird lovers while they’re away and give their precious pets some well-deserved attention and care! Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a 2 week trip or anything in between, you can rest knowing your pup is in good hands and having the time of their life with their new doggy friends. Going on little adventures, playing at the park and strolling around the neighborhood are always on the menu at Katia’s Doggy Daycare, and of course lots of love, attention and belly rubs :) I used to have dogs of my own (a black mouth cur, a German shepherd/husky mix and an akita/German shepherd mix), but now my little family consists of two cockatiels. If you’re in Ambler, you might’ve seen me walking around with my birds! 😆 I am looking to host more parrots, so if you’re a bird owner going on vacation, I’d love to help!

Katia took Bear in last minute and we are so grateful to her. She took such great care of Bear. She sent us photos and videos showing him playing, going on walks, cuddling and just having an awesome time! Thank you again for helping us in a pinch but moreover for treating Bear with such loving care!

Katia was friendly, welcoming and kind when we booked service with her. She made sure our dog was in safe hands by providing detailed messages, pictures and videos. I highly recommend Katia as a dog sitter!
