Student, fuzzy-creature-lover

Pet care experience

I WILL BE UNAVAILABLE FOR MOST OF THIS SEMESTER DUE TO MY CLASS SCHEDULE. Sorry for the inconvenience. I will update if this changes going forward. My family has had a dog nearly continuously since I was about seven (though I don't really count those early years towards "experience"), and I have participated in formal obedience and agility. I have cared for several of my own, other people's dogs ranging from a Newfoundland to yorkies, and dogs with issues such as fear aggression and poor house training, as well as older and special-needs dogs. Having been through the mouthy puppy phase a couple times, I've also dealt with quite a bit of nipping and teething. I'm a big fan of clicker and positive-feedback training. I have a soft spot for fuzzy creatures, but have a love and fascination of all living things and systems, and am currently pursuing a degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology. I am also an avid yogi and runner (recently half-marathoner [woo!]), and spend as much time outside as possible.

Katia is wonderful! I really appreciated that she came all the way to my apartment for the meet & greet, and my puppy Bear, who can be guarded around strangers, warmed up to her right away. Katia took my pup on a nice, long walk, and messaged me afterwards to let me know everything went well. I'll definitely be booking her again :)

Katia is a friendly, dependable, and accommodating dog walker. She was able to walk my Boston Terrier last minute before I left town. She kept me updated on his walks and I could tell that he enjoyed Katia's company. She answered my emails instantly when I had questions. I would highly recommend Katia to anyone looking for dog walking and I would certainly ask her to watch my dog again.

Information Katia K. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know how you make your dog happy and comfortable (playing ball, belly rubs, soothing music, a favorite toy, etc.), any health issues such as weight management or trouble with longer walks and stairs, and/ or issues around fear, separation anxiety or aggression you are trying to work on.

A typical day

While I love walking dogs in familiar environments in their own neighborhoods, especially if they have park buddies, there are also several parks and green spaces in my own neighborhood within easy walking distance if you're looking for a change of scenery for your pet. If there is an appropriate, fenced area, I'm happy to play ball or other off-leash activities, and I'm happy to work on most training issues with your dog.
