Dog Lover

Pet care experience

Friendly & conscious dog lover with over 20 years experience sitting various types of dogs for family, friends and the community. One day I will have a dog (or maybe two!) of my own, but until the time is right, I’d love the opportunity to care for your pup while you are away at work or on vacation. I promise to care for them as I would my own. More about me: I live in a single-family home on the West side of Buffalo with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. I am close to Hotel Henry, Delaware Park, the Elmwood Village, and am very familiar with outdoor recreational space in the WNY region including the Empire Trail, Chestnut Ridge Park, Ellicott Creek dog park, etc. When I'm not daydreaming of being around dogs, I am most likely spending time with my dog-loving friends, biking, grilling food, spending time in nature, practicing yoga, or decorating my house. Please consider me the next time you need a hand with your pet! I work from home so I have a lot of time to play with and walk your dog. I am also active and enjoy being outside. I have a spacious single family home with plenty of room for crates, toys, and dog beds. I am comfortable with dogs on furniture and beds.

Katie took fantastic care of our Corgi Max, including giving him his medication which required crushing the pill and mixing it with something he would eat. Between the pictures she sent, the very specific texts describing his behavior, and how happy he was to be with her when we picked him up, we knew he was well taken care of by someone who loves dogs. Would definitely bring him to her again.

Katie was great with our pups who had never stayed with anyone before! They settled in to her house quickly and she was great with our last minute booking and changes.

Katie was great! She kept us updated throughout the day and took our boys on multiple walks. They seemed relaxed at her house it was obvious they really like her! I would 100% recommend Katie and would use her services again in the future!
