Pet care experience

Friendly, neighborhood sitter-woman

Well, hi there! I'm Katie, a Texan transplant to the PNW, and I'm so excited to meet you! To me, pets are family. I've had the great honor of loving and caring for dogs, cats, birds, and all manner of other critters throughout my life—and theirs. I believe that the measure of a person can be weighed by how they treat the creatures around them, and that philosophy shines through in the care I provide for your pets.

Your pet, and your home, will always be treated with the utmost in respect and care.

Katie is highly communicative, friendly and we felt so good on our vacation knowing our pets were in good hands. This was our first time leaving our puppy behind, and Katie provided lots of updates and continued his training while we were gone! Our cat also fell in love with her, and we could tell he was feeling so relaxed in our absence.

Katie was amazing and took such good care of Vader. She got some cute pictures and even brought in the cat litter delivery that arrived a day early!

Katie was wonferful with Moose! He is a skittish cat but he warmed up to Katie very quickly. She sent lots of fun details of each drop in. I'd definitely work with them again!

We’ve been partnering with Katie for quite some time - our cat enjoys her company and We know he’s in good hands while we’re away.

Katie recently house and dog sat for me for the first time, and I couldn't have been more pleased with her level of care. I have a large breed 8 month old puppy and a 12 year old small breed, and they both were very comfortable with Katie. I came home to happy, healthy pups and a well-looked after home. Also enjoyed the daily updates with pictures! Very grateful for Katie!
