Friendly, neighborhood sitter-woman

Pet care experience

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.

Katie was put through the ringer when my elderly pup got sick on her very first day caring for him while I was out of the country, and she handled the situation so gracefully, provided him with loving care, and kept me informed on how he was doing multiple times per day. I am so grateful that she was the one taking care of him. By the time I got home, he was feeling better and was back to his old self, which goes to show that Katie did an excellent job in what was certainly an unexpected and stressful situation. I would trust her to care for him again any time, and only hope that my old boy doesn't spontaneously barf next time. 🙈 Thank you, Katie! You're a trooper!

Katie was wonderful with my Mal-Chi, Simon. He is a fearful little boy but by the end of the visit she had him in her lap! So happy we found her!
