Walks, Cuddles & Lots of Love!

I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have always had such a strong love for animals! 🐾 I love walks, playtime, cuddles, and simply giving pets lots of love and attention while their humans are away. I have a fenced-in yard and am available most mornings, over lunch, and evenings for drop-ins, walks, or weekend stays. I’m also happy to meet beforehand! I have an 8-year-old Lab mix named Forrest who is the absolute sweetest and loves making new friends. ❤️ I’d love to spoil your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away!

I have known Katie for 10+ years and I can’t think of anyone better to recommend as a dog sitter, walker, or caregiver! She is the true definition of a dog lover and will treat your pet like her own. Katie has not only cared for her pets with great love and care, but is always there to offer her help with dog sitting for friends and family. She provides the love and attention that you want your pet to receive when you’re unable to be there! She is responsible and you can feel safe knowing your pet is in great hands. I highly recommend her and you won’t be disappointed in your choice and neither will your pets!

Depending on your dog’s routine and what you’re comfortable with, we can enjoy walks around the neighborhood, playtime in our fenced yard, or even a trip to the dog park. Most importantly, they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, cuddles, and love!
