An Airbnb, but for your dog!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Katie & I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own! I am an experienced dog walker. I’ve been cultivating my growing understanding of behavior, breeds, and training as well as a loyal client base over the past several years. I have experience giving insulin to cats, and using all kinds of leashes. You can think of me as your best friends other best friend, and you’ll get lots of pictures and updates about what we’re up to.

I never have anything to worry about when Katie takes care of my Great Dane puppy - he's always so happy to see her. Katie goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is living his best life in her care, and always sends updates of their adventures.

We are very pleased with the service Katie provided and we're confident that our puppy was under great care while we were away, we will absolutely be booking her again to care for our Great Dane!

She is amazing! Had to book this last minute and she was super easy to work with and took excellent care of my two cats. She also took awesome pictures - would recommend 10/10!

She is awesome with our high energy dog, and we love all the updates and pictures of dog park visits, snuggles, and treats.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a partially fenced-in backyard & a lead for outside time. Inside I have space for a Kennel or crate if your dog requires it, please bring it along for the stay, otherwise, they are welcome to the couch, the floor, the bed, or anywhere else they feel comfortable. I recommend house sitting for pups who would be most comfortable in their own environment. For both services- pictures and updates will be provided on a regular basis & on request! Thanks for reading

Information Katie B. would like to know about your pet

Before hosting or sitting, I’d like to know all about your pup! What commands do they know or are you working on? Do they have any allergies or history of aggressive behavior? What are their favorite toys & treats? How are they with other dogs and kids? Can they go off leash? What sort of routine do you typically keep together? Are they more relaxed or playful? How much exercise do they need? Are they reactive to anything? All breeds welcome!

A typical day

I'm located half a mile from the dog park & of course, there are all the Portland Trails to be explored! If your pup does well off-leash we will spend time exploring Robinson Woods, Hinkley Park, & other dog-friendly trails.

I work from home M-F & am off on the weekends. I love to start the day with a morning walk & even better if we can hit the trails!
