Dog Lover ready to spoil your dog!

Pet care experience

Hi! I know how stressful it can be leaving your pup with a complete stranger, but you can be assured that your dog will be treated like family when staying with our family! I have been walking and watching dogs for over 10 years in the D.C. area and absolutely love meeting & caring for pups! I work from home so I am able to be with your dog supervised all day! My pup Chloe gets along with all dogs, but she's a little old lady so we can only host other dogs that are calm. I keep my calendar up to date on here and everything that says available is available. I take my reservations very seriously and have never had to cancel on a Rover sit before. My calendar does book up very quickly these days so the earlier you can request, the better. Look forward to meeting your pup! -Katie

Fantastic! Great communicator. I felt at ease leaving my pup with Katie and didn’t worry about it at all.

Always grateful to have someone so trustworthy sit Quincy. She even was accommodating to our pick up time being delayed.

I’m so thankful for Katie! She made me feel absolutely at ease leaving my dog with her. I received plenty of updates with pictures and I appreciated that she asked all the right questions to make sure Quincy was safe and well taken care of.

Information Katie B. would like to know about your pet

What is the energy level of your dog? We can only accommodate low energy, calm dogs. My old lady doesn’t like dogs that are higher energy or younger dogs that try to jump/play with her. Does your dog have any special needs? Medication, etc. Does your dog sleep through the night? Sleep is important to us so we only take dogs that are able to sleep through the night. We do allow dogs in the bed if allowed by owners. Is your dog potty trained? Dog must be potty trained in order to stay with us. If your dog tends to mark, we cannot accommodate without doggy diapers. Does your dog have separation anxiety? We cannot accommodate dogs with separation anxiety.

A typical day

We will go on walks around the neighborhood! We can also go to the dog park if your dog likes them. I have 3 within my building/walking distance of my place. I work from home so plenty of time to spend with your pup, but I do have meetings so I cannot provide constant attention for younger dogs or dogs with anxiety.
