Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs since I was 5 years old. In the past 15 years I've been the go to pet sitter for my friends and family. I am a mom of three children, so kid friendly pets will get lots of love from this happy family. I work at my kids school from 8:30-3:00, so my work days are short and I can spend lots of time carrying for your pet. I have two lab mix dogs of my own. I took one through training and she got first place, so I am very patient and can assist with continuing any training while you are away. The other was trained before he came to me and has wonderful manners that we have kept up on. When I was a child, my dogs needed subq fluids so I do have experience with some pet meds that do go above and beyond the normal pills. I hope our family can help you feel at ease while you are away.
Reviews
Katie was excellent for watching our dog Timber! He loved playing with both people and dogs at her home and we received daily photos while we were gone. We would absolutely have Katie watch our dog again.
Katie has been wonderful for our little Yeti. We have used her twice this past month and Yeti really enjoys his stay. He is exhausted for several days after coming home from Katie and her family. Katie provided pictures everyday, as well and update on how Yeti was doing. She made it convenient for drop off and pickup, as well was flexible when our schedule shifted slightly. Yeti will await his next visit.
This was our first time boarding, our pup with a dog sitter instead of with family or in a doggy daycare. I loved that they sent me a picture every day, showing me how she was doing with a little note, and when we picked her up, she was very relaxed and not crazy hyper like she usually is when we pick her up from boarding. I would highly recommend this sitter to any of my family or friends, or anyone looking for a nice family environment for their pup while they’re away. I truly appreciated the care they gave my dog while I was gone.
Katie and her family did a great job with my big baby boy Simba. The photo of her son loving up my dog reassured me he was in good hands. You can tell the family cares about the pets in their care. I would definitely recommend her and call on her again.

I have a fully fenced yard and friendly lab mix dogs to keep your pet company. I already have a large crate if you desire to have me kennel your dog, or he/she is welcome to roam my house and enjoy the love from the gentle kids.

I currently work at my kids school from 8:30-3:00 so my work days are short. I have access to an enclosed field for letting dogs run during the winter months. My backyard is fully fenced and dogs are treated like family at my house.
