Katie took excellent care of our animals and our home while we were away. She is not only very competent and conscientious in her work, but also a wonderful person. Our dog is uneasy when we are away, and Katie’s calm and kind vibe kept her feeling secure and happy. Our scaredy cat even came out of her hiding place to see Katie, which is as high a compliment one could have😊 We were able to enjoy carefree time away, knowing that Katie was here for us. Thanks, Katie!

Katie is fantastic! Our little 15 year old Maltese is very attached to me and not consistently friendly and not social but she warmed up to Katie and got comfortable quickly and easily I am sure because Katie is clearly very caring. Katie asked at the time of booking about Yuki’s preferences,, special toys, food, medications and anything relevant to help Yuki in our absence. It helped me get comfortable quickly with Katie and to know that Yuki was on good hands I highly recommend Katie should you need a very responsible and caring dog sitter. I am so happy to have found her!!

I feel Katie is a very responsible person around pets,I trust her around my pets. Any time we go for walks and run into a dog, she gets down on the ground and gives them all her undivided attention. She a very kind and loving soul to all animals.

Katie is a natural with pets. Every time I see her with a cat or dog that has never met her, they warm up to her right away. It’s pretty amazing! I trust animal instincts to sense things us humans can’t and if that’s any indication then animals see Katie as a tender, loving & trustworthy soul. From what I know of Katie, I’d have to agree 110% I would always feel comfortable and confident when she’s caring for my pets. They definitely love her 🥰💕
