LOVE being a fur baby auntie

Pet care experience

I love walking dogs & providing personalized time with them. I enjoy nurturing every dogs different personalities & fully enjoy capturing fun experiences through photography. I do a ton of dog sitting for family & friends & enjoy snuggling & playing with their pets, it it truly makes my heart happy. I have dog sat for over 10 years in my own home as well as their homes. I work full-time, but have Sundays & Monday’s off. Usually when I dog/house sit I try to stick to the animals routine. Long or short walks whatever they need. Typically pets get me motivated to be outside & I love that about them. I work & live in Green Hills & while dog sitting I usually go home in the middle of the day to check on them (if they are at my house or if they are close to my workplace). Usually when pet sitting I still work, but make sure to take the pet on a walk before & after work. I am happy to take dogs to a dog park if they enjoy that & can provide other pet socialization (if needed) with my friends animals. I am flexible with my availability & am willing to work with you. I can’t own a pet because I rent but I fully enjoy & love giving attention to everyone else’s animals. I have dog sat for a cavalon, pit bull, golden retriever, lab, just to name a few. I grew up with animals & my love for pets continues. I look forward to the opportunity to meet & take care of your fur babies.

Chula had such a wonderful time under Katie's care. Katie is responsive, kind, and genuinely a dog lover!

Katie and her boyfriend took such amazing care of Woody!! We left him for a whole week and he has pretty intense allergies, and he looked SO good when we got back! And from all the pics we got he was clearly having the time of his life while we were gone! We joked he may not want to come home after spending the week with Katie! I’ve already rebooked for my upcoming travel. Amazing job all around! Thank you!

Katie was wonderful! She has a natural "dog-person" disposition that had Nala running straight into her arms from her first meeting. We got regular updates and pictures that made us feel comfortable that Nala was taken care of well. Will repeat for sure! ;)

Katie and her boyfriend were amazing! She was easy to communicate with and accommodating right from the first message. My sometimes shy dog bonded with Katie immediately and seems to have had a great stay. I'l definitely be looking to rebook in the future and very highly recommend Katie in the meantime!
