Information Katie B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I have experience with insulin injections and other special needs such as working with deaf and blind dogs. I’m happy to accommodate!

A typical day

Long walks, playing catch, and running through the sprinkler on a hot day! My dog loves play dates and would surly tire out your pup! I am very comfortable playing with animals indoors and outdoors, if they need to be active. As for elderly pets, I am very understanding of their boundaries and needs and I am willing to just keep them company!

Pet care experience

What sets me apart: 🐶 Extensive Experience: I’ve cared for everything from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I’ve also fostered three dogs and adopted a rescue pup named Millie. 💉 Specialized Care: Comfortable with special needs dogs, including those who are blind, deaf, or require medication (including injections). 🏡 Family Environment: My two children (ages 11 & 13) have grown up with dogs and love helping out. Your dog will truly be part of the family during their stay. 📅 Flexible Scheduling: Offering home boarding on select weekdays and most weekends—happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible! Let’s make sure it’s the right fit—contact me to schedule a meet-and-greet today!

Katie did a fabulous job with our dog Jazzy. Katie was so responsive and easy to communicate with! She provided daily pictures showing our girl settling in. Jazzy was well cared for enjoyed her stay. It was an added bonus that Jazzy got to spend quality time with another dog and children. We look forward to using Katie and family again!

Katie was amazing with my baby girl. Katie had her eating and she was able to get my pup to come out of her shell. I was so delighted to see my baby girl feeling comfortable with Katie. She had a beautiful and welcoming home, allowing my for pup to feel safe and comfortable. I would definitely use Katie again, if her time permits.
