The Best Care for Your Best Friend!

Pet care experience

Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Katie and I'm 29 years old (almost 30 - eeek). Nice to e-meet you! Rover is almost too good to be true. I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, I love them all. I'm responsible and trustworthy and I can even send you fun pics and flicks of your pup (or cat) during our time together. I offer daily walks, daytime stays and drop-in visits. Cat care can be provided as well! I'm also more then willing to set up a meet and greet to get better acquainted with you and your pets! I'm resident of Sandy Hook, Connecticut - My boyfriend and I just bought our first home. I'm ultimately looking for some new fur friends and a little extra cash! If my calendar shows as unavailable for any dates you need, you can still send me a message as sometimes I can work with requests and be flexible! We also can work with the rates and come up with a custom cost that you’re comfortable with. I love dogs and really every type of animal there is! I have over 18 years of experience caring for my friend's and family's dogs, cats and other animals. It has been so enriching and fulfilling to my life. My family currently has a male Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Oliver (Ollie for short) who is a little over seven years old and two brother orange tabby cats named Milo and Otis who just turned six.

Katie informed me of how my cats were doing while I was away and sent plenty of photos. I had no concerns while I was away plan to use her again in the future!

Katie was an excellent sitter for my 3 cats. She Alway sent pictures of the cats on each of her visits. Was kind and understanding of any requests or needs the cats had. Took the time to get to know them and they took to her quickly, even our shy cat. I would book her again In a heart beat and would recommend others do as well.

Safety, trust & environment

I have been around dogs and cats my entire life - I almost feel like I can relate to them better than most people (haha). I have volunteered at many animal shelters and I have always loved every animal I come across! I am a flexible, hard-working individual who will always keep you and your pet's needs a priority. I am looking to build experience in this industry since I have always had such a passion. I can guarantee I have a love unlike no other to take great care of your loved ones! I always enjoy having animals around and giving them the same love and care they show towards us. You can have total peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by an experienced and caring individual. I look forward to meeting you and your dog (or other fur babies)!

Information Katie B. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds from small to large size. Answering the following questions will help me to provide the best experience for your Fur Baby: -What is their day look like (daily routine)? -Does he/she has any history of aggression? -Does he/she need any special care?(Allergy,limited activities,feeding,etc..) -Is he/she up-to-date all vaccinations? -Is he or she spayed/neutered? -What do they like to do / play with? -How often should we go out on walks and to the bathroom? -When are the feeding times? -Where do they like to sleep? -Can I give them treats?

A typical day

I’m an active person. I love to be outdoors, all year round! We can go for a casual walk or energizing walk and long or short. We can stop at one of the parks in the area and play with a frisbee or ball or just run around. Open to any recommendations for areas your dog loves! Their happiness is always what’s most important.
