Pet care experience

I am currently in veterinary technician school working to become a licensed veterinary technician. I have also been working as a veterinary assistant for the past 5 years in a small animal veterinary clinic. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in Animal Science in 2024. I am confident with all animal temperaments, am able to administer medications, and provide the best possible pet care. I strive for clear communication with pet owners while they are away to make their pet as comfortable as possible.

Katie is fantastic! She is an excellent communicator, reliable, provides detailed updates, and spends quality time bonding with and caring for your pets (even if they're not-so-friendly around "strangers.") We've worked with Katie several times now and she's been awesome every time - complete peace of mind when traveling.

Katie stopped by to visit our senior cat. She took lots of great pictures and made sure we had peace of mind while we were away. Definitely will use her services again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
