Pet care experience
My name is Katie and I have recentlymoved back to the Ohio area from Chicago. I was previously working for a vet clinic as a veterinarian technician for 3yrs.I have an English bulldog named Rocky who is my absolute world.I also have 2 cats, 2 birds and a blue tongue skink. I've always loved animals and I'm eager to help in any way that I can! I have experience dog/cat sitting and giving medication. In addition, I have hosted fundraisers for my local animal shelter. I'm willing to work with scheduling days and times. Whether they need a long walk, an extra potty-break, or just a few extra belly scratches. I'm here to help! (Please make sure you go over payment before booking.) Thank you, Katie Please message me for more scheduling details. I have experience with not only our canine and feline friends but I do have experience with exotics(pocket pets,rabbits, fish, certain reptiles, birds ect) I work with exotics daily at the clinic I am working for. I would love to talk more about this in person!
Reviews
Katie was an AMAZING cat sitter. She was reassuring and provided great updates. Highly highly recommend!
Katie C. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Kindest sitter ever! ? We booked multiple house visits while we were away. Katie helped us immensely by consistent check ins and great communication throughout each mini visit with the dogs! One of our little pups was really shy, and her background as a vet tech really came in handy to make sure she helped our pup eat and drink water throughout the day. I definitely am planning to book her again! ✨?
Katie was amazing, our cat is normally shy around new people but she took to Katie right away! Katie left out new toys everyday and sent videos and pictures

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Providing trust and a safe environment is my number one rule. I always like a meet and greet to verbally talk about your pets needs. Things I need to know would be, do they have certain triggers that can cause anxiety or agression? Do they take any medication?If so, what do they take?How much and how to administer it? I like to know the diet they are on as well as any supplements added. The most important thing of all is that I need to have their veterinary information for emergencies. You can never be too safe!

A typical day
I'd like to get to know your pet and their routine. Usually in my house hold I have a senior dog named Rocky who LOVES his routines. A typical day for us is getting his breakfast prepared which include his medications. After that we go on a stroll outside for a potty break and to breath in some fresh air. After his nice early morning breakfast and walk he's ready for a nap. By that time our two cats Margaret (which is a long haired persian) and Meowtini (who is a slanky silly sphynx) morning pets, food and water. I then make sure our birds Jasper(pineapple conure) Hobbs( our 1 legged blue Quaker parrot) have fresh water,food and millet. They also have outside play time to stretch their wings, sing and dance. That usually is my routine for my lovely furry,bald and feathery friends.
