I spent a week with Katie last summer, and saw firsthand what I already knew - that she is very responsible and conscientious in her care of animals. She has had her own pets for many years and treats them like family. She is so gentle and loving with them, and smart about their needs. I have cats - she adores them too, and they love having her come over and give them attention. To summarize, she's very responsible and loves animals.

Katie is a dependable person in general as well as a caring, devoted animal lover! She shows this not only through how well she cares for her own beloved dog Motley and cat Missy (whom I met a few times, including while she walked Motley), but how she interacts with other people's pets. When Katie first met my cat, who is fearful of people she doesn't know, she got right down on the floor with her, spoke to her gently, and quickly gained her trust. With years of experience walking and caring for her own dog and her love of all dogs, Katie will be a great dog sitter.
