Responsible Animal Lover!

I have been a dog owner and lover my whole life. I have experience with all sorts of pets as such as various reptiles, chinchillas, guinea pigs and more. I have fostered dogs through Brother Wolf and AHS for years. I also cared for and bottle fed an orphaned piglet until he was ready for life back on the farm. Although I don’t own cats due to allergies in my family, I love to spend time with them when I can! I am open to all sorts of animals in my home or yours. I currently have two dogs, Telly and Augie, who are both around 25-30 pounds. They LOVE having other dogs come to visit.

Katie is amazing - she was so great with Eddy and Wembley and I know they received so much love and care from her while I was away. I would recommend her to anyone!

Katie was great and communicative. There were some issues that happened on property from the cold weather which she pointed out. That was great for me to get it resolved while I was gone. My kitty cat was happy. I would book with Katie again if I'm in the area.

Katie gets 5 stars. She was really good at communicating and took such great care of our fur babies. We felt they were in great hands. We will definitely use her again when we will need a sitter. Thank you Katie.

Katie is great! We were anxious to leave our 2 cats (our first time since COVID) for a week, but Katie took great care of them. She sent beautiful photos, made sure they had food/water, played with them, and even checked our mail. When we go out of town again, Katie will definitely be our first pick!

Schedule

I am a teacher, so I am out of the house from 8-4 every day. We typically do a short walk in the mornings and then take a nice long walk as soon as I get home.
