Caring and committed pet companion

Pet care experience

Having grown up with Labrador retrievers, I know pets really are part of the family! In addition to caring for my own furry friends for 15+ years, I've provided house and pet sitting services for cats and dogs formally for five years. I prioritize open communication and transparency with clients to meet pets' unique needs, with lots of love.

Katie is sweet, kind, and compassionate. We have booked with her on several walks! My partner and I are are travel RNs who work long shifts. It can be stressful finding a walker in a new area, but as soon as we met Katie, our minds were at ease and we knew our dog Prescott would be well looked after. Katie is very personable, and attentive, I highly recommend her to watch your dog!! I can’t wait to rebook with her again soon. Thank you thank you, so much for helping us with P!

Katie is the BEST! She was wonderful with our dog, communicating with us and felt 100% comfortable with her staying in our home.

Katie took such great care of my cat and apartment while I was gone. She’s very communicative and really made me feel at ease leaving Midnight. I highly recommend Katie!

Katie was so attentive and caring, and she went above and beyond to make sure my cat felt super loved and got all of her needs met. She also communicated with me super clearly and consistently. My cat absolutely adored having such a great buddy while I was gone!! :-)

Safety, trust & environment

I am a detail oriented, conscientious sitter who prioritizes clients' needs and preferences. I have years of pet sitting experience that includes feeding, walking, bathing, playing, administering medicine, and picking up after dogs and cats. If clients are vacationing, I am comfortable spending overnights (house-sitting) with animals to ensure their safety and comfort.

Information Katie D. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to accommodate any special needs, dietary restrictions, or quirks and personality traits of your pets. Let me know if there is anything in particular I should be aware of regarding your pet's day to day routines, interactions with other people and/or animals, etc.

A typical day

A typical day with your fur baby will be spent exploring favorite walking paths, running and playing fetch (if that's your pet's jam), meals and/or snacks according to schedule, and lots of scratches and cuddles!
