Pet care experience

Love dogs and miss caring for them

I’ve had a family dog since I was 8 years old. I have extensive experience caring for and fostering dogs; I even had one for 7 months! I loved her dearly, cared for her daily, and made sure she went to a perfect forever home. I unfortunately do not have enough length of time to foster another dog but want to keep dogs in my life <3

House Sitting • Jun 01, 2026

We have used Katie many times to watch our pup! She is always very communicative and has been flexible and understanding when we've picked up our dog both early and late. Katie is our go-to sitter!

Dog Walking • May 27, 2026

Katie did a great job walking our dog. She was punctual. Communication was terrific. Most importantly , our dog was comfortable with her and had a really good walk. I would use her again.

Truly the best! Katie spend the time to listen to instructions and concerns (feeding and concerns of being shy/hiding) and made sure to send daily photos, but also followed up with photos/videos to address the concerns I had. Señor Bojangles has stayed at other let resorts and came back completely scared and with stomach issues; two days with Katie and the concern was perhaps he was okay not even coming back home! Thank you so much, great communication and care 10000% recommend! :)

Katie took such great care of our dog, Cookie. She was flexible with our tight drop off window which was very helpful. Communication was great

Katie was great with Penny! We had to adjust out pickup/dropoff time and she accommodated no problem. Katie kept great communication with us and provided picture updates as well.

I love to play with dogs and go on walks as much as I can. Given that I work from home your dog would be well attended to and I would regularly play with it throughout the day!

Let me know if your dog has any specific behaviors that I should know about. I love dogs of any age and am happy to care for a dog that may be considered more challenging as long as I am aware of it from the start.
