Loving Your Pets Like My Own!

Pet care experience

Hello, I'm Katie, a reliable pet sitter with over a decade of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. Whether you need someone to look after your furry friend while you're away on vacation or a regular pet sitter while you're at work, I'm here to help. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, and small mammals, having rescued animals and taken care of pets for family and friends. I currently have one cat, but have experience owning and caring for dogs as well. As a pet lover myself, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and reliable to care for your pets. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, providing them with all the love and attention they need while you're away.

Had an absolutely wonderful experience with Katie who took care of our cats for 9 days. From the moment we connected, her communication was prompt and clear, which immediately put us at ease. She sent us pictures every day, provided other daily updates, and was very prompt when communicating about things like their feeding schedule, sleeping, playing habits, etc. One of our kitties puked on the bed, and Katie immediately alerted us and cleaned up her mess. She also completely cleaned the kitty's litter boxes while we were away. We have had a lot of mediocre experiences with past sitters so having someone reliable like Katie to take care of our kitties has been a godsend! I cannot recommend Katie enough to fellow pet owners who are seeking reliable and compassionate care for their pets!

Katie was the absolute best! She treated my pups like kings and was incredibly responsive throughout my time away.
