Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide drop-in visits and walks in your home so pets can remain in their familiar environment. I require a meet and greet prior to accepting new clients to ensure a good fit for everyone. I share my home with one friendly indoor cat, Blake (age 7), who is up to date on vet care and preventative treatments. Any pets in my care are never left unattended outside. Most of my clients are cats, which allows me to provide focused, low-stress, and reliable care.

Katie was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly responsive, kind, and attentive. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos. I had complete peace of mind knowing my kitty was in good hands, and it was clear he genuinely enjoyed his visits with her!

If you love your pets.. BOOK WITH KATIE! She is 5 stars for a reason! I was so worried about leaving my cat for a few days but Katie made both me and my cat feel the most comfortable. Katie is extremely thorough with her level of attention and care, super friendly, and went above and beyond with caring for my house as well. My cats toys got lost in our move, and she even offered to bring her own. I can’t say enough good things!

Katie did a phenomenal job caring for our 2 cats for 2 weeks. I was nervous about leaving them for so long, but she put my mind at ease with her responsiveness, detailed updates, and proactive communication about issues (like when one cat was especially anxious and not eating). It is clear Katie loves cats, and I so appreciate that she took her time getting to know our kitties and interacting with them on every visit. Highly recommend!

Schedule

Because I provide mostly full-time care, I work best with clients who have some flexibility in scheduling. This allows me to coordinate visits efficiently while still meeting your pet’s needs. Adjustments are typically minimal, and only occasionally up to two hours.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Katie can host up to 6 drop-ins per day
I like to learn about your pet’s favorite toys, activities, routines, and any unique quirks so I can provide care that feels familiar and comfortable. Please share any allergies or medical considerations as well. For all home visits, I require a reliable way to access your property for each scheduled visit to ensure consistent and safe care.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
