Trusted Dog & Cat Care Near Boonsbo

I've been caring for animals for most of my life and understand that pets are family. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and caring when you can't be with your pets. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, companionship, medication administration, or simply a check-in while you're away, I'm happy to help. I currently work full-time and offer pet care primarily during evenings and weekends, making me a great option for vacation pet care, weekend trips, and families who need reliable visits outside of traditional work hours. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for. I provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, safety and comfort are my top priorities. In a client's home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, walks, routines, and any special needs. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their normal routine is maintained. I pay close attention to each pet's behavior and comfort level and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while remaining safe and secure at all times.

Katie was awesome. We had a meet and greet that went well and Katie was very easy going and taking in all our instructions and asking great questions. She is extremely responsive and communicated frequently and efficiently the day of the drop in. She left great feedback and provided some cute photos from their day together. I definitely recommend Katie and will use her for future visits.
