Pet care experience

Walks, Snuggles, Tail Wags! 🐾

Hi, I’m Katie! 🐾 I’m a full-time teacher who loves spending my free time caring for animals. I grew up with pets and currently have a dog of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat your home with the utmost respect because I know I’m not just caring for a pet—I’m caring for a member of your family. As a fellow pet parent, I understand how important trust, safety, and consistency are. I grew up with animals and currently have a dog of my own, so I’m confident in handling daily routines, providing comfort, and creating a calm, loving environment for your pet while you’re away.

Katie has stayed with our 2 dogs & a cat multiple times. The dogs love her, she takes great care of everyone, and we’re very very comfortable having Katie in our home.

Katie did a great job with our German Shepherd! It's hard to find a good, trustworthy sitter so it was nice to be able to enjoy our trip and not worry about what was going on back at home knowing Katie was there!

Katie did a great job keeping our overactive pups company! She helped us enjoy a relaxing weekend away without worrying about our kitties and dogs :)

I want to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and understood while we’re together. Please let me know about any special routines, dietary needs, medications, or favorite activities they enjoy. It’s also helpful to know if your pet is shy, has any triggers, or doesn’t do well around other animals or people—anything that helps me provide the best care possible. I’m also more than happy to schedule a meet-and-greet before any service so your pet (and you!) feel completely comfortable
