Your pets pet buddy❤️

Pet care experience

We will spend our days going for walks, to the water, car rides or just hanging at the house. Our outings during the day depend on the pet that I’m hanging out with. I have been a dog foster for over 10 years. I’ve fostered a litter of 12 puppies, 3 huskies, a Great Dane, several border collies and more. I’m interested in dog sitting your pet or pets in my home or yours. I will bring your pet out as many times as requested. I’m happy to walk your dog, play ball bring him to the dog park or just snuggle on the couch with him/her. I’m quite active, there’s a good chance your dog will be tagging along on a hike with me. I’d love for your friend to join me for an adventure. Your pet will be my priority. Your dog will come with me wherever I go if the weather cooperates. I’m happy to hang out at the house if the pets prefer ( I always love a good excuse to relax and read a book). I walk the dogs several times a day. I’m a runner so if the dog is high energy.,.. I’m very good at keeping up with them. When I house sit, I stay at your house full tome. ( much like a hotel).. I enjoy cleaning and organizing and I’m happy to do whatever needs to be done around the home while you’re away ( cleaning, maintaining the lawn and the pool). I will do my best to treat your pets the same way I’d hope you would have treated mine. I will walk high energy jobs for as long as the need or sit with older pets who are happy just to have some company.

We had a situation up come and we had to leave town for a night, but couldn’t leave our 10 week old puppy at the kennel because she’s not old enough to be fully vaccinated. Katie answered our request and left our mind at ease leaving our Farrah in her care. As soon as we met Katie you could feel her gentle nature and loving personality ❤️ would not ever hesitate to leave Farrah with her again.

I literally cannot say enough good things about Katie!! Our boy tank is very timid and takes awhile to warm up and Katie was so patient and kind with him! Tank also had an injury so required extra care and Katie went above and beyond for our boy!! Definitely made us feel so much better knowing he was in such good hands!

We are 1000% happy with Katie and her services for us recently. She came and stayed at our house while we were out of country on vacation. She gave us lots of updates, sent pictures, plus she took our pooch on some new adventures. We have no doubt that she took very good care of our fur baby. As an added bonus she left our house very clean (literally even washed the dish cloth she used and not one thing in the kitchen garbage can haha) which after a couple very long travel days was such a relief. If you’re looking - we highly recommend having her look after your pets.

Katie was truly amazing. Her ability to work with a socially challenged dog experiencing a sitter for the first time was very impressive. Above and beyond in all respects.

Information Katie D. would like to know about your pet

I have taken care of many special needs/seniors and puppies. I was a dog foster for many years and I was usually asked to take care of the high needs dogs.

A typical day

I like to talk to the pet owners and come up with the best plan for their pets. I’ve babysat dogs that got carried on walks as they were elderly and I’ve watched dogs that walked 10 miles with me everyday…. Pet owners know their pets the best so I ask them what they would prefer❤️I’m here to make this an amazing experience for both the pets and their families

When your pet is with me they are my number one priority. Where I go … they go. We go for at least two walks a day if the dogs are willing and able.
