Pet care experience
Extremely Pet Friendly!
Hi! Thank you for checking out my profile. My name is Katie, I have been sitting through Rover(Dog Vacay) since 2012 but have always been in a pet friendly lifestyle. I have experience with special needs, post surgical, geriatric, puppies (pre and post vaccination), medications, spoiled and unsocialized dogs. All ages and sizes are welcome in my home. We have two dogs, A 13 year old who is mostly indifferent but sometimes jumps in to play, and a 2 year old who will be every dog’s best friend. We are a military family newish to Florissant and love being a part of the community. I have an 12 year old daughter who is homeschooled so your dogs will be extra taken care of as she is the most wonderful assistant. We hope to be your next sitter!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Katie was amazing! She kept me up to date when I left my dog with her for multiple days, was conscious of my preferences and suggestions. My dog seemed disappointed that I picked her up, so she clearly enjoyed her stay!
So many thanks for Katie! I’ve been very occupied with work and traveling for work. I get the pictures and we always see Scooter in his routine at his second home 💚. Katie is a god send! Our First sitter ever, first time booking with Rover and she and her family have been the perfect match for Scooter since his puppy days. Thank you Katie! 💚 💚
Fergal had a great time at Katie and Edward’s. They took such good care of him and he was a happy tired dog when I picked him up. I got plenty of updates from them! Love seeing pics of dogs having fun! I’ve already booked again with them 😊
They took great care of my baby! Sent updates regularly! My dog had a few meds he’s currently taking which they administered & kept me updated on his symptoms giving me peace of mind :)
Best sitter ever 😘😘😘
Our dog Olive can be shy around new people and surroundings, but Katie was very patient with her and introduced her to the unfamiliar areas gradually. I appreciate that playtime is always supervised and Katie knows which of her guests play well together.

Schedule
Pet care is my full time profession. I plan far in advance for time off and appointments and work around my clients’ scheduled drop offs and pick ups. If clients are late for pick ups, it may result in rescheduling that pick up to where it is convenient for my schedule. Saturdays and Sundays, I only schedule pick ups and drop offs for morning (7am - 10am) and evening (6pm - 8pm) Those days are family time :)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat boarders like I treat my own dogs. My 12 year old daughter is the best assistant and will happily spoil the heck out of your dogs. We pride ourselves in regular sanitation of common areas and daily clean ups of pet waste to keep dogs safe. Even with cleaning, upper respiratory infections can happen in a boarding environment and are the responsibility of the owners so please make sure vaccines are up to date and do not bring your pups if they are showing symptoms. For accidents, I also have my own Pet Care Insurance in addition to the Rover Guarantee.
Pets
A typical day
My daughter loves to play fetch and run around with the dogs in our backyard. We have an assortment of toys and puzzles available to our boarders. We are comfortable with all breeds and energy levels so if you have a dog that requires heavy stimulation, that is not a problem. Just let us know.
