Availability

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 :)

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.

Information Katie & Edward V. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know of any behavioral issues/quirks and important information at booking. Dogs of all ages who are not potty trained will be charged puppy rate. Dogs who mark or have accidents inside will wear belly bands or diapers to protect my home and will be crated/confined when no one is home. Medications and special needs are welcome, including injectable medication. Flea preventative and up to date vaccines are a requirement.

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.

Pet care experience

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!

I left my rhodesians with Katie over the Fourth of July. I was worried my older Rhodesian has started to spook with loud noises. I sent a thunder shirt with her and Katie reassured me she would keep her comfortable. Katie sent pics and detailed info on how she was doing. This is why I love my dogs going to her. She takes such good care of them and keeps me updated!

Olaf can be quite a handful. He gets along with other dogs and people but is very active and can get into things if you are not looking. I got updates from Katie and Olaf came home with no new quirks, he seemed very happy and actually slept past 5:30 am which I will try to keep up.

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.
