Pet care experience
I am a dedicated dog lover, with a long list of "god-doggers," that I have cared for their whole lives. I have raised many puppies alongside friends and cannot wait to someday have my own when my time allows--but for now, I'll gladly treat your dog as my own. Please reach out if you're looking for someone to care for your pet like it's family. I am comfortable with on or off leash dogs, have experience in training and will work with lots of varieties--whatever your dog needs, I will accommodate. I love to have an adventure buddy to bring along on my walks and hikes, or am able to stay home and care for senior dogs or those who don't require as much energy exertion. Both my family dogs lived until 17 and have experience with senior and puppies alike. What to expect when your dog hangs out with me: lots of attention, long walks, fris and ball play, socialization and lots of photos of your dog enjoying their day!
Reviews
Katie is a fantastic dog sitter and will love on your pup as much as they can stand. Katie is very conscientious about updates and will make sure that your pup stays in their normal routine. She can handle all kinds, from the couch potato to the adventure dog that needs to run around. Basically the best home away from home you could ask for!
There is no more loving dog mama then Katie! Though she doesn't have a pup herself she is always surrounded by fun loving dogs. I personally have a lab puppy who Katie has taken on many walks and playdates all over town. She is GREAT with her and my pup loves Katie so much (sometimes I think more than me!). She is trustworthy, responsible, and so loving. She will take amazing care of your pup and likely take him or her on a really fun adventure! Couldn't recommend Katie more.
I have a spicy little chihuahua who I rescued. I don’t trust a lot of people to take care of him because he has a few quirks and can be nervous around new dogs and people. Since he is so tiny and could get lost or injured I also always look for a sitter who is extremely responsible. Katie helps him stay calm and confident and I trust her to take care of him in all sorts of different situations because she is so attentive to what I tell her about his needs. I have seen her interact with him many times and it is safe to say she’s one of his favorite people because she is very in tune with dog behaviors!
Katie will love your animals like they are her own. From overnights to dog walks, your dogs will think that Katie is the greatest. Would 100% recommend Katie, and my dogs look forward to my next vacation when they can hang with Katie.

I have lots of experience staying at friends homes to care for their dogs and have an easily adaptable lifestyle so that your pets day to day isn't disrupted. I believe in maintaining as much "normal" for them as I can so as not to add any stress to them being without mom and/or dad around.
Information Katie F. would like to know about your pet
You know your dog best--to guarantee the best experience possible, any information is welcome. Special habits, likes/dislikes, etc. I love to know what your dog responds to (certain calls, signals, treats or not) as well as any quirks that they may have. Like us, each dog is unique and special--help me to learn their personality with any additional information! I want them to have the best time possible.
A typical day
The best part about Jackson is the access to dog-friendly walks. We will adventure along the river, up the mountains or just wander around the neighborhood--depending on what your pup specifically needs! I love to play games with the dogs, work on socialization and am great at getting the ya-ya's out. We can often be found wandering around eploring new scents and places--ideally, i love going places where the dogs can safely be off leash. I do also have a big fenced in backyard !
