Dog Loving, Happy Student Athlete!
Pet care experience
Being born and raised in a house with no less than 5 dogs running around at any one time, I quickly developed my love for animals under the loving watch of my Mom, a former dog breeder and vet student turned crazy dog Mom! We were fortunate enough to have pigs, chinchillas, guinea pigs, cats, rabbits, etc. etc. so I learned to love and appreciate animals of all kinds, with my heart ultimately being captured by our sweet pups. I have now had the opportunity to watch animals from 200 lb tortoises to 20+ chickens and loved every second of it. As a former Division I soccer player at Yale, I now train for triathlons, so if your pup is active and enjoys walks/runs, I definitely have you covered! I am currently working on my master's degree online, so I study from home and have a flexible schedule that allows for ample walks and spoiling your pup!
Reviews
Katie is awesome and so is her dog Lu! Munchkins felt right at home and immediately started playing with Lu. I knew she was in great company while Katie was taking care of her. Can’t wait til next time!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced-in yard with turf in the back and front. Pets are welcome inside and will spend the majority of time with me where I work at my desk, although we definitely have an open-door policy in our home, so he/she will be free to roam in and out to explore and for potty breaks, if you believe this will be a good protocol for your pet!

Information Katie F. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any social or behavioral considerations, as well as food allergies or any particular fears/aversions that I can consider while spending time with your pup!
A typical day
As an active, outdoor person, I love cruising around my neighbor or yours, letting your pup sniff new smells and explore new routes. We are always up for a trip to the beach or a day at the pup park if you request it!

Availability
I am currently studying for my master's degree, which is completely 100% online so I work from home for 8-12+ hours every day. I am super flexible and available, happy to make accommodations that suit crazy schedules! In general, I am an early riser and enjoy getting out for early morning runs, which I am happy to bring your dog with me on! Lunch walks are essential, so I can assure your pup will get plenty of exercise if they need it!
