Dog lover since 1997

Pet care experience

Hello there! My name is Katie G. I am current college student and a lifetime dog lover. I participated in 4-H throughout high school and learned how to properly train and care for dogs. I grew up with two Golden Labradors and a West Highland Terrier, so I am accustomed to both big and small dogs. I have been walking and sitting since I was 16 and have a lot of experience. I am very flexible so whatever instructions you have for me I can absolutely do. Let me know how often you want updates, I live taking pictures of the pups! This is the best job I’ve ever had, I can’t believe I get paid to hang out with dogs every day! I promise I’ll take great care of your best friend!

Katie is the best! I never have to worry when leaving my dog in her care. She’s communicative, professional, warm, and always leaves our home better than she found it. Can’t recommend her enough

We absolutely love Katie, and are so happy that she was available again to take care of our dog and cat! She is so great with them, especially our pup who has separation anxiety and takes a while warming up to people. Katie kept us in the loop with so many sweet photos while we were gone, and she left our home just as clean as when we left. We can’t wait to have Katie take care of our pets again soon! Thanks so much Katie!!
