Dog sitter or walker with big yard!

Pet care experience

I’ve had at least one dog in my household since I’ve been 8 years old. It’s only been since I’ve moved to LA this past month that I’ve been dog-less so I am missing them dearly! I am currently a PhD student at USC and am looking for additional income. I grew up with labs and bulldogs and am really comfortable working with dogs of all ages and sizes. In fact, I actually worked at the canine cognition lab as an undergrad at Yale, for which I had to be trained on how to spot canine distress (it’s a lot more subtle than you would expect!). I am open to dog walking, sitting, or dog visits and have a pretty flexible schedule. I can say with the utmost confidence that your dog(s) will be in excellent care with me!

Just recently relocated and needed to find a new sitter for our tripod Molly and we found probably one of the best sitters we have ever had!! Katie was great during the meet and greet, she and Molly got along which was a relief! First day of sitting Molly was a bit skittish but Katie's background came in handy she gave her space but provided love and support from afar. Eventually Molly was her normal cuddle bug energetic self and the rest is history. Katie kept us in the loop from the beginning to the and we appreciated all the photos and videos. Katie is a hidden gem in this area and we are so grateful for the love and attention she gave our furbaby! Our next trip or long day away from home will definitely consist of Katie spending time with Molly!
