Pet care experience

Insured & WFH Animal Lover!

I treat every animal as if they’re my own! I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, and horses since I was a teenager. I grew up with large dogs - having 3 Labrador’s in my lifetime. I also grew up with multiple cats. I currently have two cats of my own with my husband, named Ozzy and Willis. Family and friends have relied on me to care for their animals with the utmost attention. I always make sure I know everything about your pet to ensure proper care. I’m always willing to meet virtually or in-person to see if it is a mutual fit for care. I also have a car which allows more flexibility and peace of mind in case of an emergency.

Katie was great with our 2 yr old German Shepard for a first walk. She was prompt, professional, and Betty really did well with her. Katie is now our go- to dog walker!

Katie is phenomenal. She has been patient with my reactive dog. I know Bindi is in great hands when Katie drops by

Katie was fabulous, she took great care of Jasper & Joe. She sent 3 messages a day, along with a few pics. Messages & pics were incredibly helpful in my not worrying about Jasper & Joe. Overall, a great experience. I would highly recommend Katie for your pet needs.

Katie is absolutely wonderful! I never worried when I was away because I knew my dog and kitty were in such caring hands. The daily updates and photos were so comforting, and I came home to happy relaxed pets and a very clean home. She definitely provided me with peace of mind while I was away.

Second time Katie watched our pup, and she was great again. Took great care of our dog and our home!
