Katycakes Doggy Sitter

Pet care experience

I have a passion for animals and dogs are my favorite. I have had several Dogs in my lifetime and have dog sat for several also. Additionally, I worked on a farm in high school taking care of the animals. I understand that your dog is your family and will treat him or her as such! I volunteer with the Potcakes in turks and Caicos! Potcakes are official breeds of turks and caicos islands. They are sort of like strays, but some belong to houses, usually living outside. They are called potcakes because they were traditionally fed the food caked at the bottom of the pot from leftover cooking. When I visit I walk the dogs at the rescue, feed the strays, and buy lots of merhcendise to support the rescue.

Katie watched my Jack Russ mix for 1 day/night while we went to a wedding. She was very cordial, attentive, and responsible. She sent pictures and communicated with us. Her location was so convenient, we are excited to have someone close by!

Katie is one of the most loving and caring people that I know. I have been best friends with her since we were 14 years old and she has always had a special place in her heart for animals. In high school, she worked on a farm near our home town. She knew from that, even before this time, she connected so naturally and deeply with the Earth's furry friends. In her free time, she sends me adorable Instagram photos and reels of dogs. She absolutely adores them! They light her up and make her shine when she sees them running around and playing in the park. I can not think of a more fitting and loving pet caregiver than Katie. She is a fantastic person and very responsible! You will not be disappointed.

Katie babysat my Aston (7yo) Husky for almost one year 5 days a week! She is very caring and attentive to Aston 🐕 , she always greeted him with his favorite treat 🍖. They went on walks in the park, played fetch 🎾. Too much fun for my Aston that I felt he didn’t want to leave Katie’s place. 😁 I had to move back to California but the best happy memories of our time stayed in Philadelphia Thank you again Kaitie ❤️🐶
