Pet care experience

Student trying to have fun w/ dogs

I love caring for animals of any kind: bunnies, cats, birds, fish, ferrets, and dogs! I was always the first person called when friends or family needed a pet sitter! I love animals and helped with my two family dogs for over 14 years prior to them very sadly passing away, along with our 3 family cats and our new puppy addition!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure to allow dogs with room to roam on their leaches while also making sure they walk on the opposite side of the street from cars and don’t have too much room to where they can run after cars, people, other dogs, etc. I am about 5’10 and work out so I have a good amount of strength to keep dogs who like to pull close and safe near me. I also love cats, mine (Potato) is very cuddly but has also had some health issues so I am quite well at giving all kinds of medications to cats (and dogs) while making sure they get even more love! Dogs and cats both are awesome, and since I am a student, if I am doing house sitting or a longer drop-in visit, I often read to the animals while I do school work, so they are still getting attention!

House Sitting • Aug 28, 2026

Katie was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated throughout the entire sitting, which gave me great peace of mind. She did an amazing job with the dogs, and her communication from start to finish was excellent. I could tell they were well cared for and in great hands. I would definitely recommend Katie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter!

House Sitting • Aug 10, 2024

This was my first time using Rover and Katie did a wonderful job! Not only was she flexible and on time, she was absolutely great and patient with my ultra difficult chihuahua. Most people would have walked out but Katie assured me that he will be okay and he did fine! I would definitely have her house sit my dog in the future! Thank you Katie!!

Katie was fantastic! She was quick to respond in a short notice and my pup had a great time with her. She gave him lots of walks, cuddles, treats, and attention that an any puppy would want. Katie also sent me updates and pictures and I would definitely use her again.

If possible, let me know what energy type your dog is so I can prepare to give them the best walks possible. Additionally, if your dog has any allergies so I can ensure to avoid them! For example, my cat is allergic to poultry so all his food and treats need to be seafood! On the same note, please let me know if I can bring some treats for your dogs or if they are on a diet and cannot have extra food throughout the day!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
