Pet care experience
This is my dream professional job, I also work for a groomer doing the bathing, nail trims, and brushing of teeth for owner and plan on extending my education to become a Groomer myself. My vision has been to work with animals for as long as I can remember but on a more positive side. When working at a vet clinic and for the animal control as an animal care technician and caring for the saddening side of the profession I realized am too soft hearted for the sad parts of the job. I lost my cat of 13 years on 11/16/16 and my heart is still healing. On January 8th, 2017, I got my Great Dane, Ancel Hades, he has been a godsend. He's amazing and smart. He also came from a home that had many animals so he is ok with any walk of life I bring in this house. I had a Dane as my childhood dog, so it's like a dream come true. I have worked at the humane society, volunteered at humane society as a teenager, and fostered for the humane society as an adult. I was exposed to many breeds/animals. I am an animal lover to the fullest. Your fur-baby would be safe with me. If you have restrictions, I will follow them. I have always followed guidelines, if given. I have a downstairs and upstairs to my home my room being upstairs. I have a very nice sized back yard where I could do lead and yard stake as its only partially fenced. If your baby requires walks every time I will do that. I prefer a housebroken dog, but who in their right mind doesn't watch a sweet PUPPY?!?! I know I will! My boy just free roams in backyard if I am back there with him and it's not busy outside. He also is walked on a leash a few times a day. I will walk your pupper anyway. Unless it's a senior who just doesn't do walks anymore. I have experience with fixed and unfixed animals and can handle it. I can and have experience administering meds orally or giving shots. I am just happy to take care of your furbaby to the best of my ability as I know they are a part of our family! I look forward to our meet and greet! You can also find my business page on Facebook under 'Diamond in the Sky Critter Sitting', for animals that are not dogs :) I welcome them, as well!

Katie was very loving and caring of my baby Moose! Her Dane and him are now best friends! She sent me pictures throughout the day and kept me updated on him at all times which made leaving him a bit easier. I will definitely be using her again in the future!
Katie did a fantastic job with my dog Zane:) She sent pictures, and gave me updates. I booked my dog's stay the day before and she was totally ready and willing to watch him for me in a crunch!
K is amazing with animals. She helped me with my two dogs when a reservation with a dog hotel fell through. She was awesome and made my dogs happy and healthy. One of my little guys was on antibiotics for a skin allergy.. K finished giving him his medicine on his schedule and she even bought dog shampoo for sensitive skin and bathed them both! By the time I got back they were both happy, healthy, and clean doggies! They loved their stay and I got updates and pictures often! I highly recommend this animal lover for pet sitting!
One of the first connections I had with Katie was her voice and willingness to act against animal cruelty. We all have a purpose we come to earth to fulfill, her purpose is to care for animals. Pet owners that love your animals like they are your babies, Katie is the fun, loving auntie while you are away.

Information Katie G. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if they’re crate trained, if they get along with cats and other dogs, if allowed on furniture, where they sleep at.
A typical day
Around my neighborhood or on short hiking trips.. dog parks make me uncomfortable due to vaccinations and irresponsible owners but if you’d like me to take them I will.
