Caring Veterinary Assistant!

Pet care experience

15+ years experience in the veterinary industry. I am extremely knowledgeable with animal healthcare as well as knowledgeable with almost any breed you can think of. I have also worked for the local humane society, as well as doggy daycare and boarding. I have experience with training as well. HUGE advocate for positive reinforcement! I foster for The Bull Terrier Rescue Mission and frequently take in "problem dogs." I have dealt with more difficult dogs, i.e., aggression, or severe health problems. I am also very proficient with medication dispensing as my job requires this! I will take on any size dog with any behavioral issues. Any other questions feel free to contact me! I can't wait to hear from you. :)

We returned from our vacation to happy animals and are grateful for Katie's attention and care while we were away. She handled our shy dog and cat with medical needs without batting an eye. We look forward to working with Katie in the future.

Katie did a wonderful job with our two dogs! They are usually very anxious and hyper when we come back from a trip…but not this time! Katie kept in contact with us and sent pictures. She stayed at our house for a week and we are very happy that we found such a great sitter! Thank you, Katie!

Thanks to Katie for giving the pups some good mid-day love while I was out of the house for the day!

Katie was my first rover sitter ever. I was really apprehensive about having someone I didn't know watch my pup. However, after meeting with her I had such peace of mind. She was available last minute for when I had to go away, she was reliable and answered all my texts/questions. I was able to go out of town and know my pup was getting proper care!
