Highlights
Pet care experience
Cross-country pet care since 2009
Hello! I'm Katie. I have been taking care of pets across the country since 2009. Over the last 15 years, I have worked with numerous breeds of all ages, sizes, coat varieties, exercise levels, and medication/special care needs. I always approach new pets with patience and allow them to build our friendship on their terms (but we do always end up best friends). My main focus is always taking worry away from pets and families alike, so that everyone can enjoy a fun and relaxing time. In addition to dogs, I have worked with many cats (often in the same household, but also on their own), rodents, fish, household birds, and chickens. Though we never want to encounter an emergency situation, I have become well-versed in life's surprises over the years, from puppy sicknesses to bruised tails. No matter what, I stay in contact with the family and give their pets the best care possible until they return.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I specialize in offering pet care in the family's home. I find that this offers the most relaxing experience for the pets, who are in their home space, and for the families, who have peace of mind that their home is being looked after. Naturally, I follow all routine care for pets, including brushing/bathing. I also provide routine household upkeep while the family is away, such as plant care, dishwashing, vacuuming, taking out trash, picking up mail etc. I am here to keep your home running like normal while you are away.
Ratings and reviews
Katie was absolutely great with my cat! She left detailed notes, played with her, and stayed extra to give extra snuggles! She even did some cleaning and went above and beyond. Highly recommend!
Katie was absolutely great with my cat and he loved her very much too. The litter box and the area around it was very well taken care of and my cat was happy.
Have used Katie a few times now and my cats love her! Very good at communication and gives great updates
Great sitter!
Katie was so patient with my shy kitty. I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in her care and would definitely recommend her!
Katie was wonderful! She provided timely updates and great photos of our cats. We looked forward to hearing about her updates and she was incredibly thoughtful when we chatted about visiting our house to take care of our pets. Katie, next time we go on vacation we'll look for you!

Schedule
I am a baker! I get up at 3:30am, come home by 2:30pm, and aim to be asleep by 7:30pm. I'm happy to drop in for your pet in the afternoon/early evening M-F and to arrange twice-per-day care on the weekends. If you're unsure how our schedules can fit together, feel free to just reach out and ask!
