Educated animal lover 🐾
Pet care experience
I have my BSc in Animal Health. I have worked with a variety of vet clinics and rescues assisting with both dogs and cats for 7 years as well as taking care of many pets for family and friends since I was young, including 3 dogs or 3 cats at once. When I was younger we owned 3 active border collies and now I only own one cat. Which means I'd love to interact with your furry friends. I love animals and they seem to love me too. I will gladly take care of your pets for short or long stays in the comfort of their own homes. I am active and like to walk, I have knowledge of vaccines/medications and animal behaviour. I understand all pets have different activity and feeding requirements and will happily accommodate your/your pets needs! I may be flexible on rates depending on certain factors, please keep in mind that rover takes 20% of the shown price. Please Note: For arrival/leave times outside of 7am-9pm, I will be adding on a $60 charge to the booking per my discretion. Thanks for your understanding.
Reviews
Katie was wonderful with our special frenchie. He has a lot of personality quirks but she was able to give him his space and made him feel comfortable. Katie left our place as clean as we left it and was very communicative throughout the stay sending pictures and updates which we appreciated. Would book Katie again!
We were pretty anxious about finding somewhere for our rescue to stay or be looked after while we took a trip. Finding Katie was an incredible stroke of luck. She took time to meet with us and our dog and just chat and get to know us. She was friendly and professional, and absolutely wonderful with our dog. She stayed in our home for the week and looked after both dog and house, and arguably left it cleaner than she found it! Honesty we can't rave enough about our experience with Katie - attentive, polite, professional, and someone we will absolutely trust again with our pet and our home. Thanks Katie, look forward to seeing you again!
I needed a dog walker for my dog Phoenix and found Katie. She is quick to reply, very accommodating, and willing to meet your pup to see if its a match. She is very knowledgeable and you can tell she truly loves animals. Phoenix took to her very quickly and loves spending time with her. If you're looking for someone to take care of your dog and treat them like her own, then Katie is your person. I'm so happy to have found her. Monica
Our dogs had the best time with Katie! She took them on so many walks and we came back to such a clean house and happy pups! Couldn’t recommend her more!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I think pets are always more comfortable in their own homes. I will gladly come to your home and interact with your pet to ensure we are a good match. I like to build trust and get to know your animals needs. I will gladly take your pet for walks, to the dog park per your request or throw a ball in the yard. I like to play with cats too and know that sometimes they just need a companion.
Information Katie H. would like to know about your pet
I am happy to take care of all pets even with medical or behaviour concerns. I can follow your requirements and want to take the best care of your pet. Please let me know of past history with people or other animals. I like to know about vaccine history for my own pets safety.
A typical day
I love to go for walks or to the dog park if you are okay with that. I love to play fetch or use the pets favorite toy with them. I prefer to walk around a grassy park than a concrete sidewalk since it's the pets walk and not mine.

I work in the office from 830-430, I would be more than happy to tend to your pet outside of those hours if that works for you.
