Experienced vet tech!

Pet care experience

I was a vet tech for 6 years and I missed caring for animals that’s why I became a Rover pet sitter. I know it’s hard to leave your furry friends behind and I want to assure you that I will give them all the love, attention and respect they deserve until you come back. Medications are not an issue I’ve given everything under the sun being a vet tech and even to my own animals. Please reach out with any questions!

We loved having Katie come and take care of our kitties! She came by once per day and gave prompt updates and I know she really liked our babies! Even the one that is a little "spicy." She didn't have to, but took the initiative to vacuum up a hairball that one of the kitties must have dropped while playing. We really appreciated the care she gave to them! We would highly recommend!

Another great experience leaving my fur baby, Olive, with Katie! Olive is a lucky girl. 🍀😻

Katie was a blessing when we had to be out of town for a family emergency. She jumped in and took great care of our gang (3 large older dogs) including, meds, feeding, watering and of course lots of loving on them. Very professional and a joy to work with!

Safety, trust & environment

I love being outside and going for walks even when it’s cold so getting your dog(s) out multiple times a day is no issue. I can easily stick to a schedule if your pet has one or we can lounge on the couch and snuggle. I adapt to any situation! My daughter does come with me for visits from time to time, she is 4 years old and wants to be a veterinarian one day. Loving and helping animals is her current passion along with doing her own makeup and changing her outfits 5 times a day. (Haha)

Information Katie H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or medications before hand. I typically care for animals that are good with kids because my daughter does come with me most visits. So please let me know if they have any behavioral issues or triggers that I need to be aware of, for her safety.

A typical day

We frequently take our own dogs for long walks and hikes to experience new smells and get all their energy out! We live close to a bunch of walking paths so getting exercise multiple times a day is no issue for us! We love tired happy dogs!

I currently work part time at a veterinary clinic in north Knoxville so my schedule is flexible. When I am not at work, my daughter, husband and I enjoy gardening at home, walking our two dogs and exploring the outdoors. I am available most weekends, week days and holidays.
