Experienced former vet tech!

Pet care experience

I was a vet tech for 6 years and I miss caring for animals that’s why I’m becoming 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 and injections 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 frequent the dog park with our own dog but mostly take leashed walks around the local parks. 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!

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 dogs who are good with other dogs and kids so please let me know if they have any behavioral issues or triggers that I need to be aware of.

A typical day

We frequent the dog park with our own dog and love going for long walks and hikes to experience new smells and get all the energy out! We live in an apartment complex which has a dog grooming area and a fenced area for dogs to run around. We live close to lakeshore park and a bunch of walking paths so getting exercise multiple times a day is no issue for us! We love tired happy dogs!
