Pet care experience
I absolutely love animals. They have truly made my life better! My family has owned a wide range of animals from 20lb lab mix rescues and mid-size labradoodles to 120+ lb Bernese Mountain dogs and our spunky family cat, Elliot. I understand that dogs and cats can have big personalities and require particular levels of care and attention. I am a flexible person when it comes to availability. I work full-time but am mostly available in the evenings and on the weekends for dog walking, drop-ins and boarding opportunities. I can sometimes work remotely during weekdays if planned enough in advance. I am willing to be flexible as long as you and your pet’s needs are communicated effectively to me. I’m looking forward to watching your furry friend soon!
Reviews
Katie is a fantastic dog sitter. She was available super last minute to watch my sweet and very energized presa. She was extremely communicative and was just as focused on making sure both she and my dog would be comfortable with each other during the stay. I could tell Vito would love her during our first meet and greet. Not only did she take great care of Vito she left my place pretty much perfect. Thanks so much Katie for helping in pinch you will definitely be at the top of our list for sitters for Vito in the future! :)
Katie took great care of Cosmo! He was on medications and a special diet, but she didn't have any problems with that. He had a fun time with her and came home happy and relaxed.
Our two dogs had a great stay with Katie! She communicated with us throughout the weekend, providing detailed updates on how they were doing. We came home to two happy and well cared for pups. We will definitely book with Katie again!
Katie was very responsive, sent great pics of Amie, and kept us well updated throughout the weekend.

Information Katie H. would like to know about your pet
I am open to multiple breeds but would like to have information about their age, weight, fitness requirements, and the level of attentiveness needed so that I am aware of the expectations.
A typical day
I live in the Capitol Hill/Eastern Market area in Washington, DC in a very walkable area that is close-by to multiple dog parks. I love exercising and giving your dog the best experience possible while they’re in my care. I am flexible to change the experiences we have based on your dog’s preferences.
