Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to stay in my clients homes where the dog is most comfortable, offering a gentle transition to your absence! I do offer stays at my home, however the dog must be house trained but I have great walking areas around me and a small backyard.

Information Katie H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has issues with other dogs. This is not a deal breaker, but I prefer to meet your dog ahead of time so they are comfortable with me, and I can get to know them and their triggers.

A typical day

I love to go on walks! I understand that a walk is not just the physical exercise, but also letting your dog experience the world through their strongest sense- their smell! I love letting dogs work their brain by sniffing their way around town, and if you’re comfortable with it, off leash fetch is a great physical exercise that is fun for both of us!

I love dogs!!

Pet care experience

I am an absolute dog-lover and will provide your pup with the care and affection they need. I am open to pet sitting, dog walking, or quick pop-ins. If your dog loves walks and exploring the outdoors; if you need a reliable dog sitter; and if you want to have confidence in your dog's safety while you're away, please contact me and I would be thrilled to discuss what works best for you and your pup.

We have two high energy Shepard’s and they LOVE Katie. She’s reliable, trust worthy and intuitive when it comes to our pets. We’ve had a handful of dog walker/pet sitters but Katie by far is the most capable and our go to person whenever we need our dogs to get extra attention!

For as long as I’ve known Katie, I have never thought of her as anyone other than the most caring, trustworthy, selfless, intelligent, and hardworking woman out there. Not only will her love for animals augment her already fully capable skillset, but Rover would be lucky to get to know such a wonderful team player. I have complete confidence that she will succeed above and beyond expectations at Rover

Katie has been my next door neighbor since before she was born, and she is one of my favorite humans. She’s like a daughter to me and a sister to my sons. She is a warm, loving, exciting, enthusiastic person who will be a responsible and trustworthy dog care giver. She was a favorite of our dog Memphis and we were very happy when she took care of him when we were out of town. Anyone will be very happy with her services.

Katie has a true passion for all animals, especially dogs! She's very caring, loving and patient with my 4 year old, incredibly energetic lab, Mayflower. She handles interaction with Mayflower with poise and ease- Mayflower loves Katie! I think Katie would make a wonderful addition to your sweet pups walkies!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
