Need a BFF for your BFF?

Pet care experience

I was raised around dogs all my life but it wasn’t until 2014 when I started pet sitting officially. I love dogs, and cats. The unconditional love they offer is truly inspiring. Currently, I have three, steady, long term clients but I’d love to increase that within the coming months. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs and cats including deaf, blind, untrained, those needing potty training and other special needs. I’m open to any size animal or any age and breed. In my eyes, all dogs are puppies and deserve the same love and affection as the first day they came to their forever home. Let me take care of your pet because they deserve to be treated like family. I can’t wait to meet you. Please feel free to message me so that we may get to know each other. Your comfort and trust is of the utmost importance.

I am probably the most neurotic/anxious pet parent there is so going on vacation and leaving my dogs with a stranger gives me anxiety for weeks ahead of time. Katie came over for a meet and greet a few days before we left and as soon as she walked out of our house I breathed a sigh of relief. Katie will love your animals like they are her own. You will get pictures and videos of her playing with and snuggling your babies just like you would. Both of our babies have separation anxiety (or maybe I have the separation anxiety?) but with Katie they settled right in and did fantastic. I will never ever ever worry about leaving my babies as long as I have Katie to stay with them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for loving and caring for Malu and Gordon. We cannot thank you enough!

I was very nervous leaving our boys for the first time with someone. Katie was absolutely amazing! We have used her twice now and each time have had a more than wonderful experience. This previous stay she came in on a very last minute request and completely saved us and our boys! Our two boys absolutely love her! She sends pictures, videos, and multiple updates. I could not recommend her more! We will always ask for Katie anytime we go out of town.

Katie does a wonderful job keeping Guinness from missing us too much. Her attention, belly rubs and toy play keeps him looking forward to seeing her.

I’m a big believer that pets are family members. That means diet, exercise, playtime, medication, and even downtime are extremely important! Your best friend deserves the best, whether you can physically be there or not!

I am open to all breeds and ages, but I do like to know a bit about their personalities before accepting any position. Let's set up a meet and greet so we can get to know each other!

A typical day

Playtime is a BIG deal with most pets when it comes to establishing trust! Whether it is going to pick out a new toy together, walks, or even rides to go get pupcups, I'm willing to put in whatever effort is needed to earn the trust of your trusted companion.
