Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat Whisperer/Dog Magnet/Pet Lover☺
I've been surrounded by animals ever since I can remember. Growing up I helped care for three cats, five dogs, two birds, a guinea pig, several fish, a hermit crab--you name it, my family probably had at least one! I walked dogs and pet sat professionally on and off between 2017 and 2024, and I'm ready to welcome some additional animal love back into my life (I'm sure my cats will permit it after some persuasion/bribery). I have a lot of experience and a lot of love to give!

Ratings and reviews
Katie was FANTASTIC with our puppy! Katie made sure we were informed about everything at home during our house-stay, with lots of pictures, videos, and clear communication. Katie is super kind, and we would jump almost as high as our puppy to book her again!
Katie was a wonderful and caring caregiver for my two dogs. She did at home stay and was really great at sending pictures to give me peace of mind. I would definitely use her again. I felt like I was leaving my dogs in the best of hands. Thank you Katie!
Loved the communication including regular pictures and videos. It was also clear our pets were super happy based on her engagement and loving care of them. Even the cats hung out with her right from the start which was super cool to see.
Katie is great! Nice to trust my cat with a good animal person 😊💜
Katie is the first person I've booked through Rover and I would book her again in a heartbeat! She gave me so much peace of mind that my cat was well taken care of and loved while I was away. I absolutely loved the photos she shared!
Katie was a great sitter for my dog and cat. While my dog loves people, my cat is normally very shy and will hide from people he doesn’t know. Katie was the cat whisperer, because within just a few hours, she managed to coax him out from his safe spot and had him rubbing up next to her for pets. I definitely recommend her.

Schedule
I freelance, so my schedule is very flexible. I can be available most times on weekdays and weekends for dog walking, and my schedule is generally quite open for in-house pet sitting.
