Pet care experience

Friendly experienced pet sitter!

I have been working in the animal care field for 10 years and have had dogs for 15 years. I have worked in dog day cares and veterinary hospitals, providing me with a strong background in animal behavior and health. My attention to detail and enthusiasm for dog care is unparalleled. I offer compassionate dog & cat care at your home/house sitting, daily check-in visits, dog walking, and dog bathing/brushing. I am committed to making your dog/cat happy when you can't be at home. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! People choose me to care for their pets due to my knowledge of animal health care, ability to provide necessary medications, and provide basic first aid and CPR should an emergency medical issue arise while I am caring for your pet. You can rest assured that I will treat your pet as if it were my own.

Katie watched my German Sherpherd, Golden Retriever, and 2 cats while my family went on vacation for a week. While we were away we watched the cameras in our home she played with them and gave them so much love! It felt so good knowing our fur babies were being watched by someone who treated them like family instead of a job. I would highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a sitter.

Katie is wonderful with my dogs. My older dog is a shy and Katie recognized that and let the dog come when ready. My younger dog is boisterous and bouncy and Katie took it in stride. I'd trust her with my dogs any day.

I would highly recommend Katie for all your pet needs. She has years of vet tech experience and has been taking care of our cats when we have been away. We have always come home to happy kittehs and clean litter boxes​.

If I had to trust anyone with the care of my pet Katie would be it. Knowledgeable, concerned, pet loving and genuine! Her experience and ongoing education in the health and well being of animals makes her a top notch caregiver. Your fur babies will get lots of love and attention from this natural fur baby Mommy!

I will set up a time with you to discuss your pet's story. I'll get to know a little bit about you, your pet's background, personality, and basic likes/dislikes. We'll talk about any training your dog or car has had and any medical conditions or medical history I should be aware of before caring for your pet. I'm glad to work with all breeds and temperaments.
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.
