Dottie enjoyed her sleepover with Katie and her pups! Nice to be able to leave our dog and know she was in good hands!

House Sitting • Jul 14, 2022

Hands down the best sitter! We loved having Katie stay at our house and watch our two fur babies. She went above and beyond to love on our pets and help take care of our house. Katie sent plenty of pictures and updates and left our house looking spotless when we arrived. Already booking her for another week away.

Katie is an amazing person, not only did she provide the best care to my dogs while I was away, but made sure my house was kept clean and tidy like I never left! Because this was my first time away in awhile, Katie was able to keep in touch with me on the status of how everything was at home like, sending pictures of the dogs or even the weather! She made sure they had the best care and made sure they were daily running outside and having fun. Katie is trustworthy and I was very comfortable having her in my home. Katie is meticulous, detailed, honest, and offers affordable pet sitting services. I would recommend her to the highest of standards.

Katie's first priority is always the safety and well-being of animals in general, especially bigger dogs. She is comfortable with my Rottweiler Pitbull mix and willing to care for him, many others decline. My animals love her and so do I! I Highly recomend Katie for your fur baby needs.

Any dog who has a chance to spend some time with Katie will have a blast! I’ve known Katie for many years and she’s never been without a pet! Her dedication to her two current pups is impressive. They are extremely well behaved and you can tell how much they love their owner. Katie will always put her animals first and I know she will do the same for any pet that she watches. If I ever need a pet sitter, she’s my girl!
