Spoiling Your Pets Like My Own!!

Pet care experience

Growing up, I spent as much time as I could volunteering at shelters and animal rescues, learning how to care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Once I was old enough to work, I took on professional roles involving animals, gaining hands-on experience in everything from basic care to behavior support. I don’t just watch pets—I connect with them, spoil them, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away.

I have gone to Katie multiple times for my pet care needs. I own two playfully hyper Labs, Peanut and Almond; that adore her! She is very patient, highly responsible and overall kind to work with. She is willing to go above and Beyond. Katie has definitely been a blessing for our fur babies and I!

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, I keep things calm, safe, and structured—perfect for pets who thrive on routine. I live in a small apartment, so I make sure pets get plenty of outdoor time and stimulation throughout the day. I take my own dogs out on leash every 1–2 hours for short potty breaks and fresh air, and we go on a longer walk once a day—usually after dinner when it’s cooler outside. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on consistency, comfort, and keeping them active, loved, and well-cared for. I tailor everything to fit your pet’s needs and routine.

Information Katie J. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful to know if your pet has any specific needs, routines, or quirks. Please let me know about their temperament, how they do around other dogs, any health issues, medications, or allergies, and what their usual feeding and potty schedule is like. I also like to know if they have any favorite toys, commands they respond to, or things that make them anxious, so I can make them feel as comfortable and at home as possible. And if you’re comfortable with it, let me know whether you’d be okay with me taking them to the dog park for some fun and safe socialization!

A typical day

When I watch pets, I love to keep them active, happy, and engaged! I take my own dogs out 1–2 times a day, and I currently have an energetic 8-month-old puppy who keeps me on my toes. We usually go on at least one long walk every day, and I often bring them to a nearby dog park where they can run, play, and socialize in a safe, fun environment. Your pup would get lots of attention, exercise, and playtime with me—just like one of my own!
