Pet care experience

Animals are truly my passion!

I have lived on a farm for roughly 12 years which meant many people dropped off cats and dogs. I have brought all those animals in and took care of them. I absolutely love taking care of any kind of animal. My dog, Peanut, (who i raised since he was born) is my best friend and i could not imagine life without having him!

Safety, trust & environment

I am not planning on caring for pets in my home. I currently live with my cousin who has an older dog that is not use to having any other pets in the house.

Katie did a great job taking care of our cat and senior dog while we were away! She communicated with me every day and the house and pets were in great shape when we got home. Wouldn’t hesitate to call her again!

Katie was 12 out of 10 great. My husband and I were away for a long weekend and she stayed with our cattle dog, Gus. We returned home to a happy puppy dog and our home just as we had left it. She was so patient with Gus who doesn't do great with new people and communicated with me the entire weekend. Dogs are lucky to have walkers/sitters like Katie around!

Katie was amazing with our dog and 2 cats. She sent us updates and pictures every day and we were truly able to relax while we were away knowing our babies were in good hands. Katie went above and beyond by keeping the house extra clean. She even vacuumed and washed her bedding before she left. Thank you for taking such great care of our girls.

Katie is the best! She is so thoughtful and caring to our dog, who can be extremely active and excitable. Our dog gets SO excited anytime we mention Katie’s name, she truly loves their time together. Katie is also extremely flexible and easy to coordinate with. We couldn’t recommend her enough!

Katie was a good sitter for Blue. I'd recommend her again.

Katie did a wonderful job for our fur babies once again! They were well taken care of and updates and pictures were sent twice a day. They are two big dogs who don’t seem to want for any attention while we’re away, and I know they’ll be very happy to see her again soon!

I would like to know about any special needs that your furry friend may need. I would also like to know about any history health concerns!
