Highlights
Pet care experience
At parties, I hang out with the dog
I grew up taking care of my family dog that we had for 13 wonderful years. I have been dog sitting for many years and have also volunteered at animal shelters in the past. My partner and I own a home in Hillsborough, where we have a large, fenced-in yard for our own pups, Reggie and Echo, to enjoy. Reggie is excitable and has a loud voice, and though he doesn't always know how to contain that energy, he's a lovebug who just wants to play with anyone and everyone. We've had a number of dogs here to stay with us, including a 12-week-old puppy, and he loves them all! We recently got him a little sister, Echo. After a 2-hour adjustment period, they were fast friends and snuggling as they napped! She's also a sweetheart and is working on learning good manners. Reggie and Echo spend most of their time traipsing around the back yard and napping in the sun. I work from home, so your dog can get plenty of supervised playtime! I can also send plenty of pictures during your little one's stay if you'd like! Let me care for your sweet pup when you are away from home!

Safety, trust & environment
We live on an acre, and the back half is completely fenced in with a 5 ft fence to keep all pups safe and contained!
Ratings and reviews
Our older Labrador is somehow still energetic while also being quite lazy. Katie did a great job balancing the dog’s needs. She was communicative and helpful. We returned to a tidy home and happy dog.
Katie took excellent care of our dog! We were able to travel for the holidays stress free knowing our pup was in good hands!
Katie is awesome! Willie seemed to have a great time enjoying the porch and snuggles. We highly recommend Katie .
Katie was such a great sitter for my pup over a long weekend! I would definitely re-book with her!
I was pleased with everything about Sunny’s stay with Katie & enjoyed the 2 darling pictures she sent.
We had Katie watch our dog Lucy over Thanksgiving break. She was so great and easy to work with. We booked last minute and our return flight was delayed. Katie was very accomodating to our flexible schedule. We received pictures regularly which we really appreciated. She was always very quick to respond to our messages and updates. Lucy took to Katie immediately, and we will definitely use her again.
