Safety, trust & environment

I currently do not offer in home boarding because of my two dogs but at your home I treat your place with respect. Your house, your rules. I always make sure to keep eyes on your pet if you have a yard and walks I keep dogs on leash and away from people and other animals unless otherwise specified that they are okay with socializing! You can usually find me out on walks with your dog or curled up snuggling with a good book.

Information Katie K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog needs any special care (takes medication, has separation anxiety, etc). I’m more than happy to care for your baby like it’s my own.

A typical day

A typical day will consist of a few nice walks and a lot of one on one play and snuggles! I love to listen to music and have dance parties with dogs and then end the day reading and relaxing together.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of friends’ and family pets for 10 years and have been working as a Pet Professional in LA for nearly 4 years. I currently have 2 of my own dogs, a 7 year old shepherd mix and an 8 year old pug who are well taken care of by my fiancée while I’m spending time with your dogs. I have trained puppies, ran with big dogs, and taken care of senior animals. I love your babies as much as my own.

Katie is seriously the best! She’s super trustworthy and reliable, and my pup is obsessed with her. Her updates always crack me and my husband up, they’re the best. I hate being away from my dog, but knowing he gets to hang out with her makes me feel so much better.

Katie is our dog’s absolute favorite Rover sitter. She is caring, attentive, and fun. We love her and would book her every time if we could!

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.
