Experienced & attentive dog sitter!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I have owned dogs for 34 years. I grew up with labs, and owned my first lab in college, and now have two yorkies who are my world. They love making new friends! I am a huge animal lover and enjoy taking care of other's pets. I've been a dog walker/sitter for Rover and WAG for over 7 years. I currently live in Jamaica Plain MA. I am great with all dogs breeds and ages, and I make sure to give them lots of attention and cuddles. I'm also experienced in taking care of cats. I had 2 cats growing up for almost 17 years. Thank you in advance for trusting me with your dog/cat. I promise that I will treat them like my own. Please my reviews. I have wonderful repeat clients!

My dog didn’t want to leave. Katie is a dog whisperer.

Katie was wonderful and took great care of our pup! She gave us frequent updates and ensured our dog was safe and comfortable the whole time. We would definitely book with Katie in the future!

Information Katie K. would like to know about your pet

I accept all breeds under 50lbs. If your dog is bigger, but good on leash, I can make an exception. I prefer to take hypoallergenic dogs in my home, as sadly I’m allergic, but can sometimes make an exception.

A typical day

I live near Jamaica Pond which is a great place for me to take your dog(s) to run around. I'd take them on long walks, but will always be more than happy to play inside if the weather isn't walkable for very long!

I own dogs so it’s not hard for me to add another pup in. I have a lot of experience with it. I work part time, so I am home a lot and never leave my own dogs for more than 3 hours at a time.
