Pet care experience

Communicative, reliable, caring

I have extensive experience training and caring for dogs and cats of all ages and abilities - puppies and senior dogs. I grew up with dogs and cats of my own and have spent many years taking care of friends' and families' pets: dog-walking, drop-in visits, feeding, and playing.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have raised a puppy so am very familiar with the process of training them and the amount of energy they need to get out each day. I love taking dogs on long walks and exercising them enough to tire out, or take it slower for those older dogs who are lower energy.

Katie took great care of my dog! She was able to get her to go on walks, which isn't always easy. Katie was super patient and sweet with my dog, which I appreciate! I will definitely hire Katie again in the future.

Katie has been communicative, reliable, and most importantly, very kind and attentive to my pup! I'd certainly recommend Katie for anyone looking for help with a pup of their own!

Drop-In Visits • May 14, 2021

After an entire day with no word from Katie, i called and left several messages. After that she was very communicative, which I really appreciated! She did leave the bags of food and wet treats open while I was away and Penny's food got stale so I had to replace it, but that's probably just lack of experience with cats!

Katie communicated when she picked up and dropped off my dog. I was able to watch pick up/drop off via my Ring cameras and she was kind to my pup and he seemed to immediately take a liking to her! I would recommend her to walk your dog! Thanks Katie:)
