EXPERIENCE: * Professional Pet Sitter for 15 years! * Previous Dog care Attendant and Bather for Popular local High End Dog Daycare for 2 years. * Volunteer Wonder Dog Rescue and local rescue groups * No-Kill Shelter and Animal Rights Activist * 20+ years of caring for personal friends & family pets. I have been a professional pet sitter & dog walker since 2005! I started caring for dogs and cats professionally in San Francisco and have continued to do so in Sacramento. I care about animals, and I care about making sure your pets have a fun stress free experience while you are on vacation. I have 2 dogs of my own and I worry about them when I'm gone, so I want you to feel safe and secure when you leave your pets with me. I am lucky enough to work from home full time which my dogs love and they would love some company! I will hangout with your dogs all day and take them on 2 walks and more potty breaks. I can also board your dogs while you are away or on vacation. Your pets will be with me all day and most evenings and given so much love! I Offer * daily exercise, walks and play time * poop pick-up & waste disposal * follow through of any home routines * senior care * puppy care * administer medication * daily photo updates * I can take small and medium dogs only. **Testimonials** "Amy W. May 8 Katie is so great. My little dog Josie .... Is, let's say ... Special. :). Josie doesn't like walks, other dogs or new people. After taking the time to get to know Josie and her preferences, Katie took Josie on outings that seemed to meet the little dog's preferences. Katie wanted to make sure Josie had a good time. I was so happy to know that my dog was in such great care. I'd still have Katie walk and care for Josie if she didn't move. Josie just fell in love with Katie. And if Josie likes her that REALLY means something!" "Olivia P. May 9 When Katie lived in SF she was our dog walker and dog sitter for 2 years. We were sad to see her move to Sacramento cause our dog squid was always so happy after her fun time with Katie. Squid does have leash aggression issues and issues with other dogs and Katie was great dealing with all of that, no problem. Squid also has special dietary needs and Katie was always good about making sure she ate the right things. Its obvious how much love Katie has for dogs and animals. She is a great care giver!"
Reviews
She was on time. My furballs were just fine when I got back. She was great with proof of life emails. I have zero qualms about hiring her again. Very cost effective way to manage pet care for vacations. You will not be disappointed if you hire Katie to watch your dogs, cats, iguanas or buffalo. :-)
We have had the pleasure of having Katie over several times both for quick drop in visits and longer housesitting/overnight stays (up to a week!) We have a very sweet but sometimes anxious/reactive dog who is wary of strangers and needs time to warm up to almost everyone, but he fell in love with Katie from the start (after a meet and greet!) and has really enjoyed having her keep him company while we are gone. We get plenty of great photos (your dog has never looked better than with Katie's portrait mode on her iPhone :) ), and are constantly reassured knowing that she spends plenty of time with him while we are gone. Can't recommend more highly!
Katie is so great and helpful! It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our little fur baby was in her care while we were out of town.
Katie was completely reliable and took great care of our dog. I swear our dog was better behaved when we got back from our trip and had clearly been exercised regularly. The house was in great shape. We'd book Katie anytime!

Information Katie K. would like to know about your pet
I can only take small and medium dogs as I don’t have a yard. I can only take dogs that get along with other dogs since I have 2 of my own. Adult dogs need to be potty trained.
A typical day
I usually walk the dogs in the morning while it’s still cool out in the summer I’m near several parks we can go play at. I usually take a break at lunch and take the dogs potty again. I then take the dogs on another walk and feed them dinner (if you want). I spend lots of time cuddling, petting, loving and playing with your dog’s in between.
