Pet care experience

Only accepting dogs under 40lbs! Please read entire profile before requesting to ensure we are a good fit for a meet and greet! I have had dogs of my own my entire life that I have been caring for. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to leave your fur baby with someone you can trust. I believe all animals deserve to be loved, happy, and safe at all times and I want to provide that for your pet! I am extremely trustworthy and will keep you updated with photos of your pet! *****Unfortunately, I am no longer accepting pitty mixes as new clients. As much as I love them, we had a bad experience and can’t have them around Luke. *****I cant watch dogs that bark/cry excessively for a long period of time if we leave the house. We have and will receive a fine from the city.

My 2 small dogs had a great time with Katie. She was very patient with my older girl and alerted me to changes in her behavior. All around good experience.

Katie was great with Remi! It was his first time there and she made him comfortable and he always looked happy in pictures sent! We met before leaving for our trip and she made sure she knew what Remi liked and had a met with her pup. I felt that they really cared and it showed when Remi stayed with them. He came home happy. We would definitely use Katie again for Remi.!

Katie clearly cares about the pups! She walks them frequently and her home is clean and safe for dogs. My anxious dog didn’t like the other dogs in the house but she’s a very nervous girl. More outgoing dogs would be fine.

A typical day

We love to go for our morning walk before I start work at 8am. Dogs will have free roam of my home and be allowed on the bed and furniture. We have multiple potty breaks during the workday and at 4:30 we go for another walk and then one before bed.

Availability

I work from home Monday through Friday so I am always available. I walk my dog every morning and take multiple potty breaks throughout the day. Your dog will be cared for during the day and never left alone for more than a few hours in the evening. If you are not comfortable with us leaving the house at all with your pet here, then we will not be a good match. In order for your dog to stay in our home, they must get along with other small dogs. I find that dogs who are typically anxious usually have a hard time adapting when other dogs are in the home. Sometimes there’s just too much activity here for them. I would like to set up meet and greets before just to be sure your pet and my Toy Aussie Luke get along. I watch multiple dogs at once and their safety is my first priority. ALL DOGS MUST BE HOUSE BROKEN. Please no dogs that have a habit of marking their territory around the house. Accidents happen but I can not have pee marking in our home. It is extremely difficult to clean off furniture.
