Pet care experience

Animal Aunt!

Hello! I live in a second-story apartment, and would love your pet to come stay with me! My family had dogs, hamsters, and fish growing up, and I have been regularly dog and cat sitting for neighbors, family, and friends for over 10 years. I live in a very animal-friendly apartment complex, which includes a small dog park!

As with the other times Katie has watched our pup, she was attentive, punctual, and loved on our girl while we were away. Katie is amazing!

Katie was great with our French bulldog! We have trusted her with our dog’s care several times and every time has been great! Even with our dogs quirks and seasonal allergies that lead to some extra care steps, Katie is receptive and has taken great care of our pup!

We have trusted our French Bulldog with Katie on several occasions and will continue to use her services in the future! Katie sends great updates and we rest easy knowing our dog is in good hands!

Katie was a phenomenal sitter and caretaker. Our pup was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. We’d recommend her to anyone and hope to book with her again!!

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t have any other pets in my home, so your fur baby will have my full attention! I have a second floor apartment, so probably wouldn’t be a great fit for a large or loud animal, but have a very pet-friendly neighborhood, great for walks! Full disclosure: Your pet will spend most of their time with me cuddled up on the couch watching Harry Potter :)

A typical day

I start with a walk in my neighborhood to estimate the energy level and social experience of the dog. If the dog is very social and high energy, I could take them to a dog park, play fetch, and tug-of-war. If lower energy and/more shy around other dogs or people, I would find a quiet path to do our walks and play games with them at home.

I like to know the dogs aggression level, energy level, it’s behavior around other people, dogs, and animals. How often they bark and what they typically bark at.
