Pet care experience

Mom to 3 cats, 1 dog (and 2 humans)

With over 30 years of experience caring for pets, I have developed a deep understanding and love for animals of all breeds and sizes. I currently share my home with a dog and three cats, so I'm well-versed in their needs, including administering medications and managing specific diets. I live in a spacious, ranch-style home with a partially fenced yard, perfect for pets to stretch their legs. Since I work from home, I'm available for frequent potty breaks and can offer plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Your furry family members will be in great hands! *Please Note: I do typically take more than one furry friend at a time!*

My Toby can be a bit of a handful at times and Katie does a wonderful job with him. She's kind, has good communication and is flexible. I got stuck at the airport and she was more than accommodating with my booking. I've booked with her multiple times and plan on continuing!

Katie has been my cat sitter for 2 years. She is dependable and professional, my senior cat who is generally very shy loves her! So appreciative I found Katie through Rover.

I work from home full-time - so I'm on hand for frequent potty breaks. My teenaged children also love to help out with playtime and walks.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 1-story private home. I have almost an acre of land and my yard is partially fenced. My pets are very friendly, and my kids love all animals. Because I host multiple dogs at a time, space is limited. To keep things safe and organized, please bring only essential items for each stay. Please provide food in a sealed container or pre-portioned bags. Large items such as oversized feeders, beds, or bulky supplies are not necessary and may not be used during your dog’s stay. Thank you for understanding — this helps me provide the best care possible for all dogs in my home!

Pets

A typical day

Not only will I keep your dog engaged - my pets will help with that as well! They all love to play. Not sure if your dog likes cats? That’s ok; my feline friends know when to make themselves scarce. ☺️

Please let me know about any special needs your pet may have! Your pet’s safety and security are a top priority to me while they’re in my care. Please also be prepared everything your pet might need during their stay, including food. Thank you! **IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT CAT DROP-INS** I realize that bookings are for 30 minutes. However, I do feel that's quite a long time for cats. I want to be upfront with owners booking cat drop-ins with me that typically I spend 15-20 minutes with my feline friends. In my experience that's more than enough time to tend to your cats needs, show them some affection (if they show an interest!) and do everything that's needed. Most cats, I have found, don't need more than a few minutes attention to be satisfied. I still make sure all of your pets needs are met on my visits.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
