Pet care experience

Pets are family

My name is Katie and I have been pet sitting for over 15 years! I love all animals. I have taken care of mostly dogs and cats, but I have some experience with small animals such as birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, and fish. I have a degree in animal science, so I am experienced in the medical and behavioral side of the animal world as well. I have two dogs and one cat of my own. They definitely keep me busy! I know how stressful it can be finding someone trustworthy and reliable for our fur babies. That's why I want to help your planning to be as stress LESS as possible! I will take care of your babies like they are my own. I always listen to directions and anything you tell me your pet needs. If booking boarding in my home, your dog MUST be potty trained, MUST get along with my dogs and cat. A meet and greet is necessary! I only accept one family at a time for boarding so please book in advance. I have a job in a restaurant as well, so I am not always available. However, my schedule is pretty flexible just ask and I'll see what I can do. Thank you for reading!

Thank you so much for taking such good care of Malia. She can be a stinker sometimes but we still love her. Sorry for forgetting to leave the small bowls out for you. We greatly appreciate your care and help.

Katie was amazing! I booked last minute and she was super accommodating. My shy cat warmed up to her quickly. She took lots of pictures, great updates to ease my mind while away, and even took in a package off my front porch. Would definitely recommend.

Katie was absolutely amazing. My cats are very shy and she got them to trust her enough to take a snack directly from her hand. Her updates and pictures were so thoughtful, I highly recommend her.

Katie has been fantastic with our finicky, nervous cat. Katie manages to keep her calm and in her routine when we travel. She makes sure our all our cats needs are met, cleans up after her, and gives us honest, daily reports. Katie even brings new toys over for our cat to play with during her visits. She’s the best!

Katie is the absolute best. This is the second time she has helped us through an emergency. I accidentally left her the wrong keys, and she kindly worked with an emergency locksmith to get into our house and take care of our cat. We got home and the cat was happy and healthy as always. Thank you Katie!!!

Does your dog get along with other dogs? Potty trained? I love all breeds. Is your dog food aggressive? Does your animal have any allergies?
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.
