What do you call a frozen dog?

Pet care experience

Answer: A PUPSICLE :D Hello! I have a very large pit bull, who is not know for his friendliness, and because of this basically any other type of dog is a step-down in a dog-walking challenge! Because of my pup, I am very comfortable around other dogs and don't mind large typically "aggressive" breeds. I am a runner and in great shape able to tackle long-walks or trails, ready to match the needs of your dog. Right now, I'm getting my PhD in art history/archaeology at UCSC (let me know if your dog needs a dig buddy!) My schedule is fairly flexible, as even though I have a lot of work to do, I can do it anywhere and anytime! I have also owned several cats, hermit crabs, birds, and other critters, and am available to help with any other pet-related services you might need!

Katie is a great dogsitter and I trust her completely with my sweet pit mix Cheyenne. I felt entirely confident leaving my dog and my house with Katie. My dog sometimes has little freak out moments when seeing another dog on a walk, but Katie has such a calm demeanor that it was a non-issue. When I had the opportunity to extend my trip last minute, she made arrangements so she could stay another night—so appreciated! I also loved all the pictures and updates—she’s a great communicator and made leaving my pup at home a breeze. My house was well taken care of, and Cheyenne was happy and calm when I returned. I recommend Katie wholeheartedly!

Katie is a fantastic sitter. She has dog walked and done overnights for my two dogs. She is very communicative, reliable, and prompt. I highly reccomend her.
