Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors to look out for. I'm most experienced with small to medium-sized breeds, but I can walk large dogs too!

A typical day

I love to go on walks, just like your dog! We can go to a local park and play, or if your dog likes car rides, we can go a bit further afield for a short hike. Of course, there'll be lots of petting either way!

Cat and dog-loving college student!

Pet care experience

I’m experienced with cats, so I can easily take care of them in addition to dogs! I also love dogs, of course, and have some experience with puppies from my family dog. I'm taking a break from school at the moment, so I have plenty of time for your dog! I'm currently available every day except for midday on Fridays. I have two cats at my house in San Jose, so I can easily board your cat if needed! (No dogs though, on account of the cats.) I can drive to your house to sit or check on your pet, and since I'm not currently taking classes I can stay as long as needed!

Katie helped me out last minute when I was in a pinch. I have never hired a dog walker through Rover and have only previously used dog sitting services. However, Katie made the process super easy. She spent extra time with my girl and made sure she had the walk she deserved that day.

Katie has cat sat our cat Fufu for so many trips now I can’t remember! But she’s so caring and kind and does such a great job - I am so grateful to have her. Definitely will book again!

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.
