Cat & Small Dog Sitter!
Pet care experience
My love for pet care first started when I got a guinea pig in high school. I became obsessed with learning every possible thing I could about my new pet. I eventually worked at a pet store in the animal care position, where I cared for a variety of small animals, reptiles, and fish. I worked there for 2 years. Through that experience I met a nice lady with a gecko, who kindly requested that I petsit her lizard over the holidays. I ended up doing that several years in a row. On multiple occasions I’ve cared for my friend’s ferrets in my home for extended periods of time. My most recent pet care experience, outside of my own pets of course, is the few clients I’ve had here on Rover!
Reviews
Katie was wonderful with our cats. Everyday we received playful pictures of each of our fur balls as they interacted with her and each other. She scooped litter boxes and even put ice in their water as instructed. We would highly recommend Katie as a cat sitter! ?
Katie is so sweet and my dog loved hanging out with her!
Katie took such good care of my fur baby. She had play time, and meal times like normal, while we were gone. It was a huge relief knowing that she was being looked after by Katie. We will definitely ask her to watch Junebug again!
Katie was great kept in contact with questions. Super patient with our anxious pup who is not used to strangers when our normal sitter could not cover. She handled a pack of dogs including a 4 mo old puppy.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I love sending lots of cute photos of pets to their owners and I make sure to play with the pets to get their energy out. I do best with a care checklist from the owner!
Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know anything you feel is necessary! I find that a simple checklist and perhaps a list of favorite toys/treats is very helpful.
A typical day
I’ll happily play with your pet(s) and run around with them. I feel that I’m pretty creative when it comes to entertaining pets. For example, if you have treat puzzles I like to hide it somewhere right before the visit ends! Gives them something more to do.
