Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Katie and I am a Music Therapy Major at Drury University! I have experience watching up to four pets at once as well as being responsible for walking my neighbors rambunctious puppy. I volunteered with TARA for 5 years taking care of and cleaning out the cats cages at the ward parkway center petsmart. I have also been responsible for a couple of dogs who were taking one medication to multiple medications at different times of days. I have always been a pet person and have two playful dogs myself. One other experience I have is watching and taking care of a dog who recently had a leg amputation, I was responsible for putting on his prosthetic as well as lifting up the lab to help him up the stairs. I will always love on and take care of your fur babies!

It was so nice not to worry about our puppy on our trip while Katie was with her! Katie is very dependable and caring. Our Carly adores her! I highly recommend her for overnight pet sitting.

Our puppy Carly had a great time walking with Katie! Katie was on time and spent 30 minutes with her. I enjoyed getting a photo and a map of their route.

Katie was pleasant, thorough and conscientious. She made sure our kitty was well cared for while we were gone away from home.

I always want to make sure your fur babies are comfortable. If they are skittish and need time to adjust to me, I will do just that! I will never push your pet to do what he or she does not want to do!

Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

The most important thing a for me to know about your fur baby before I watch them is definitely their name, I like to know if they are skittish before hand but it’s not a deal breaker if I don’t know, and I definitely like to know their potty/feeding schedule as well as if they are taking any meds!

A typical day

I love to make sure that when I leave your pet is worn out and had their energy gone. Whether that be smelling all of the smells on a walk or playing fetch outside for hours. I love to take dogs to parks or similar areas that allow for plenty of sniffs and stimulation!
