Since I was little, animals have always been a big part of my life. From puppies to senior dogs and tiny hatchlings to full grown tortoises, every animal is just a baby and should be taken care of as such. In all my years pet sitting, never have I met a pet that didnt become a friend.

Safety, trust & environment

I love walking my dog everyday, and multiple times a day. As a high energy breed, she very much thrives from multiple walks and one on one time with mom.

Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

It is important to know if your pet gets along with others and if I am feeding them, I will need to know exact amounts and if they are given any medication.

A typical day

Every morning before work, I walk Jovie around the apartment complex. Normally she has one spot where she likes to go potty. On my lunch break, I like to get out and take her on another walk so we can get some fresh air. She takes a nap normally between 1-3, and then we take another walk before she eats dinner, then another one before bed.

Pet care experience

I will spoil your pets as if they were my own! I have my own dog, Jovie. She is a 9 month old lab mix and very strong willed. She is also in training to become a service dog. I am used to taking care of big dogs, but have no problem with small ones as well. I will walk and do drop ins to make sure your four legged baby is well taken care of! Currently, I am available most days.

Katie was great. She accommodated our last-minute request, took very good care of our doggies, and kept in communication with us. Highly recommend.

Katie took great care of our girl! This was our first time using a pet sitter, and Katie walked me through the process and provided much needed reassurance. She communicated with us throughout our trip, was flexible with the timing of visits, and sent (very cute) pictures of our girl. She went above and beyond vacuuming up spilled litter and snuggling with our girl every day. We will definitely be booking again!!

Katie is amazing! She was super available and communicative and did an amazing job with Margot! Margot is not a fan of strangers but definitely loved Katie! Katie was very patient and caring and I will definitely be booking her again. 100% recommend her!
