Experienced & compassionate sitter!

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Katie. I'm a lifelong animal lover, shelter volunteer, and the owner of a pretty wonderful pup. I grew up with/own medium and big dogs (+75 lbs) so really any size or breed will do! I'm comfortable giving dogs medicine and I have no preference in the age or of the dogs I work with. They're just too lovable all around. We do ask that in order to be respectful of our neighbors, if your dog is very vocal or has resource guarding challenges it may not be a perfect fit. I also have volunteered and trained with BARCS (Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter) so I'm knowledgeable as well. I took their entry level class on dog walking/obedience and have helped out in several other shelters in different states. I have a very sweet, very active Vizsla who would love to befriend and play with your pup. My husband loves to take our pup hiking and could bring your dog along too! We are clean, college educated, and love giving belly rubs!! It would be our pleasure to watch your dog while you're away. Contact us today!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a decent sized back yard with a tall fence. Our dog is athletic and unable to get through our fence, so we feel confident it’s a secure location. We do ask that we set up a meet and greet for any overnight stays so ensure you’re happy with all of our amenities and that our pups get along!

Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know anything you think is relevant for dog sitting! For instance: feeding schedule/amount, sleep schedule, favorite toys, preferences when meeting other dog friends, any leash challenges, any training opportunities, favorite treats, etc!

A typical day

I can match my dog sitting style to your dog's needs. He wants to run around the backyard and play fetch? Check. Your dog is more of a Netflix lover? That's fine too! I have an excellent set of hands for ear scratches and belly rubs. My pup likes to do a little of both usually, so once we get into a routine I'm sure your dog and I will be peas in a pod.
