Katie was so awesome!! I needed a dog sitter to come stay at my place on short notice, and Katie made me feel so comfortable with handling my pups. She was able to spend time with them and sent me lots of photos. I love how she was able to administer their medications without any issues. I’ll definitely keep in touch with her to sit for my pups again!

Katie is the most caring and responsible individual I know. She has been a great asset to many of my friends and their pooches, and with the energy of a puppy...she'll always be able to handle all types of dogs! She always is reliable, and just a great energy to be around.

Katie is the BEST dog walker/sitter ever! She was great with my older, special needs dog, and my younger, more hyper active dog absolutely adores her. She always knows when Katie is coming and gets so excited to see her! Katie takes lots of pictures and I always feel in the loop when I'm away. I'm not sure who enjoys their time together more- Gertie or Katie! I have been using Katie for over a year and there is not a more responsible, reliable, or fun dog walker/sitter anywhere!

Katie hasa an incredible love for dogs! She has the ability work and play with all breeds and sizes! Since she has grown up with Rottweiler's she seems to have an intuitive knack with bully breeds and large dogs and has spend exuberant amounts of time with small dog breeds to be able to care for and love all of our 4 legged fur babies.
