professional animal lover
Pet care experience
I graduated college in 2021 and am working as a neuroscience research assistant in the Boston area. I was a full time dog walker for about a year before starting my current job and have lots of experience with waking/sitting dogs of all sizes and ages. I have always been an animal lover and grew up with a labrador, I now have my own lab who is my pride and joy. In college, I worked with a service dog training program where I learned a lot about positive reinforcement training. If you and your dog has any specific training things you're working on, I am happy to help! I also have experience with cats, rabbits, birds, and small rodents and am open to taking care of any animal!
Reviews
Katie was absolutely wonderful watching my bunnies! I received good updates every day about how they were doing, and she looked after them with care. I would trust her to watch my bunnies again.
Katie was absolutely wonderful! She was very responsive and accommodating, and I would definitely trust her to watch my pets again.
Katie did an amazing job caring for my puppy Otis! She gave him great care and attention and provided detailed updates. I would definitely hire her again!
Java and Drago had a great time with Katie!

I can walk and care for dogs of all ages and sizes, please let me know if you have any special rules for your pets.
Home
Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet
I do not have any preferences for walking but please let me know of any special care instructions and how your dog is with other dogs and people so I can be prepared on walks.
A typical day
If you want me to work on things such as heeling on walks or other basic training, let me know! I can bring toys and treats if needed. Low photo sending rate is due to a recurring service where I don't send a rover card because the owners are at home, I send rover cards with photos to all other owners.

Availability
I work 9am-5pm on weekdays but have fairly flexible evenings and weekends. A note: my work is in Belmont so it may take me a bit longer to get to certain areas at rush hour. Tuesdays and Fridays can be tricky for me, but if you need a service around 5-6pm please reach out because there's definitely a chance I could make it work. Drop ins/walks: anytime on weekends, after 5pm on weekdays, before 9am on weekdays (if location and timing work)
