Pet care experience

I just love animals :)

I have been watching/walking pets for neighbors since middle school. I am used to caring for breeds small and large, I especially love a mastiff :) I am happy to help walk, feed, train, and most importantly, love on your pets! Currently lead training our shelter pup, Lulu. I am also a big cat person, and having just lost my cat last January to cancer, recently adopted a senior of my own, Zora. I also have prior experience caring for senior pets, and administering different forms of medications.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When meeting new pets, I establish trust by not overstepping their boundaries, and letting them get to know me at their pace. As much as my job is to care for them, I need them first to know I am not a threat, and I am on their side!

Katie was AMAZING. They sent so many pictures and updates, and our shy, nervous pup took to them immediately. We will definitely be having Katie back again.

Katie is phenomenal with our very shy cats. One of our cats won't even come out of the closet for our family members who visit often. Sitters in the past have not been able to get our cat to eat on visits and Katie is able to not only get her out of the closet but my cat will also eat out of their hand and accept some pets. Having Katie watch over our fur babies while we are away has taken so much stress off us while traveling. Thank you Katie!!

Katie is wonderful! They gave our sweet cat so much care and affection while we were on vacation. We will absolutely book Katie in the future.

Schedule

I currently only teach from 2-4 Monday through Friday, and want to make pet-care my main focus in the mornings and evenings. I am more than available for walks early morning, and hanging out in the evening while pet sitting.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Katie can host up to 9 drop-ins per day
I would like to know your pets comfort level interacting with other humans and other dogs, so I can prepare accordingly and avoid possible negative interactions on walks. I also need to know if your dog has any triggers, food aggression, etc
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
