This was Bailey's second stay with Katie and she felt right at home! Katie and her partner were so excited to welcome her back, and I could tell that they all had a great time together. Katie is so easy going and great with communication. I loved all the updates and pictures that she sent. If you are looking for a great sitter, then look no further. Bailey can't wait to spend another weekend with them!

Katie was a phenomenal cat sitter. She had great communication, was flexible and sent pictures of my cat regularly. Because of this, I could see that my cat was happy and healthy and it alleviated so much of the stress of leaving her. Cleo was relaxed and easy going when I picked her up and it was easy to tell she was extremely comfortable and well taken care of. I will absolutely look forward to boarding with Katie again!

Katie was so wonderful to accommodate my last minute request to board my dog for the week. My dog took to her immediately and I could tell that they enjoyed each others' company. Katie was easygoing, communicated well, and sent the cutest updates. She is more than willing to match your dog's pace and adapt to their routine. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent sitter and would book her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Katie!

⸻ Katie was amazing with Bodhi! She sent tons of great pics throughout his stay, which made me feel so at ease. He got plenty of walks and hikes (his favorite!), and it was clear he was having the best time. Katie was super communicative, friendly, and flexible—especially when my flight got delayed. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Would absolutely book with her again!

Katie was amazing. Truly. She was flexible, kind, responsive, and pre-empted a-lot of our cat’s needs. She is the best cat-sitter we’ve ever had.

Schedule

📆 my schedule has tons of availability! I’m home for most of the day, only working at night. Mondays are the only day I’m out of the house where a pup might be alone for about 5/6 hours. I've got a car and clean driving record, so transportation is easy enough.

Let's go to a park, beach, on a hike, or a really long walk! If you've got toys and treats we'll bring 'em. Just need your permission for an off-leash dog park.
