Safety, trust & environment

I will always request detailed instructions on the care for your pet, as I want to ensure they are still getting the type of care they would normally get with you! Every pet is different, no two are exactly alike and I can’t wait to get to know your furry friend!!

Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any medical conditions, pup’s preferences, behavioral traits to watch for and your training methods so I can do it right! Any size, any age, all breeds!

A typical day

We can walk any route you would go on! Around the neighborhood, the park, anywhere you and pup are comfortable with (as long as the weather allows)! Show me their favorite toy(s) and the rest is history!

I’ll treat your pet like my own!

Pet care experience

I currently work at a dog training facility, and am learning many amazing tips and tricks for pups that may be having some behavioral challenges. I own a rescued nine year old pitty of my own when he was 4 months old. I have done all his training and past routined medical care (I’m no stranger to energetic, stubborn pups. I love them!). He is a main part of my life, I get energy and fulfillment from caring for pets, no matter the age, energy level or behavioral requirements. I believe that pets are our family, and I respect your wishes for their care, which is a top priority for me! Everyone has busy lives, and if I can help someone who still wants the best for their pet, I will take that opportunity any chance I can! Note: I have a history of working at the humane society administering vaccines as well as experience as a Vet Tech Assistant administering subcutaneous fluids, oral and injectable medications, and overall basic medical knowledge. As long as your own pet allows me to do any treatment by myself, then I am more than happy to do so! I am also comfortable caring for kiddos with special behavioral requirements.

Katie did a great job and is definitely a dog person. Kept me up to date with a bunch of cute dog pics which I enjoyed. 10/10 would recommend

Katie was great with Ela! She kept me updated and sent pictures and videos, giving a summary after the visit. Ela really enjoyed her time with her, will definitely book with her again!

This is the second time I asked Katie to watch Felix and she once again did a great job and went above and beyond to accommodate some unexpected events that came up while I was away. I felt that Felix was in good hands with Katie and I highly recommend booking her to look after your pets.
