Availability

I am a stay-at-home mom, so I can easily work around pick up and drop offs to come take care of your sweet fur baby. Other than quick runs, we are usually at home with our fluffy friends🐾, but can easily crate your dog if needed.

Safety, trust & environment

I know how busy life can get and how hard it is to trust someone else to take care of your furry family member. I take this role incredibly seriously and love and care for all fur babies, knowing that they all have different personalities and needs. We have a full and loving home with a fully fenced-in backyard with 3 doggy playmates to have fun with.

Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

For drop ins and walks, I'll need to know your dog's routine, of any medications or if your dog has any aggression or skittishness, just so I know what sort of dog I'm dealing with. For boarding, I'll need to know your dog's temperament with other dogs, children and cats. For the safety of my family, my pets and the other dogs I care for, I cannot board aggressive dogs. I'll also need to know about any dietary needs, allergies or medical issues. Your dog must be potty trained (for puppies, some accidents are always expected though) and up to date on flea medication for me to board them.

A typical day

We have a myriad of toys for all different sized dogs with a large backyard with enough room to play a good game of fetch!

Lover of all things furry🐾

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Katie and I've been an animal lover my entire life, the kind of person that gets excited every time I see a dog in public and will be the first to ask if I can pet it! Now married with 4 kids, we have 3 dogs and a cat, and we're always taking care of friend's and family's fur babies, too. I'm an RN and don't shy away from administering meds. I currently have a blind dog who requires eye drops twice a day. We recently had our 18 year old pug pass away, so I'm quite familiar with the needs of senior citizen pets, including diapers! Along with dogs and cats, I have experience with all sorts of small fur babies, too, like mice, rats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, hamsters, etc. I would love to take care of your fur babies when you are away from home! Special skills include: best belly and ear rubs, talking to animals in weird voices, loving all puppers as my own, med administration, specialized care of senior citizen pets, playing fetch ⚾️ I do request that dogs are up to date on their flea treatments and that dogs 6 months and older are potty trained. An accident here and there isn't a problem though😊

My beagle, Rockne, seems to have found a second home with Katie! She really provides a 5-Star experience for him!

Katie and her family were so great with Rayne! She kept me updated and sent pictures of Rayne playing with the puppies, her kids, and herself! I was extremely happy with Katie! I can’t wait til I can book her again!

Our dog loves going to Katie’s! She always pulls to go in her house and comes back happy and tired.
