Pet care experience

Loving on animals is my favorite!

I’ve grown up with at least 3 dogs in my house my whole life. Numbers and pet types have varied through time (more or less dogs, hamsters, tortoises, cats, etc.) but my family has always called me the “animal whisperer”. Since I was young, friends, family, neighbors, and many others have trusted me to be a pet nanny to their variety of pets, and it’s been an absolute privilege and such a joyful experience!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t often care for animals in my own home unless it’s in a small cage (a hamster or hedgehog, for example) due to having my own cat there, but I’ve been trusted in and with many others homes. Not just for taking care of their pets during the day or overnight, but also tend to their home while they’re gone- collecting mail, newspaper, taking out trash, etc.

House Sitting • Aug 10, 2021

Katie was a wonderful in-home sitter for our dog, Harry. She was polite and courteous and did everything I asked her. She stayed seven nights and eight days. Harry was very well taken care of. If we ever need a sitter again, she will be our first choice. We highly recommend her!

Katie has loved dogs since she was a child, and she takes care of each one as if they're her own. She's had several pet-sitting gigs outside of Rover and so has earned a reputation as a trusted dog/cat/whatever caregiver. She'll even take lots of cute pictures and videos of pets and send them to the owners.
