Pawsitively Reliable Sitter

My husband and I are a team who absolutely love caring for dogs! I’ve been around dogs since I was 12, and he’s been around dogs and animals his entire life. Together, we’ve spent years raising and loving our own three sweet fur babies. We know how important patience, kindness, and consistency are when it comes to caring for pups. Whether your dog is shy and sensitive or full of energy and playfulness, we’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. We treat every dog like part of our family!

“Mazy had the best time with Katie! Her yard is perfect for the dogs to play, and her puppy Bernie Mac was the perfect host for our 11 month old pup. We got daily updates and adorable pictures throughout her stay. Thank you so much! We 100% recommend Katie! ⭐️”

I was very anxious leaving my two pups with someone new, but Katie was wonderful!! Every update was thorough and eased my anxiety. She was also very sweet and patient with my very shy girl. I am so grateful to have found her for future stays. They came back exhausted and happy! I already planned another stay with her because she did such a wonderful job!

Our puppy had a great stay with Katie and we had no concerns that she was taken well care of. The daily updates and pictures were much appreciated and put our minds further at ease. Would definitely recommend!

Katie was so welcoming and kind to Pluto during her first stay and really put our mind at ease. Katie was flexible about timing, was great with communication, and had a great yard for dogs staying with her to enjoy.

Katie took great care of Kenzie (Sr lab) while we were traveling. She sent us pics and updates while we were gone. We will definitely be back when the need arises.

Schedule

Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily life since I work from home. I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day — whether it’s regular walks, play breaks, feeding, or just being there to offer comfort and company. My husband and I coordinate our schedules so there’s always someone home, meaning your dog will never be left alone and will always have company, care, and lots of love.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets have plenty of space to feel comfortable and relaxed. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a fully fenced yard—perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Inside, we have a spacious 4-bedroom house where dogs can explore, nap, or cuddle up wherever they feel most at home. We provide a calm, loving environment with consistent routines, personalized attention, and lots of affection. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, we make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved.

Pets

A typical day

We love keeping pets happy and active! Depending on their personality and energy level, we’ll enjoy neighborhood walks, playtime in the fenced yard, games like fetch or tug-of-war, and lots of belly rubs and cuddles. For more relaxed pups, we’re happy to provide quiet companionship and cozy nap spots. We also enjoy working on basic commands and giving treats for mental stimulation. Every day is tailored to what makes your dog feel loved, safe, and entertained!

It’s important for us to know your pet’s routine, temperament, medical needs, allergies, and any behavioral quirks. We also like to know what comforts them, what they enjoy, and anything they dislike.
