Professional Dog Lover/Best Friend

Pet care experience

I am currently a student at Winthrop pursuing my Master’s in Teaching while living uptown Charlotte, with all my classes being online right now and in the evenings. My other job is as a personal grocery shopper, which is very flexible, leaving me with plenty of time and opportunity to care for your pets! I have a dog that’s a yorkie, a cat, and three guinea pigs, so all I ask is that your pets get along with small dogs and cats (the guinea pigs will be caged and safe so that’s not a concern). I worked for a veterinarian for 8 years, so I have worked with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes, and I’m familiar with what I need to do in case of an emergency. I also grew up in a household that rescued animals, so I was one of many children even though I was the only one with two feet 😉. I am looking forward to meeting your pets and providing them with the love and care I give to my own. 💕

Katie is very great with animals! She grew up and has cared for dogs,cats,and guinea pigs her whole life! Anyone would be lucky to have her take care of their pets and they would be in exceptional hands. She is an extremely responsible and loving dog caregiver.

Katie loves animals more than any other person I know. I've never seen an animal that doesn't like her immediately. Honestly I think my pets like her more than me. She has years of experience working in a vet and has tons of her own animals of various breeds and species and she loves and cares for each of them passionately. She is always kind and gentle and treats all of them as people.

Information Katie M. would like to know about your pet

I always like to know what their favorite toy is or what their favorite activity is. Sometimes a dog can get nervous about new people, and I like to know something that will show them I am a friend. Their personalities are all so fun to get to know, and I have absolutely no breed preference since I have worked with just about every breed there is in my experience at the veterinarian's office.

A typical day

I will do what fits the dog! If there's some energy, I can guarantee I will be out running and playing with them, and if they just need a belly rub or their favorite toy, I will be ready to provide a relaxing environment, as well.
