Pet care experience

So fetch 🐾

Animals have always been part of my life. I grew up surrounded by dogs (my family bred miniature dachshunds), and I’ve been caring for pets ever since. From snuggly lap dogs to high-energy working breeds and cats with big personalities. For the past five years, I've been traveling the country with my 11-year-old yellow lab, Arendelle, in our tiny home exploring nature and making memories. Including fostering other dogs and cats along the way. Now we have settled in the beautiful Issaquah with leisurely strolls to the park. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or adventurous walks, I’ll ensure your baby feels loved and cared for, just like one of my own with as many photo and video updates as you like!

Safety, trust & environment

Your care instructions are top priority and I want to make your pet feel safe while you are away. I am also a very tidy and organized person so don't be surprised if you come home with it sparkling a bit.

Katie came to stay with our dogs over a long weekend. She sent pictures of them snoozing and on walks. When we got home, they were as chill as they normally are with us! We would use her services again.

Katie was great, she listened to the needs as requests that we had and followed through with them. She sent updates and responded to my texts promptly. Our dogs were treated very well and kept safe while we were away. I will definitely be looking to book with Katie in the future. Thank you again Katie! 💕

Katie is an excellent sitter! She is very responsible, reliable, and responsive and took excellent care of my new puppy. She was always available last minute, graciously worked around my schedule, and gave great updates throughout the day. My puppy and her dog got along great and played the entire day. My puppy would wait at the door every morning waiting for them to come. I highly recommend Katie and trusted her with my new puppy completely!

It is always good to know any triggers your pet has or things that make their tails wag. I want to make them feel as conferable as possible during the stressful time their human is away.
