Pet care experience
Where Pets are Treated like Family
My son, Henry (11), and daughter, Ella (9), love animals of all kinds and were interested in becoming pet sitters/dog walkers. My husband, Ben, and I offered to partner with our kids so they would have some help as they started their journey. The details below are a little more about Henry and Ella. Please note that Ben and I will be the primary caretakers for any animals we interact with and are comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. (Henry) I have been around dogs of all ages my entire life. From puppies to senior dogs, I am sure to walk at a pace the dog is comfortable with and take breaks if the dog needs time to rest. (Ella) I love all dogs but especially those that like to be pet and snuggled.

A wonderful experience! Thank you!!
Katie and family took fantastic care of my dog. Lots of walks and loving. Thank you so much!
This is the 2nd time having my dog stay with Katie and her family. I love how instantly comfortable Dobby is when visits them. They truly love making him a part of the family when I'm away and I'm very grateful for that!
Katie and her husband did a fantastic job with my dog. They were very caring, provided lots of pictures and videos, and were good communicators. I will definitely be using them again in the future.
Katie and her family were such a blessing to find for my dog Dobby. Dobby stayed with them for 8 days and I was always kept in the loop the entire time. Katie sent numerous pictures and videos about his day. I could tell dobby was being cared for and integrated into their family. I was so grateful to know he was in such caring hands while we were on vacation. I cant recommend Katie and her family enough!
Dolly loves visiting with Katie, Ben, and their kids. She gets so much love and attention from this wonderful family. We always know Dolly will be well cared for with them.

Schedule
(Henry) Most of the time weekends are free for me so I thought why not start a dog walking business to start saving money. Outside of animals, I enjoy learning about computers and new technology. (Ella) I am normally free in the afternoons after school. Outside of dog sitting I enjoy gymnastics.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
(Henry) I have a pug that I walk everyday in my neighborhood. Even though I have a small dog, I also have experience with larger dogs such as boxers, golden retrievers, pyrenees, labs, doodles, and border collies. (Ella) When the dogs are in my backyard, I stay with them to make sure they feel comfortable.
Pets
A typical day
(Henry) Every dog is different; some enjoy playing fetch, others tug-of-war, and some just enjoy snuggling. My goal is to learn what activities your pup enjoys and incorporate that into our time together. (Ella) I like to play tug of war and chase with the dogs that stay at our house. I also love to give dogs belly rubs.
