Highlights
Pet care experience
YOUR PET'S 2ND BEST FRIEND :)
I love all pets! I have taken care of anything from a 130 pound dog to a crested gecko and tarantula, any pet you have I would love to meet. I know leaving home is hard and I understand how important pets are. Your pets are family, so my job is to keep them in the same safe and loving environment that you give them each day. I have been around animals since I was a kid so I am experienced with administering medication through injections, pills, and topical creams. I have also cared for pets with special needs and dogs who experience seizures, so I have the knowledge to handle those types of situations too.

Safety, trust & environment
First and foremost I want to keep your pets comfortable in their own home. I believe it is super important to let all animals get to know me at their own pace because their comfort comes first. For me to make your transition home as easy as possible, I like to maintain the same routine for them that you set up. And last but certainly not least I understand that this is your home along your pet(s), I uphold the respect and privacy that should always been seen when being in someone else's space.
Ratings and reviews
Katie was awesome! Handled my 3 very different dog situations well. One has Pica disorder and she rushed her to the emergency vet like a professional and had such compassion for the situation having happened. This dog is a challenging situation and she maman her with such care. Highly recommend her services on Rover.
The whole process booking with Katie was easy! We needed her help with our two kittens who need a bunch of attention throughout the week and when we arrived home everything was in order and under control. She did a great job watching over the kittens during our vacation and made our arrival peaceful by having them already taken care of. She is so sweet and caring. We received updates at least twice a day about the day which we LOVED ! We appreciate you for all your help! Thank you.
Katie is a phenomenal sitter and walker. We have 2 frenchies, one of which a recent rescue. She cared for them for a week and took such good care of them while we were gone. Both dogs just love her and became so sweet and comfortable with her. She checked in with us multiple times each day with pics and updates! She’s the perfect house guest, super helpful with small tasks like garbage and mail. Kept the house tidy while we were gone! She’s our go to for our pups!
This was our first time having someone stay at our house to watch our two frenchies and I couldn’t be happier! Katie was wonderful with the pups and the daily photos allowed us to relax, knowing that they’re being well taken care of.
Our girls LOVED Katie!
Katie exceeded our expectations. You can tell she is a true dog lover. She made our boy feel comfortable while we were gone. Great with communication and sending pictures daily. We will definitely use her again.

Schedule
I will be taking 2 in person college courses (one each weekday) starting in the fall 2026, so I have the time to be with your pet(s). I’m comfortable working weekends and weekdays so that they always have a friend like me around. I like to keep an honest schedule here on Rover so if a last minute thing needs your attention my availability is up to date!
