Purrfectly reliable and loveable!

Pet care experience

Hi friends! I am a bubbly college student that is majoring in Ecology and Organismal Biology (which are fancy words for an animal biologist). I love animals! I have several of my own and have always had animals growing up. I have numerous years of pet sitting experience which includes family, friends, and professional sitting services. I have also worked in an animal shelter which houses cats and dogs. My goal is to be as attentive to your fur babies as I am with mine at home. For now, my services include drop ins and walking as I would like to get to know you and your babies before staying overnight is considered. I have lived here for two years so there are some areas of Gulfport and surrounding cities that I am unfamiliar with. I look forward to hearing from you!

Katie is very sweet with my dogs. They really respond to her.

Katie is an excellent dog sitter! She has been helping to take care of my puppy since she was two months old (Keiko is now seven months old). Her availability is excellent, and she is often able to come to my house to help on short notice. She has pets of her own so she is very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a dog or cat sitter.

She is very reliable and dependable. Quick to respond. My girl loves seeing her come to the door for their walks. Definitely trust her with my dog.

Safety, trust & environment

My pets are like my children so they get disciplined and loved. I try my best to understand their needs and wants which includes paying attention to their behavior and adjusting accordingly. They do not go without. I will not try to replace you when you are gone, but I will do my best to make the transition as smooth as possible.

Information Katie N. would like to know about your pet

Temperaments are the obvious first thing. Other than that, dietary or special needs. I know that I cannot take your place but I want to make it as calm and normal for your babies as possible. I do my very best for the critters.

A typical day

It totally depends on the pets' needs. If I sit for a couch loving potato, then I shall sit as well. If I've got a hyper ball chaser, I can do that too. We can walk around the neighborhood, at the park, or along the beach.

Availability

My typical day looks like waking up, making sure my own pets are taken out and fed, then I get on about my day. My dog is older so she sleeps most of the day unless there is a thunderstorm. We will usually nap in the afternoons and do some housework or run some errands depending on the day. I do have a part time job in the evenings that shouldn't interfere with any drop ins or walking.
