Katie took great care of my pets! She checked in and let me know of any changes to the planned schedule. Everyone was happy and healthy while I was away. She even let me know they were paving the roads and adjusted the walking route for Oscar!

We had a great experience with Katie. She stayed with our dogs over the holiday weekend. I have 2 rescues who are very nervous around new people, we had a meet and greet and scheduled a few dog walks before the stay. Everything went great, she gave updates during her stay, quick to respond, and she was always on time. We would definitely recommend Katie and will be using her services again in the future!

We met Katie for a meet and greet and scheduled a dog walk together. I have 2 rescues who are both anxious and get nervous with new people. She has been very patient with them and asked lots of questions to better understand their behaviors. Katie has been great with our dogs and they are warming up to her. I will definitely be booking with Katie again.

Katie is truly the best. She took care of our pit bull and our sphynx, plus our best friend’s older pit who has mobility issues, anxiety, and a pretty involved medication routine. Managing all three could not have been easy, but she handled everything with so much care and attention. We’ve used Katie multiple times and she’s always reliable, communicative, and incredibly trustworthy. She keeps us updated with messages and photos, takes great care of our home, and most importantly makes sure our pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. This was our third time working with Katie and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate sitter.
