Pet care experience

I am a highly active, patient, and personable person. I love all types of animals and have many years of experience working with a variety of breeds and species (this ranges from horses to a special little rat named Cookie). I always treat each pet with the same love and respect as if they were my own. I have a very open schedule over the summer as I am currently a graduate student, with part time availability during the school year. I’m not afraid of some hard work or challenges, and look forward to spending time with your pup when other responsibilities call, or if you’re just looking to get away (I personally know what it’s like trying to find pet care during vacations having four dogs, a cat, and 8 chickens). Your pet will receive nothing but the best when they are with me!

Katy provided just what I was looking for. Attentive loving care for my yorkie. She is very understanding and knowledgeable about dogs, and in my case--my senior dog. It was very easy and quick to connect with her. Her very sweet rescued poodle was easy for my not always friendly dog to get along with. I have also rebooked her for another stay. I would highly recommend her!

Katie has been around dogs her whole life. When I met her she had four dogs, of different size, breed, and personality. She took care of all of them to meet their new individual needs, starting from nutrition and exercise. Anyone can pick up after a dog, but few can really take care of their diet, entertainment and health. Katie is one of them. She can make your dog happy, entertained, and most importantly healthy.

Information Katie P. would like to know about your pet

The only information I absolutely need about your dog is whether or not they are aggressive with other animals and what kind of animals, or if they can be aggressive toward people. Second to that would be whether or not they are fully housebroken. This is not a deal-breaker, but will help me prepare. Of course, any other special information, including medications and allergies, will always be expected.

A typical day

Because I have a fenced in property that is 2-acres, your dog will have plenty of space to run around. We can also visit the dog park near my home, or go hiking on the trails near my house. I also have access to sidewalks for safe walking in town. Your dog will never be bored!
