Active dog lover w/ no pets at home

Pet care experience

Active dog lover who is a recent graduate working towards accounting designation while working full-time, living in the Glebe of Ottawa, ON. Happy to take dogs on longer hikes to Bruce Pit Park or other shaded trails on weekends. I can run with your dog if they need to burn off extra energy if its not too hot on the day and am also happy to walk seniors who take life at a slower pace :) . Experience with past and current family pets ranging from 5lbs to 130lbs with medication and mobility needs. I moved away from home and miss the company of my dogs which is why I joined Rover. Any size and breed. I can work patiently with dogs with anxiety. Walks and activities can be customized to your dogs physical and psychological needs. For dogsitting: I live on the main level of a quiet house on a quiet street. The only stairs are the 5 stairs up to the outside porch. I can carry dogs up if they are not able to do stairs or assist as best I can larger senior dogs.

Katie P. was a very kind, compassionate dog sitter for our small, blind aged poodle dog who needs quite a bit of care throughout day. She was very attentive to listen to all of our instructions and did not seem fazed by it all. We were very pleased with her location and ground floor apartment arrangement, all one floor with no stairs in the house. She gave us regular feedback updates so we felt at ease while we were away. We would gladly recommend Katie P. to other Rover users! She was a pleasure to deal with!

Information Katie P. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I have a 5lb Yorkie and 130lb GreatDane/boxer in my family back home in Toronto area so any size works for me! Would need to know how they walk on the leash and how they interact with other dogs passing on the street.

A typical day

Bruce Pit Park, Gatineau, other shaded trails I want to explore on weekends. Lots of green space around the Glebe and I am confident to take your dog to the off leash park at Landsdowne if you want your dogs to have some time socializing.
