Pet care experience
I've been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. I love all dogs but I have a soft spot in my heart for rescues. I truly believe every dog deserves a chance at finding their forever home and a family who will take care of them. Coincidentally, my weakness is picking out the dogs that no one else wants... When I was 16, I convinced my parents to adopt the shy terrier mix with excessive anxiety. When I was 20, I convinced my parents, yet again, to adopt the loud beagle/chihuahua mix with chronic cough. And when I moved in with my husband in 2019, I convinced him to adopt the adult rottweiler mix with heartworm. So, I guess you could say I have plenty of experience with dogs requiring a little more attention! I also have experience handling and taking care of reactive dogs and I am currently a volunteer at the local animal shelter.
Reviews
Katie has helped me with Boone many times. She’s always quick to respond and is truly a life saver. I know Boone is always happy to see her, too. I highly recommend Katie!
Katie has taken care of our little dog on numerous occasions. She is very loving towards our pup and is very responsible with some of his special needs. I highly recommend her! It’s always easier to travel knowing our little fur baby is in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment
I will treat your pet as my own whether I'm in your home or bringing him/her into mine. My pets have always been an extension of my family and, in my opinion, deserve just as much love and attention as humans do!
Information Katie P. would like to know about your pet
I have plenty of experience with dogs requiring special attention or care. Please let me know if there is anything that I need to be aware of so that I can accommodate your pet's needs.
A typical day
You can expect plenty of nice walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks! We can sit in the sun or throw the ball around the field. Low energy? I'll give lots of belly rubs and ear scratches instead.

I am currently self-employed with a schedule that changes every week. As a result, I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to your pets! I'm available on weekdays and most times throughout the day. I generally work my full-time job on weekends; however, if you're needing some help on a Saturday or Sunday, please reach out and I can try to accommodate your needs.
