This was our second time booking with Katie, and this stay was for a much longer international trip—9 nights in total. Knowing we’d be so far from home, and that getting back quickly would be difficult if anything went wrong, definitely gave me some anxiety beforehand. I’m happy to say that Katie once again exceeded our expectations. She took exceptional care of Fitz and our home, kept everything neat and tidy, communicated regularly throughout our trip, and sent plenty of photos and updates. Her reliability and attention to detail allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about how things were going at home. Katie has a wonderful, calming presence with animals and genuinely cares for them as if they were her own. I would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. We’ve even had family members watch Fitz in the past, and Katie unquestionably does a better job. 😂 We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her and will absolutely book with her again.

Katie is awesome. She took great care of my pup and gave her her meds. Our dog was so happy to see us when we arrived home. House looked perfect. Thanks so much Katie!

Katie cared for our dog Fitz for 4 nights in our home while we were away and she was the ideal petsitter. The house looked exactly as we left it, Fitz was fed/cared for/happy, she provided frequent updates, and she took the time to learn about his routines and habits. Katie is very familiar with dogs of all breeds and temperaments and we knew Fitz was in capable hands after meeting and speaking with her. I would not hesitate to recommend!

This is my second time using Katie and she is amazing with my "special needs" dog. He is hyperactive & has separtion anxiety and she is excellent dealing with those issues. It's clear she really enjoys taking care of him. I'll use her anytime our schedules align!

I have cared for puppies in the midst of potty training to older and handicapped dogs who need extra special care and assistance. I am familiar with an array of temperaments from breed to post shelter shyness or even aggression. I take great notice of detail regarding each pup to adapt to his or her specific needs. I provide, drop in visits, dog walking, housesitting & additional services if needed. I look forward to hearing from you! Have a lovely day :)
