Availability

I have been taking care of 5 clients’ precious babies, and I always keep their parents updated. I text them when I arrive at their house, when I feed their precious ones, and when I let them outside to do their business. I also spend time playing with them, sometimes for an hour, and take them on walks when needed. I even take pictures and send them to their mommy and daddy so they can have peace of mind knowing their furbabies are happy, safe, and well cared for! 🐾❤️ I do work full-time; however, I only go into the office on Mondays and Fridays. On Tuesdays through Thursdays, I work remotely, which allows me to stay at your home and spend more time with your babies while caring for them. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. 😊🐾

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and bedtime routines. For potty breaks, I always stay outside with your babies in the backyard so I know where they are and can ensure their safety at all times. When taking dogs for walks, I choose routes carefully and walk on the side of the street that provides the greatest distance from traffic whenever possible. I remain attentive to our surroundings and prioritize safety throughout the walk. I provide plenty of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your precious furbabies are safe, happy, and well cared for. I treat every pet as if they were my own and respect your home by keeping it clean, secure, and tidy throughout my stay.

Information Katie P. would like to know about your pet

I always schedule a meet-and-greet before accepting a booking so both the pet parents and I can get to know each other and make sure everyone feels comfortable. This also gives your babies an opportunity to meet me and become familiar with my presence before I begin caring for them. Most importantly, I am flexible and experienced with pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and disabilities. My primary requirement is that they are reasonably trained and can be handled safely. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both you and your precious furbabies. 🐾❤️

A typical day

I will spend plenty of quality time with your dog while you’re away. I typically spend at least 2 hours each day playing with them, taking them for walks, giving them belly rubs, and providing lots of love and attention. Depending on your dog’s personality and comfort level, I may even teach them a few basic sign language commands! 🐾😊 Extra House-Sitting Services I am more than happy to bring in your mail and place it wherever you prefer, water your plants, and turn lights on and off while you’re away. I can also care for your cats by feeding them, refreshing their water, giving them attention, and cleaning the litter box. My goal is to help your pets feel comfortable and keep your home running smoothly while you’re gone.

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs since I was an infant, so being a dog lover comes naturally to me. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly treat them like family. I am a proud dog mom/sister to two dogs - a mother and daughter duo named Tallaluah and Stella. I also have an indoor cat, named October. In addition, I care for two "adopted" stray cats who visit/stay around my house for food, water, love and attention as well. My furbabies mean the world to me so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your furry family members. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different personalities. sizes, and needs. Whether your pets need feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, or simple companionship while you are away, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. I also believe communication is very important while pet parents are away. I regularly send updates, pictures, and texts so the parents can feel relaxed knowing their furbabies are being well care for. Before any booking, I prefer doing a meet & greet so both you and your furbabies can feel comfortable with me.. Building trust with animals is something I take seriously, and I always want them to feel at ease before the care begins.

Katie’s service was absolutely stellar! She is reliable, professional, very communicative and thoughtful. I needed her to house sit for my 2 cats and rambunctious puppy, and she did a phenomenal job. I highly recommend her services!
