Experienced & Educated Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
Welcome! I am an accredited dog trainer, soon-to-be dog behavior consultant, have my Bachelor’s degree in biology, and am an avid PAWS volunteer! I only offer walking and sitting services on Rover, but just want to assure you your beloved dog or cat are in very caring hands. I have experience interacting with dogs of varying sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments on a daily basis professionally for the past 6 years. I am especially skilled at caring for dogs who tend to be reactive and/or anxious in an urban environment.
Reviews
Katie has been walking our dog Major for over a year and we couldn’t be happier. Katie is a great communicator and clearly truly cares about our dog. I highly recommend Katie for all of your pet-related needs!
Couldn’t be happier with Katie taking care of my Bubba. He is a goofy handful and I have complete trust in her.
So happy to have Katie walking Bubba. Makes me feel completely comfortable and has the best updates!
Beat Walker ever :)
About Katie P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My dog-walking style is all about the pup’s needs! If you have an active dog with plenty of energy, we will spend time doing mental and physical exercise. If you have a mellow senior dog, we will take slow walks to soak in the scenery and the scents. I have multiple long leashes in different lengths and am a pro at finding safe, calmer spots in the neighborhood for your pup to get more freedom of movement!
Information Katie P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I should account for. Door dasher? Hates people wearing hats? Anything at all, let me know so your pet and I can both remain safe.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your dog mentally and physically. I will let them explore scents on their walks or play enriching games with them during their drop-in visit.
