Work from home dog enthusiast

Pet care experience

I work from home full time! I am typically available during work hours to walk, or stay with the dog for a bit (can be multiple times throughout the day). I have a standing meeting at 9:30-10 am everyday, around that my schedule is very flexible. Weekends I’m flexible :). My family has had a dog (Ozzy, 13 year old Morkie) since I was 13. I absolutely love him and caring for him, I lived with them for a year while I was working from home and was his primary caretaker. He’s an older dog who is sometimes a bit temperamental, so I have experience with that, as well as restrictive diets and administrating medication for older dogs. He currently lives with my family in Wall so there are no other pets here. I often dog sit for family friends as well. We have no pets in our home, I have one roommate (childhood best friend). I am a short walk from the boardwalk as well as silver lake park for walks! I cannot offer overnight boarding in our home.

Katie is so lovely! Ellie fell in love with her the minute they met! She loves animals and it shows! She is so knowledgeable about the care of my 11 YO baby! Thanks Katie!

I love knowing that when I need to leave my pooch for an extended period of time, that Katie P is on her way. Not only is Katie an animal lover, but she is reliable and trustworthy. I know my baby is safe, happy and entertained when Katie steps in to care for my boy when I can not. If you are a paranoid dog or cat mom, I can confidently say your worries should be fully extinguished if your lucky enough to have Katie watch your pet.

Safety, trust & environment

I’ve never met a dog I don’t absolutely love! I guarantee your dog will be in a safe and loving environment anytime I am with them, I will send pictures and updates as well via text to you to let you know how our visit went. I have great experience with senior animals, I can follow a medication routine if needed. I understand that older animals can be a bit feisty in their older age and know how to care for them in a calm and loving manner.

Information Katie P. would like to know about your pet

Ahead of time it would be helpful to know how the dog is around other people and other dogs so I can be mindful of this. Additionally any dietary restrictions or medications needed.

A typical day

I love taking long walks down the boardwalk and would love to bring a dog along! There’s a park next to my house that would be great for playtime, and doggy parks near by if the dog is good with other dogs! I love to cuddle and give belly scratches too.
