Katie was sooooo wonderful with our neurotic/anxious pup. Very prompt, communicative, and most importantly kind, sweet, and respectful of our baby Ruthie. She sent the cutest photos and kept us updated all night. Thank you Katie!!!

Our doggy was in great hands with Katie. Thank you for housesitting, sending along photos and the great communication. Our dog has attachment issues and Katie was so patient with everything and took great care of him. Ragnar looks forward to seeing Katie again. :)

Katie dog sat for my 6 month old puppy for about 6 hours. She was so good with him, walked him, played with him, fed him. She sent me pictures of him and their time together. I felt so comfortable and at ease leaving him with her, and Katie will be the first person I call if I need help again.

Katie was amazing! I didn’t have to worry at all. I came home and my pup was happy and exhausted :)

Safety, trust & environment

Nowadays, our pets need a variety of sitting options which Rover doesn’t always recognize in the type of services listed. Our separation anxiety pets especially need options that are more than half hour visits and less than overnight stays. Below are my standard rates for additional service options. You can message me here and we can discuss what is the best option for your pet and how to accommodate rate accordingly.

Information Katie R. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know more about your dog or cat! Tell me their likes, dislikes and typical routine. Favorite walking route? Do they use any typical cues to communicate with you? Do you have rules around treats? I'm here to adapt to your pet's needs!

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog(s) physically and mentally. We'll play fetch, check out all the good smells in the neighborhood and explore any dog parks or parks your comfortable with. I'm also relentless with belly rubs. Kitty cats all have different personalities. Some what to snuggle, some what you to be left alone. Some want to play, some just want you to feed them. I'm here to adapt to whatever your cat needs. I'm also happy to water any plants while you're away.

When I was four years old the Easter Bunny gave me a Golden Retriever puppy. I've never been far from a dog or other animals since. I offer foster care, at home sitting (dogs always do best in their own environment), cat care and dog walking.
