Room To Roam & Be Happy!

Pet care experience

My name is Katie and I have a husband and two dogs, Bailey & Buddy. I am currently unemployed and would love more than anything to find a job working with animals, but in the meantime this seems right up my alley! I also volunteer at my local animal shelter which has given me the opportunity to care for dogs of various breeds and demeanors. I have always had a dog or two in my life and will never live without one! We live on 3.5 acres on a dead-end road in the country. We spend a lot of time outside walking around the property and playing with our dogs. We have a cozy home where the dogs rule the roost..and the couch!

Katie did a wonderful job with our 7 month Lab. We received pictures and a update daily. He came home tired from playing so much!! We definitely would love to have her watch him again!!!

Katie was awesome! She took great care of our dogs. Bo has a health issue & she was perfectly comfortable with it. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our "fur babies". Will definitely hire her again!

Katie did a fantastic job Luna was there for a week and came back tired and happy. Katie sent us pictures every day while we're on vacation and it was so good to see our dog enjoying her stay. It was so nice to know that our dog was in a safe and loving home environment. Bill M.

Information Katie R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any food restrictions or allergies. If he/she is house broken or if they do better in a crate when left unattended. I especially would like to know their daily routines and demeanor. This allows me to provide a familiar and comfortable atmosphere for them when they stay with me!

A typical day

My dogs and I get our exercise by playing outside. In the Spring and Summer, I'm normally working in the garden, maintaining our plants, fruit trees, etc. while Bailey and Buddy roam the yard under my watchful eye. At nighttime, Bailey tends to sleep where she's most comfortable (on the couch) and Buddy in his comfy dog bed. Right now they get an unlimited amount of attention since I'm home all day! If your dog were to stay with us, he/she would get plenty of exercise running around our huge yard with Bailey and Buddy (unless they're older and have exercise restrictions). He/she will sleep wherever they feel comfortable. Like I said above, they will get my undivided attention. :)
