Pet care experience
I have taken care of dogs and other animals since a young girl with family pets. In the last 2 years, I have expanded my pet care experience to rescuing and fostering dogs until ready for adoption in the greater Duluth area. This experience included learning and utilizing different training techniques to address aggression, separation anxiety, barking, chewing, inappropriate elimination, biting and jumping. I have a year old puppy at home who is the sweetest soul and loves to play with other dogs! We are all about continuous growth, kindness, and enjoying time spent together. Please let me know if you are interested in any behavior work with your pets and I would be happy to discuss how my training may best support your pet during their time with us. My passion for proper pet care is endless and I can't wait to meet your pets! Zoey can't wait to play, either! :)
Reviews
Our girls love Katie and her sweet pup Zoey! We know they are in good hands whenever she is watching them!
Hades stayed for a little over a week. Katie always emailed me if there was a question. Katie is a very caring dog sitter. It was like dropping him off at home. The arrangement and accommodations were perfect!
Katie is passionate and loving and the best person for the job. She loves all dogs and people. She is responsible and cares so much about others, especially let’s. Any family would be lucky to have her walk their dogs.
Katie has been around dogs her entire life. She currently has her own pet that she adopted through a humane society. She shows much love and respect towards her canine friends. I would highly recommend her to help care for your furry family member!

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my first priority with any dog. I have a long lead leash to use in my unfenced yard for potty breaks and will take your pup on plenty of leashed hikes on the superior hiking trail just out of my backyard. I have wood floors, so no worries of any accidents that may happen! My puppy sleeps with me, so any overnight stays would be at your comfort level with your pet in the bed. As I do allow my pup on my couch and bed, I am very respectful to those who keep pets off and will foster that just as you would in my home. I do have a large crate for my pup that any of your pets are welcome to use during their stay for either play breaks or an overnight sleep.
