Seeking pups to walk lakeside with!

Pet care experience

I work from home, offering dog owners tremendous flexibility in scheduling. I live in a pet-free apartment, so I can't have one of my own, which is where Rover comes in! I am responsible, loving, and active. I am very detail-oriented and keen on following care instructions to the 't', so you can trust that your pups will be in good hands. My family has always had dogs, first golden retrievers, and currently an old English sheepdog, so I've always been a part of their care management. Because I've seen several pups through their senior phases, I have experience in attending to their special needs. Since moving to Seattle, I have dearly missed having a dog in my life, so I will gladly shower yours with affection and love. Occasionally, my partner, John, will assist me in your pet's care.

Katie was super professional! She took great care of both my dog and my apartment. Was great to feel like everything was well taken care of while I was away!

I'll never forget the first night we brought Jake to our home. Jake, our rescued Golden Retriever, was so traumatized that he could not look at me and walked very slowly and stiffly. When we put Jake outside during the night, he just locked up and would not come back inside. Terry and I tried everything but he would not budge. That is, until our daughter Katie came out to help. With just one friendly call, Jake came over to Katie and followed her inside. Katie has a natural, disarming way with dogs that makes her a perfect dog caregiver.
