Young professional who loves pets!

Pet care experience

I have personally cared for pets my whole life, but have housesit for many different kinds of pets including dogs, cats, birds, fish, etc. for 15+ years. I have experience with both young and senior pets, as well as experience with pets who may have some additional healthcare needs. My throwing arm never gets tired and I love giving endless pets and ear scratches.

We were very happy with Katie housesitting our dog mojo. She checked in with us every day and sent photos showing the fun things they were doing. I was pleased with the clean way she left our house. I would definitely recommend Katie and would use her again in the future

Katie was so wonderful taking care of my two pups in my home while I went on vacation! I felt confident the whole time that they were in good hands, and I came home to two very happy dogs. I would absolutely recommend her!

Katie was truly amazing and a life savor for our pups! We traveled to Italy for 15 days in total and had her stay with our fur babies the whole time! Safe to say they were in wonderful hands! She took them for nice walks around the neighborhood, got the pool out for our black lab to play in, cuddled and loved them just like my husband and I would! We usually are always so worried about our dogs and constantly ask for updates but that didn’t happen with this trip, it was truly relaxing and reassuring that they were so loved and so well taken care of!! I would 100% recommend Katie to anyone and everyone! Thank you again Katie!
