Pet care experience

I am a Southern Oregon native with a natural love of dogs! I grew up running with my golden retrievers and labs on the trails, and truly miss spending time with furry friends! In my household pets and not just fun and cuddly friends, they're family members and taking care of them is of the utmost importance. Going on walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, and snuggles are all important aspects to me when taking care of a dog, and I am eager to share some of my enthusiasm and love with your dog! I have spent the last three years at UPS, and have felt the lack of dog connection from my own three dogs (Albert, Brutus, and Tia) back home. Trust that when your dog is in my care they will be cared for as if they were my own and receive the highest level of love, fun, and responsibility.

Katie is great! My dog Jack stayed with Katie and we had a phenomenal experience. She updates you with photos and is very compassionate and caring towards those she cares for. She is very friendly and attentive which made me feel more comfortable in using Rover the first few times.

Katie is a wonderful caretaker for our pets! We were anxious about leaving them, but Katie reassured us every step of the way with photos and updates! We returned to very happy and exercised dogs! I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!

Information Katie S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any specific dietary or medical needs, as well as the dog's temperament and how they interact with other dogs to best accomadate them. Additionally, I would like to know if they have any routines, toys, or other comforts that would make their time away from you more comfortable. Finally, what kinds of expectations do you have of me as a caretaker to maximize your pet's enjoyment while away.

A typical day

Depending on your dog's needs, we can do a variety of activities! As a Tacoma local, I spend many afternoons running and walking along Ruston Way, Owen Beach, Titlow Beach, and other dog friendly areas! But if your dog requires less physical activity and more at-home attention, relaxing time with toys will definitely be on the agenda. My highest priority is to accomadate both the personality and preferences of your furry friend to make their stay and your experience as comfortable as possible. At the end of the day, your dog will be well loved and taken care of from a wide variety of activities including walks, playing fetch, snuggles, and playing with toys!
