We can never thank Katie enough for taking such wonderful care of our little old girl while we were away. Shorsey required a lot of extra patience and love. From managing multiple medications, special feeding and outdoor potty schedules, and changing diapers to giving her lots of love, Katie did it all with no hesitation. We're forever grateful to Katie and highly recommend her!

Doggy Day Care • Sep 22, 2025

Katie was incredible and Juno had a blast staying with her! This was our first time using Rover, and we needed an in-home doggy daycare for a few days of our vacation. Katie was the best communicator (prompt and friendly) and took great care of our pup! She went on multiple walks, had a basket full of toys to play with, and had her own doggie bed. We loved seeing pictures on her report card! Overall a wonderful experience and couldn’t recommend Katie further! 🙂

Everything went as planned!! I appreciated how Katie handled the job from start to finish! I enjoyed all the pics she sent and was able to see the dogs were being well treated! I also could tell from the pics that Remy and Piper really liked Katie! Thanks!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large yard and a tie-out stake that can be used under my supervision. My dog is calm and loves playing with dogs of all sizes. If your dog prefers being alone, I have the ability to shut off various areas of the house to keep the pups comfortable at all times. If you prefer me to come to your dog, I can also do that. I work remotely, so I can be on-call for your dog’s needs.

Pets

A typical day

I live right near walking trails, so long walks are a must! I also have tie-outs for more casual outside relaxation in the yard. During the summer, I can also take your dog hiking on the mountains.

I’d love to know about your dog’s favorite toys, his /her feeding schedule, bedtime routine, treat needs, and quirky habits. If they have any fears or triggers, knowing that can save everyone and your pup some stress.
