Experienced clicker trainer

Pet care experience

I just moved to Seattle from Massachusetts and would love to dog sit while I look for full time employment! I will continue to sit on a part time basis once I have received such employment. I have 5 years of professional dog sitting and dog walking experience. I have built long lasting long term pup sitting relationships, as well as plenty of one time pup walks and sits as well. I have 3 years of experience raising and training guide dogs. My first pup is now a guide dog for a college student in NYC! My second is my 75 lb yellow lab named Olana, who is a sweet, loving lady who thinks she's a lap dog (probably because I let her be one). She is super friendly and playful! We also just adopted a one year old hound mix named Ella who is a complete love bug and a perfect sister for Olana! I have been a dog lover all my life and dog owner for most of it. My apartment complex also has two fenced in dog parks!

Katie was so accommodating and loving with Saul! She sent pictures and updates of him every day, which I very much appreciated. We will definitely be asking her to watch Saul in the future :)

Katie is THE queen of dogs. She has trained them for Guiding Eyes for the Blind, walked them, loved them, owned them, and is also one of the most knowledgeable people about dogs that I know. She is responsible, timely, personable, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs help with their pooch.

Katie has always been a dog person. She intuitively understands their needs and they love her. She's incredibly responsible and has a natural ability to train and care for them.

Information Katie S. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting your pup I just need to ensure that they will get along with my pup! She is very easy going and gets along with everyone, so this shouldn't be a problem!

A typical day

I will run with your dog if they're up for it! We can also enjoy a leisurely stroll through a local park, or a busier city walk in the neighborhood with lots of smells to sniff. They can also enjoy games of hide and seek with me and my pup in the house, as well as long rounds of tug with my pup. I also make really yummy kong's, if your pups diet allows for such items.
