Experienced & Reliable Vet Tech

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my entire life. I have experience with animals of all kinds, except the scaly, slithering ones! I am currently employed as a veterinary technician and have been for 4 years. I hold a degree in veterinary technology so I am experienced in handling, training of all sorts (potty/kennel/leash), medication administration, and emergency/critical care animals. I know animal CPR and what to do in case of an emergency with your pet. I aim to provide a more pet-friendly environment than that of a boarding facility; that way your pet can receive the one-on-one time it deserves and is more used to with the owners. I am a big advocate for spaying and neutering, so all dogs that I sit for must be altered. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Katie was incredible! Our little Levi loved her, her baby, and her pup! He’s only 7 months old and can be a bit of a handful, especially at night when he demands to sleep in the human bed (we’re working on fixing this haha). Katie sent photos and updates on a daily basis and made us feel so comfortable and at ease!

All went as planned. Katie was awesome! Her pets were no problem as my Boston Terrier had got along fine with them. Highly recommend!

Katie is an amazing sitter! She took great care and was very attentive to our dog and 2 cats. I would definitely recommend her. She is very responsive, responsible, and I can tell that she cares about animals. I will give her 5 stars!

Katie was great for our dog Hazel she kept us updated and informed on her. Gave her a homelike atmosphere and worked with us great on when we picked up and dropped off Hazel.

Information Katie S. would like to know about your pet

Dogs must be well-behaved and mannered, altered, and preferably microchipped. Dog must get along with other dogs and small children as I do have a >1 year old daughter. A meet and greet (with my dog and daughter) prior to arrangements is highly recommended in order to ensure the best environment for your animal.

A typical day

I live in a large cul-de-sac that provides over 4 miles of quiet roads to walk on. Yard is small, but sufficient enough for small-medium dogs to get exercise while playing chase with my Jack Russell mix. ****Please note: I do charge an additional fee of $5 per night if you contact me less than 24 hours before the stay is set to begin****
