Pet care experience
Expert Pet Lover 😸🐶
Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking.

Safety, trust & environment
The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!
Ratings and reviews
Katie was absolutely wonderful! She watched our dogs, Nico and Nora, while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was always punctual, incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely loving with both of our dogs. She also made such a great impression during our meet-and-greet by being so sweet and patient with my little girl, which meant a lot to us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such caring hands while we were away. Katie is truly a wonderful person, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!
We would 1000% recommend Katie. Katie was kind patient with one of our dogs that takes a little while to warm up to new people, even making a couple trips out to take her on walks before we left. During our time away, a new medical issue came up for our elderly dog. Katie was amazing at communicating with us, taking her to the vet for us, helping 3 way call with the vet while she was there and keeping a watchful eye on her until we could return home. We found our house exactly how we left it, everything tidy and clean. We hands-down will be using Katie again knowing that our dogs will be well loved and taken care of while we’re away
Katie has taken care of our cats several times now while we go on extended vacations. She takes care of our home, our furry children, and does it all with loving care! We adore her! Highly recommend!
Katie has been an amazing caregiver for animals. In my time knowing her, she has taken excellent care of my of my pets. Including going beyond the expected and giving recommendations in how things could be improved. Be it better options when it comes to play or food and recommendations when there are health issues. She's very knowledgeable and I'm very grateful for the advice and help she's given me throughout the years.
Katie has shown a passion for animals since she was very young. Taking care of her own pets as well as helping provide care for rescued rabbits and spending time with farm animals while on family vacations, her love for the care of animals is limitless!
Katie is my go-to cat sitter for Figgy whenever we go on vacations or are just out of town for a day or two. She treats my cat as if he was her own. If I say I need her to come by once a day, she always comes twice just to make sure he is okay. I love all the pictures and videos she sends me of him getting treats, playing with the laser light, and just being loved and adored. She has cats of her own that I have watched before, and they are some of the most well taken-care-of cats I know. Aside from the animal aspect, Katie is one of the kindest, most funny people I've met. There is nobody I would trust with my animals as much as her.
