About Katie S.

Dog skills

26 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Injected medication administration
Senior dog experience
Special needs dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I have years of experience with different personalities, training, and caring for a variety of animals! I also have a waist leash to be able to walk multiple dogs at the same time, if that is important to your family’s needs!

Information Katie S. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with reactive dogs (dogs that misbehave on a leash) but need to know so that neither the dog, or I are caught off guard! Knowing if a dog is able to have treats, what kind of treats, what kind of toys your dog responds to, or their favorite toy, if your area has restrictions on length of leash, and best routes to take on walks is always appreciated!

A typical day

I have a snuffle mat, food puzzles, and lick mats for mental stimulation. I also have a long distance lead to be able to play outside if you don’t have a fenced yard!

Pet care experience

Hey, it’s Katie, I’ve been taking care of animals since I was born! I’ve professionally dog and cat sat since 2018. The first dog I ever boarded was an elderly blind dog named Daisy. She sparked my love for taking care of other’s animals, it meant so much to me to see Daisy happy and excited to see me come home, even if her human had to go out of town! I have two dogs, two cats, and two birds currently! I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs, special needs dogs, and giving daily medications. Munchkin, my forty pound American Foxhound, hates the rain, has separation anxiety, and has epilepsy so he’s medicated daily.

Katie is an exceptional and comforting caregiver for all animals. I can always count on Katie’s dependability, dedication, and attention to deal when taking care of my sweet dog Rose, who’s eyes light up every time she sees Katie. She’s my go to person when I want the my dog properly taken care of and could not recommend her more!

Katie is such an awesome dog sitter! She is timely, understanding, and caring. She always makes sure that the dogs have what they need and makes sure to be gentle with them. She has been wonderful with both big and small dogs!
