pet care is my passion

Pet care experience

Hi there. My name is Katie and I previously worked full-time at a local doggy daycare. However, I absolutely love petsitting on the side, because it allows me to help fellow pet-owners, such as myself, feel at ease, while their pet is being taken care of by someone who cares and someone who knows what they are doing. My family owned several cats and dogs, over the years. There were also snakes, lizards, turtles and a few hamsters in my home, growing up. I am 39-years-old, with no kids but a very spoiled cat, named George, however my boyfriend watches him when I do overnight pet sittings. I have reliable transportation, can provide a clean background check, references, a resume and any other information you may need. I look forward to talking with you soon. Thank you!

Katie took care of my cat Mimi for two weeks. She did a great job of gaining Mimi’s trust and keeping her happy. She did what was asked and was honest about things she didn’t know or wasn’t sure of. Would highly recommend her.

Katie stayed at our home over the Memorial Day weekend with our dog Goldie. She has for sure earned our business since she is very attentive and took great care of Goldie. She sent us a photo each day and communicated with us as needed. Based on her feedback to us, Goldie did great with her. We have her booked again for a 10 night stay in a couple of weeks and I have no reservations about her staying at our house for that time period. I highly recommend Katie for any needs you have with pet sitting and even staying at your home.

Katie took great care of our dogs and house while we were away. Very considerate and kept us in the loop daily. Will definitely use her again.

Katie did great with our 2 Malteses. She has a love for animals and they just seem to flock to her. She was always prompt and friendly.

Oh my gosh, my cat is spoiled rotten! I don’t have a dog, only because I live in a small apartment and there’s not enough room. However, I think my cat enjoys being an “only child”. My cat is fed at regular meal times, has daily water changes and litter scoops. He also gets playtime when I return home from work, at night. As a result, he’s by my side 100% of the time, and that’s completely ok with me.

Information Katie S. would like to know about your pet

Any health issues or any accommodations your animal needs. I need to know if anything threatens their health. Also, I like to know their preferences for playtime too.

A typical day

I know the Missouri parks system pretty well, including all of the nearby State Parks and dog-friendly trails. If the dog is young and in good health, I like to go on walks at parks or in green spaces. Otherwise, a nice evening stroll, when it’s cool is always nice.

I am happy to do overnight pet care. It doesn’t interfere with my day job to stay over at a client’s house and care for their pet.
