Information Katie T. would like to know about your pet

I am very comfortable with dogs, just like people they have their own preferences and triggers . My little guy has anxiety with new people and is terrified of quick movements. Just let me know if yours has any anxiety, triggers, or is food aggressive. It’s not a problem , I can make adjustments to ensure it’s a good experience for them and me :)

A typical day

I have floor to ceiling windows with lots of good people watching. My dog sits there for hours looking at everything and all the people. We play, snuggle, and take walks multiple times a day

Pet care experience

I am a WFH doggie mom that will love on your pup like I do my own. My little is a playful puggle rescue that loves other dogs and doesn’t mind sharing his toy bin. You will find toys all over the place in my apartment usually stashed in between couch cushions or buried in the sheets of my bed. While my little loves to play, he loves to relax, even more so really high, high energy dogs are not a good fit anymore :( My little guy gets anxiety when he’s in a new environment, so I am very sensitive to other dogs with similar challenges and I will dote on them even more. Animals have always been apart of my life. Growing up my family had rabbits, birds, turtles, mice, cats, and various breeds of dogs (my mother IS Dr Dolittle) so I'm pretty comfortable around different personalities and breeds. We’ve always treated our pets like our favorite member of the family and we would even tuck our dogs in when I was little … I miiiight still do that 🫣

Our senior dog had a great stay with Katie and enjoyed hanging out and snuggling with her pup Henry and other visitors. We got lots of updates and would be happy to have him stay with her again!

Katie was amazing. She has a good knowledge of dogs and she’s really sweet, and super understanding. She was/is the only person I felt comfortable leaving my dog with. I will be booking more in the future. Thank you Katie
