Pet care experience

I'll treat your pup like my own!

I'm a lifelong dog lover who would love to meet your pup! I currently have a one year old cockapoo flufflball and grew up with a quirky bunch of spaniels and spaniel mixes. I'm well versed in all things dog, and I'm happy to report back on how your fur baby's day is going. I’m big on providing personalized care for your pup, whether that means bringing a doggy bottle along to keep them hydrated, just playing inside, or keeping them calm during a thunderstorm. I have been walking on the Wag app for about a year and I currently have over 100 five star reviews. I pet sit for friends on occasion (we always have the best time!) and for daycare and boarding I'd be open to hosting 1-2 pups at a time as long as they can get along with my small doggo! Please message for more info or a meet and greet.

Very grateful that Katie has agreed to walk our two dogs! She came over for a meet and greet to let them get to know her and is a great communicator.

Kaite is very friendly and communicative. My senior pup comes with some mobility challenges but she was patient and made sure he enjoyed his walk. Would recommend and will be using again!

Katie was very easy to work with! She was responsive and very willing to handle our older pup who needs to be carried. She kept me in the loop how things went. We would for sure use her again!

Katie was an absolute Gem. She was the first person I started communicating with on Rover and after our Meet & Greet, we knew she was a perfect person to take care of our beloved Rango. She didn't disappoint. She took care of our dog as if it were her own. We will definitely be setting up future services with her. We strongly recommend Katie.

Schedule

I work remotely for most of the day, so I have time to hang out with pups and take them out for walks/potty breaks. I usually provide toys and some sort of chewing activity to keep them occupied while I'm on calls or doing emails!

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, I have a fenced courtyard, and will crate your pup when I need to leave the house if needed. Pups are generally given a longer walk in the afternoon and trips to nearby Horner Dog Park if possible!

Pets

A typical day

Playtime with my very social Cockapoo, Maisy. Belly and butt scratches galore. Yak cheese, bully stick, or marrow bone chewing time (dietary restrictions permitting). Walkies around Irving Park or Horner Park's exclusive dog area. Tug of War. Brushing time (if needed). Dogster puppy ice cream in the summer. Supervising the neighborhood on my chicken wire-protected balcony, Pupdates via photo or video. A spot in our bed to sleep!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Katie can host up to 2 pets per night
I would need to know if your dog is up to date on vaccinations and is neutered (males only). I would also need to know if he or she plays well with other dogs and is crate trained, as I will not be able to have the dogs running freely if I need to leave the apartment. Due to Maisy's size, I would need your dog to be 40 lbs or less.
