Professional and will love your pup

Pet care experience

I've always owned dogs and began helping take care of them when I was 8 years old. My family primarily owned golden retrievers, but I have interacted with all breeds. When I went to college at Texas A&M University, I joined Aggie Guide Dogs and Service Dogs. I trained a service dog for a year (I got him when he was 8 weeks old), using solely positive reinforcement techniques. Upon the dog's graduation and placement, I served as the Trainer Supervisor for two years, teaching members how to train using positive reinforcement and managing an average of 10 trainer/puppy teams. Through this program, the service dogs-in-training were taught all basic commands, advanced commands, general socialization skills, and, of course, how to play! I can guarantee that any puppy or dog that I interact with will be professionally handled and safe, but mostly, loved! Your pup will always have fun and will be treated in a positive way!

When I started my search for a mid-day dog sitter I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. But Katie has been truly wonderful. Reliable, timely, and most important, puppy approved. I consider myself truly lucky to have found her. I touched base with a couple of other folks that balked at the idea of checking in on a 4 month old giant breed puppy, but Kaite has been great with Impedance, totally comfortable with his puppy shenanigans. (As a bonus, she’s pretty good at doggy photography and I’m slowly building a collection of cute puppy picks from every visit.)

Katie was amazing with our 3 dogs while we were away! She sent lots of pictures and updated us daily on how Duke, Mila and Maggie were doing. She was very professional and trustworthy. We would definitely use Katie again! It was so nice knowing our dogs were loved on and played with everyday we were gone. I'm pretty sure all 3 of them are missing her!

Katie is absolutely phenomenal with dogs! She has years of experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages, and has successfully trained (and overseen the training of) multiple working dogs. I would trust Katie with my two boys any day, and always have peace-of-mind that she will treat them as her own - with love, care, patience and kindness... and a whole lotta fun! If you're considering Katie to watch your precious pooch, you can rest assured that they are in the best of hands!
