Pet care experience

Your pup is my pup 🫶🏻. Eye contact & energy is everything with animals. I have a weird ability to connect with and earn trust from dogs upon meeting. I'm kind, enthusiastic, and a trainer. I’m from California ☀️, played ⚽️ & own a home on the Northend in Manchester, NH with my husband nestled in a neighborly cul de sac with a back yard, and dog parks within 100 ft. I am very clean, organized, and communicative. What can you expect when I’m watching your pup 🙂? Cuddles on the couch, walks & playtime, regular potty breaks, nutrition, and good sleep. Relevant experience: Hospice Elderly care taker Kindergarten-8th grade Teacher High School Soccer Coach full & part time Nanny & Babysitter Camp Counselor US Embassy Representative & Volunteer

Katie was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we are very particular with our older Havanese. She was very communicative, sent pictures/videos during the day and asked clarifying questions if needed. We will definitely book with Katie again if/when we come back to Manchester.

My guy practically jumps out of the car for his daycare visits with Katie. In all fairness, he's really running to see Penny, Katie's pup and Oliver's new bestie 🤣🤣🤣

Katie was great with Chase while I was out of the country for 9 nights! It’s always nice to know he’s with someone who cares so much for the pups she watches. I would recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone to look after their pet!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
