Pet care experience

I am an experienced pet sitter who watches animals full time. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, horses, turtles, and birds. I worked as a barn manager for 5 years and have a lot of hands-on experience caring for all different types of animals on the farm. I'm especially good with anxious or timid animals that do best in calm environments. I am fit and strong and can walk your 85 pound dog that pulls on the leash, but I would prefer to host only small or medium dogs, as my apartment is pretty small. I don't own any pets at the moment so yours will be the center of attention. Since I work from home I have the time and availability to take care of pets that may have special needs or require multiple walks throughout the day.

Katie is amazing. She has patiently won over my very fickle kitty. I love her updates and I know my kitty is well taken care of despite my sometimes busy travel schedule.

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.
