I love your dog already.

Pet care experience

My name is Katie. I have grown up around different kinds of animals, especially dogs, my entire life. I have experience caring for a wide variety of pets all the way from mice to horses. I have worked in an animal hospital and am very good at handling dogs of all sizes. I am a student at UAB studying biology so my availability depends on my class schedule. Im usually pretty flexible though depending on the day. I am planning on going to Vet school and end up studying zoo medicine. My dog is my child and I love him more than most people. I study turtles in my professors lab in my free time. I am very responsible and good at communicating. I adore dogs and will provide the absolute best care for your fur children.

Took great care of Cooky and Max

One of the first things Katie asked me as I was getting to know her was what my thoughts were on animals. Seemed like a bit of an oddball question at the time, but I later came to find out just how much a question like that means to her and how much her own animals mean to her as well. She's a proud momma of (I forget how many dogs - multiple), a few ferrets, a bunny and assorted other creatures that she takes precious care of - and doubtless she'll do the same for your pet as well. You won't find a better Rover-er.

I can’t think of a better candidate to entrust with your dog than Katie. With the exception of only my mom, she loves animals more than anyone I know and her dog, Oliver, is more loved than many people are. You can rest assured that if you leave your dog in her care, he/she is in good hands.

Katie was great with my animals. She’s looked after my dog and ferrets for me several times when I’ve gone out of town. She’s always happy to take the time and walk, play, and make sure they are well cared for when I have to leave them. Overall a great pet sitter and would happily recommend her to others.
