Availability

My schedule can be a little tricky to reflect perfectly in the app since I work full time with a rotating schedule that changes monthly. I work three 12-hour shifts (6 a.m.–6 p.m.), so my availability varies by day. On workdays, I’m generally only available in the evenings, while on my days off I’m more flexible and can accommodate morning, midday, or afternoon care. Because of this, I encourage pet parents to reach out with specific days and times they’re looking for, and I’m happy to confirm what works best!

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I am caring for pets in their home or mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm environment where pets feel comfortable. In your home, I follow your routines closely to keep things familiar and stress-free.

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

The main things I like to know are any sensitivities they might have. I am more than happy to take dogs on walks, but it is helpful to know if they are friendly with other animals and people. If they are shy, it is also helpful to know what helps them feel more comfortable.

A typical day

I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy and comfortable. I will take dogs on walk, whether it is around the neighborhood, the Riverwalk, or whatever you prefer! I also have a dog park at my apartment, so they can play. I am also more than happy to just hang out and keep them company while their owner is away!

Pet care experience

I have had the joy of caring for dogs of all sizes, from Mini Australian Shepherds to German Shepherds, as well as my own cat, Roxy, who has been with me since I was 13. I have had the pleasure of looking after the pets of family and friends, building strong connections with each animal and their owner!

We had a wonderful experience with Katie! She took such great care of Ivy and Floki and kept us updated throughout each visit, which meant so much to us. It’s never easy leaving your pets behind, but Katie made us feel completely at ease. We came home to two happy pups and couldn’t be more grateful. We would absolutely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again in the future! 🤍🐾

Katie treats June with just as much care as we do. We appreciate her so much and June had a great time on her walks!

Katie is great. We have used her before. She took care of our four cats while we were out of town.

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.
