Dog Day Afternoon

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs all my life. Most recently I fostered a senior dog and 6 years ago I adopted my senior pup Eddie who recently passed away at 16. I have experience with puppies and all kinds of dog breeds. Having used Rover I know what it’s like to be worried about leaving your dog behind. I’m a major dog lover and will take great care of your pup! I live in a house with a fenced in yard and know of lots of areas for walks and fun. If your pup stays with me they’ll have to get along with my 8 year old cat, Riggins, who thinks he’s a dog himself, and my 8 year old yorkie mix, Leyla, who is sweet and keeps to herself. I also recently adopted a lab/shepherd mix puppy named Finn! He loves to play! I work for a children’s nonprofit from home so I’ll be able to spend lots of time with your pup. Feel free to ask me any questions!

Katie sent us pictures and kept us in the loop. Her dogs were super sweet and I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in her care.

Katie did an amazing job with my two senior dogs. She took the time to meet with them before their stay to make sure that they would be comfortable. Katie sent me many photos during their visit. I would absolutely use her services again and recommend her highly. It is very clear that she is an animal lover and treats all of them like her own. Thank you for taking such good care of Lucky and Laci!

This was the first time my 12 year old dog had ever stayed with someone other than family. Katie was awesome! My dog went right in and made herself at home. Katie sent pictures to me daily and I could tell my dog was very comfortable and well taken care of. I’m so glad to find a person that I trust to dog sit. Will definitely use Katie again!

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I have a lot of experience administering pet medications and senior care. Would love to know ahead if your dog is a chewer so I can make sure they have lots of chewable items to play with!

A typical day

I love exploring outside so I’m happy to take lots of walks. I also have an enclosed backyard so we can lounge outside and enjoy some fresh air!
