Dogs and Cats get all my attention!

Pet care experience

I LOVE both cats and dogs of all sizes! I have gone over to friends and neighbors houses to feed their dogs and check on their cats. I myself have had a Rottweiler for 11 years and currently have 2 cats. I worked at a Dog daycare (dogtopia) for over a year and have experience playing with dogs of all sizes! I am well versed in keeping a cleanly area for pets and cleaning up after them, I would work in a room with up to 40+ dogs and keep them all safe, clean, and having fun!

Katie goes above and beyond with my kids! She has been a staple since I’ve been in Huntsville and keeps me relaxed at work knowing they are taken care of! Marlee is a sick handful and she makes sure she is well taken care of, messaging me with any additional concerns. Would 100% recommend her!

Katie has sat for us before and was wonderful. Our flight was recently cancelled and Katie was available last minute and I am so grateful.

Katie has been phenomenal as our dog sitter for our baby boy, Max. I not only appreciate her cooperation with the general guidelines set but her love and patience too. Max is one of our rescues. A sweet boy but struggles with some anxiety. Katie has been excellent with loving on him and being patient. I plan to use Katie again. I would recommend her to anyone. Side note: Max is close to 70ibs. Katie has done wonderfully still. If you have a large fur baby and are worried about someone not being able to care for that size, Katie can and will absolutely perfectly.

Safety, trust & environment

I enjoy caring for pets and playing with them. While I love petting the fur babies, I also use it as a means to assess their health. I will watch dogs go outside and potty (and go with them), especially for small dogs. You never know when a critter wanders into the yard! I will make sure they take their medicine. And will monitor them when they are chewing on something.

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any behaviors your dog may have so I can make sure they are comfortable and safe while I’m taking care of them! Such things like where they don’t like to be touched, if they are possessive over certain objects, what they’re like during walks, etc.

A typical day

When coming over I love to play with the dogs mentally and physically. I won’t walk them during the day because the pavement is too hot for their pads. I’ll either walk them early in the morning or late at night.
