Full time pet sitter.

Pet care experience

I am a dogs and cats lover! I have the experience of raising a small sized poodle dog and a medium sized border collie when they were 3+months to 2+ years old. Since my neighbors and friends know I love these "furry kids" so much, they relied on me to walk, feed, and babysit their "kids". I currently living without any pets, it would be my pleasure to take care of your furry ones. =)

Katie was fantastic with our dog’s 5 day stay. She is so incredibly caring and sweet. Katie sent many pictures, videos and updates throughout the day. Our dog was in the best hands which allowed my family to have a worry free vacation. We will definitely be using Katie again!

What can I say? Katie was absolutely amazing. She took great care of our dog and kept us updated frequently with texts and pictures! Usually travelling without our pet is stressful but Katie made it so we always knew what our dog was doing taking away all of our stress. She also was very understanding when the flight home was delayed by 10 hours!! Thank you and we will see you soon!!

Bailey had a great time staying with Katie. Bailey can be nervous when it’s rainy and windy but Katie was sensitive to her needs. Her home is very dog friendly and she sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely use her again.

Katie was amazing with our old and anxious pup. She was very accommodating and was very reassuring with some unexpected challenges- our dog was not able to negotiate their stairs. I would highly recommned!
