Pet care experience

Home Fulltime, fenced yard, pre-vet

I grew up on a large horse farm, raising and rescuing abused/neglected great danes to mastiffs to daschunds! My first pup was a sweet black lab who set the course in my heart forever. I was Pre-vet at the University of Florida and spent many hours in the clinic with our four-legged friends as well as playingwith them. They are family! We miss our pup who recently passed and I love that my children long to have animals in our house again. We understand our animals are family and that is what we can offer...family! We would love to show your pup the love, play, snuggles and attention they need so you can enjoy your day with peace of mind. We welcome you!

Katie was absolutely amazing with our rambunctious guy. She spent a lot of time with him, took him on numerous walks, and sent us daily pictures of him. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.

Katie was great!! Her other pups were super sweet and I know Maple had a great time with them, as well as with her kids, who loved on Maple while she was there. I loved getting daily updates from her and would definitely use Katie again.

Schedule

My schedule is very flexible and I'm home most of the day every day except for picking up kids and running errands. I always ask what your pet needs to try to stay on their same schedule to reduce stress and anxiety. A good conversation is always the starting point!
