I treat your babies like my own 💞
Pet care experience
Hi! I am totally head over heels for dogs and cats and can't wait to spend some time with yours! I have been born and raised with cats and dogs of many breeds. Family and friends turn to me whenever their babies need looking after, as I'm always ready and willing to drop everything for a furry friend who needs some love or attention. I'm that person who hangs out with the dog at parties. I am a rescue mom, and have volunteered my services to the rescue community. Dogs and cats are my number one loves and my passion in life is bringing a happy wag to their tails and ensuring their safety and comfort at all times. I LOVE walking my own dogs around the neighborhood every chance I get, so your dog will have a great time exploring with me at whatever speed and energy level suits them best!
Reviews
Katie did a fantastic job! She was timely and communicative. Having her was a great peace of mind when I was away.
We are a repeat client and always feel that our pets are well cared for. Lots of updates and pictures let us know all is well at home.
My two dogs always have the best time with Katie!!
Katie is always a great go-to for drop-in or extended visits for our doggies! She’s so considerate in thinking about extra things like them getting wet in the rain and needing to be dried off! She’s so patient with our very energetic 9 month old puppy!

Safety, trust & environment
I'm often described as extremely organized and meticulous (I tend to plan my day down to the minute), and compassionate, always putting animals first. I've been told that I leave a client's house cleaner than I found it, and being punctual and maintaining great communication are also top priorities for me. I've really bonded with the dogs and cats I've met through Rover; I truly do treat your babies like they're my own. I have a fenced yard and a wonderful neighborhood for walks. I'm also just a three minute walk to a beautiful Webster Groves park where dogs love to explore safely on their leash. If staying with me overnight, I can follow any instructions you have in your home to stay consistent with your pup's routine. But they can also expect to be pampered, lounging on the couch, getting lots of cuddles, and plenty of play time.

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet
Just let me know anything special or important about your dog (behaviors to look for, preferences, etc.) so I can make our time together the best experience possible for them! I'm happy to schedule a Meet & Greet with you prior to any service! We can meet online via Zoom or Google Meet, at your home or a public place. Let me know what works best for you!
A typical day
I love to explore new routes on walks, and I am physically able to be as high energy as your dog needs me to be! Safety, fun, and good, quality exercise are my top priorities when taking dogs on walks! I also leave plenty of time for snuggles to help your pets feel comfortable and loved.

Availability
I am currently wide open, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet's needs. I am a high school teacher who is taking an extended break from the classroom, so rest assured I am a mature, professional, and responsible caregiver.
