I'll treat your pets, like my own!!

Pet care experience

I realized over twenty years ago that animals are my passion. Throughout my life I have been lucky enough to gain experience with multiple animals while working at a petting zoo, a few ranches, a dog rescue, and of course through trial and error in my own house. These experiences ultimately reinforced my love of all animals. When it comes to being a dog sitter, not only do I have some proper dog training in working with dogs of all breeds, but I also used to dog sit while living in New York. At that time I had multiple repeat clients due to my love for their animals and my knowledge of dogs, big and small. Breeds are no issue for me, I welcome them all! I also take care of other animals as well. Reptiles, cats, birds, even farm animals! If you have that big boa or that lazy llama, just send me a message and we can discuss all the caregiving options I have to offer. I'm also willing to drive farther than the 15 miles, message me to discuss details. My dream one day is to open my own rescue for all animals. I want animals to know that there is always love out there for them as well. Let me help you with your pet, I will put as much love and attention into them as I do with my own. I do have cats, but if your dog is not cat friendly, the kitties can be put in part of the house away from your dog!

My dogs love Katie. She has watched them before and they remember her fondly. They get lots of love and hugs. She fed them on time and gave them water and played with them. I’m happy that she is not afraid of my large doggies. She kept me updated during the 2 week period and even sent me photos of my pups. She also kept the house in good order and brought in the mail (yay!). I’ll definitely welcome her back.

A few months back I was looking for a special someone to watch both of my girls (pits). I dod a meet and greet with Katie at a local park to see if she and her dogs were compatible with my 2. Never in a million years did i ever think i would find someone to connect the way she did with my special needs girls. Not only did she exceed my expectations she won over the hearts of my girls. Now my girls look forward to going to Katie's. Up until now I have never had a dog sitter for either one of my dogs. I have used Katie several time since and will continue to have her watch my girls in the future. Me and my girls absolutely love Katie.

Katie was incredibly helpful with my dog that has separation anxiety. She went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable by taking him on walks and even letting him sleep with her. She also gave me reassurance that our dog was doing well with check ins and photos. Thank you, Katie!

I'll need to know if the dog is kid friendly, cat friendly and other dog friendly. Any known aggression issues? Dietary restrictions? Medications?

I can take them on early morning walks or evening. When it's a little cooler out. I can also take them to the dog park. I go hiking as well, if your doggy likes hiking, let me know!
