I'm paws-itively purrfect for you!

Pet care experience

I am a true animal person and have owned dogs my whole life. In highschool, I spent my extra time volunteering at a veterinary clinic. During my time there I dealt with various types of dogs and cats. I learned so much while volunteering there. On top of my volunteer work, I have been trusted to dog sit/cat sit in my community since I was 14. Growing up I participated in my local 4-H club, where I learned so much about animal temperament, the signs of medical attention, how to properly care for various animals and more.

Katie was fantastic! Did everything that we asked of her. She was great in keeping us posted as to what was going on after each visit, and we were able to relax on our trip knowing our cat was in good hands.

Katie did a great job with our two cats. She was friendly and easy to work with.

Katie was a delight. She was very comfortable with our older lab and made him comfortable. She was very responsive and helped us on short notice. We will definitely have her take care of loved one in the future!

My crazy rambunctious boy was in fantastic hands and came home tired and wore out (: Highly recommend and will have back again soon!

Safety, trust & environment

I am a very easy and go with the flow person. If you would like your dog to be crated I can do that or if you'd rather prefer your dog to free roam that also works for me. I want your dog to feel safe and at home while in my care. I do not have any pets currently living with me. While your fur baby is in my care I send tons of photos and updates every morning and evening. I am very transparent and love communication. If you ever have any questions please feel free to ask!

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know how your dog's temperament is with other dogs! For the safety of me, other dogs in the community, and your fur baby. Also, if your dog or cat needs to take medication please have the instructions written down either on a piece of paper or sent to me via text.

A typical day

I love to keep the dogs not only mentally entertained but physically entertained during their stay with me. However, I always base the activity level off the dog. No dog is the same. Some dogs can handle the long walks through the nature trails while others just need a an easy walk around the neighborhood. Some places I'll take the dogs is Bonita Beach Dog Park, Koreshan state park, Bonita Springs dog park, and more!

I am currently a student at FGCU, however majority of my classes are online so I am home most of the time. When I do have to go on campus, I am only there for an hour at a time. I am very active and love taking time to go on runs/walks. You can expect for your dog to get plenty of activity!
