Highlights
Pet care experience
K9 and Kitty Care by Katie
As a child, my family always had pets. I got my first cat right out of college and my own dog a few years later. I got connected with a local rescue in 2015 and have fostered since then. I was on the board with the rescue as well. I have a lot of experience with taking in and helping new animals get settled for however long their stay with me will be. I have taken care of over 50 foster animals, both cats and dogs, wee kittens and orphaned puppies. I often take medical cases or animals who have been abused and neglected. My experience is broad, and I take pride in providing the best care possible to any animal that comes into my home. I am a special education teacher, but my evenings and weekends are typically very open. I work rather close to my home, so in the event I have an after school meeting, I always come home on my lunch to let everyone out to potty. I am home for all major holidays and would love to provide a safe and caring environment for your pet while you are away! My neighborhood is rather quiet and good for walks. I also live very close to Heartland Park and Quail Ridge Park which are great for walking. I have dogs of my own, and they are very used to having new friends come and go. They love to play and sleep and cuddle. I also have cats, so any overnight guests must be cat friendly.

Thank you!l for taking care of Trixie!
As always, reliable, great with the pups and goes above and beyond (brought packages in off the porch).
Katie is the best. My kittens love her and she is so dependable.
Pepper was well cared for and Katie was super patient with his reclusive behavior in a new environment. Very communicative throughout the whole stay. Would definitely book again!

Safety, trust & environment
My dogs are very friendly and love to play. They have all been regulars in doggie daycare and enjoy the company of their dog friends!
Pets
A typical day
Dogs that stay with me will enjoy walks through my neighborhood. My dogs enjoy peanut butter kongs when I have to leave. There is almost always someone playing with a toy or chewing on a bone! Naps are also essential around here after a fun day of play!
