K9 and Kitty Care by Katie
Pet care experience
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 several years ago and fostered for 4 years. 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 took medical cases or animals who had 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.
Reviews
Thank you again Katie!
Katie is the best!
Katie was so communicative and very kind to our dog! Kaiya had a great time staying over here and we would absolutely book again!
Another 5 star experience with Katie! If you are considering booking with her, you will not be disappointed. We had her for drop in visits twice a day for 6 days while on vacation. Our dog is getting older and requires medication which was no problem for Katie to administer. She sends thorough updates and lots of photos so we know our dog is being well cared for which eases our minds when we leave him. He does so much better staying in his own home vs the kennel. Thank you Katie for taking such good care of our boy!

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet
All dogs coming into my home need to be cat friendly. I do not have breed or gender preferences. My dogs are pretty flexible with their canine friends as I fostered and they have been around dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds.
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!
