Passionate about dogs and people!

Pet care experience

Through and through, I am a dog person. I truly love all dogs. They have such natural empathy and infectious energy. I have experience taking care of many different breeds. When my sister delivered her baby, I took care of her Labradoodle, German shepherd, and two Pitbulls. I also have experience as a Dog Handler on a film set, working with members of the Animal Humane Society. Thank you for taking time to view my profile!

Ginger had a wonderful time visiting with her friend Katie. Extremely grateful she was able to brave the cold weather to visit my curly girl. Katie provided excellent service to my sweet girl that is only 4 weeks post op from a torn ACL. We look forward to Katie coming to walk and play again soon once all healed up!

Katie is the absolute sweetest. She goes above and beyond to care for my little curly girl. I love her sweet photos of their time together.

Katie was the perfect professional for a very different and difficult situation. We flew from out of town and were concerned about who would take care of our pup. Luckily, Katie had the perfect availability and showed both passion, care AND concern for our needs and our pup’s needs. Katie checked in on time and was able to spend quality time with our canine. I highly recommend Katie for anything she wants to do in life, especially as a Rover professional!

Katie was amazing!! She did great with my new puppy and eased my mind about having to leave her at home while at work!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by feeding, walking, and playing with them. I always make sure the dogs are comfortable with me by holding my hand out and offering a treat. If your dog is energetic, I will play with them outside. If your dog is calm, I am happy to pet them all day long. I know of many local dog treat shops and I would be happy to take the dog in to visit.

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or interests. I prefer breeds that are hypoallergenic, but I have the skills to care for any breeds.

A typical day

I will play with the dog at Garfield Park and walk to Three Dog Bakery Inc for a treat. When the dog is tired, we can cuddle and I will rub their belly until they are ready to play again!
