I am a stay at home mom to 2 beautiful girls who also loves dogs as much as her mom. My schedule is very flexible due to me staying at home full time. This allows me to give full attention to your pets during their stay with my additional helpers.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very large fenced yard for your dog to be able to run and play in! My dog, Winston, is an 8 pound maltipoo who loves having fur friends come over and play! I also have a miniature schnauzer puppy, Wendy, who is learning to love to play with other dogs also! She is a little shy and timid at first with new dogs, but quickly warms up and is ready to play chase. I do not like to use a kennel unless absolutely needed or requested, so your pet will be able to have free range inside our home and in our fenced-in yard! My neighborhood has fully paved sidewalks which allows a safer approach when working on leash-training. I will make sure your pet gets plenty of sunshine, playtime, and exercise during their stay. I have plenty of toys for your dog to enjoy and they are more than welcome to bring their own toys as well! Once they are tired out, they are more than welcome to nap on our couches or bed. I want all fur guests to feel right at home!

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know any additional information concerning your pet before meeting them. For example, if your dog does not do well eating around other dogs. I will make sure your dog has a place to eat peacefully with no distractions! I also would like to know about your dog’s personality so I can gain the most trust with them. I know meeting a stranger can sometimes be hard or confusing for a dog so I want to make sure they are as comfortable with me as possible!

A typical day

My goal with each pet stay is to make sure your dog feels right at home, but also to meet their needs physically and mentally. I have a large backyard for plenty of exercise. We will play fetch, tug a war, and any fun games your dog likes. If your pet has any commandments or tricks you are wanting to teach them I will gladly work on them with your dog during their visit! During the warm summer days, I will have water days with your pet if they like to be in or around water. We have fun sprinklers and kiddie pools for them to cool down. I will make sure your pet has the best time while under my care!

Reliable, Loving Care For Your Dog

Pet care experience

With over 22 years of dog ownership and 17 years of dog sitting experience, I am a reliable and loving caregiver for dogs. My lifelong passion for working with dogs, coupled with my fascination in understanding how their minds work, has developed my expertise in providing personalized care tailored to each dog's temperament, behavior, and unique personality. My knowledge of various dog breeds and their specific requirements will enable me to offer customized care that addresses their individual needs. Since I was a little girl, I've taken care of family, friends, and neighbors' dogs while they were away. I also have training in leash-work for puppies and dogs who need help walking while leashed. I am currently pursuing additional certifications in dog training services to better meet the needs of every dog. I can't wait to meet you and your fur-baby!
