Safety, trust & environment

I take care of my patients like I'd want someone to take care of my own pets, and I do the same with my pet-sitting clients. I know how hard it is to leave your babies in the hands of a stranger, so I do my best to make sure you are always updated and aware of how your pet is doing.

Information Katie W. would like to know about your pet

Are there any behavioral or medical issues I should know about? What are their favorite activities and rewards? What are their meds, feeding, bathroom schedule?

A typical day

I have a combination of high-energy dogs and couch potatoes at home, so I'm used to accommodating all energy levels. Whether they need a cuddle buddy, a hiking partner, or a ball-thrower I'm here for it.

I'm comfortable handling any medical emergencies that come up, and am well-versed in first aid. I'm also trained and very comfortable handling any behavior issues your pet may have.

We have used Katie more than once now to take care of our cat. She has been very reliable, sweet and has taken good care of Moonshine.

Katie was fantastic. We had 3 little Guinea Pigs that she took amazing care of. One had a health emergency while we were gone and she handled perfectly. Highly recommended!

Katie is absolutely amazing. We were having an incredibly stressful week and it was nice to know our dog was in great hands. Highly recommend, we’d love to have her watch Major again in the future.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
