Experienced Full Time Care

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Katie. I am 22 years old, and have just graduated from the University of Minnesota. When it comes to animals, I don't mess around. I will wholeheartedly adore your pet as much as you do! I have extensive experience working as a bather at a dog and cat grooming shop. I have washed, walked, and played with all kinds of dogs and cats! I've learned so much from my time as a bather. Now, I have decided to take my love for animals and experience with them to a new job. Aside from my working experience, I've been a pet owner all my life. I've cared for a senior dog, and basically raised two cats from kitten to senior. Now, I own the sassiest and sweetest cat named Marmalade. She brightens up my day and adds such a wonderful element of companionship to my life - I truly love all animals. I also regularly sit for friends' cats and dogs when needed, and in the past, I've dedicated my free time to volunteering at my local animal shelter. I can work flexible hours, as well as overnights. I am responsible, hard-working, and have a passion for animals. When you book with me, you can be sure you will receive top-notch, consistent communication and that your pet will be in good hands. Communication is key, and so important to me because I know that you only want the best for your pet - rest assured that I do too!

I would leave Katie 10 stars if I could. She is truly a gift and I am so grateful she was able to look after our reactive Frenchie for a few nights over a holiday weekend so we could visit family. Katie was up for the challenge and met it head on with a calm and optimistic attitude. She took the time to really get to know our pup, and willingly participated in all of the crazy structure and routines we’ve established. Our dog was in great hands with Katie and it showed through all the updates she passed along. They were the best of friends and had a blast! We didn’t worry about him at all while we were gone. Thank you for giving us this peace of mind, Katie!

Katie was absolutely amazing! She was able to help me out last minute, on New Years Eve even. She was incredibly responsive and my dog was well taken care of. She always let me know when she was there so I had no worries. I would highly recommend her!

Katie was an amazing sitter. She was responsible, communicative, and most importantly took very good care of our dog. We will definitely recommend & use her again.

We'll stroll through the local neighborhood and any nearby dog parks! We can play with your dog's favorite toys, and I'll be sure to take lots of pictures of your pup having fun :) If your dog is a big cuddler, I will definitely spend lots of time giving them plenty of love and attention!
