Dog Lover in Prospect Heights!

Pet care experience

I absolutely adore dogs and would love the opportunity to open my home to your pet! I live in a cozy studio with my boyfriend Michael in a beautifully maintained building in Prospect Heights, conveniently located right behind the Barclays Center and near several trains. The apt is on the 18th floor and gets good light, perfect for your dog to sunbathe or enjoy the view. We’re a short walk from Fort Greene Park & Prospect Park, so there’s lots of scenic options for short and long walks. I mostly work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company! I’m a responsible, loving and attentive caregiver. No children or pets of my own, so I’m able to lavish your dog with lots of attention. I’m dedicated to keeping your pet happy and safe, whether it's going to the park, sitting at an outdoor cafe or simply snuggling on the couch. I’ve been dog sitting for many years and am comfortable with a variety of well behaved sizes, ages and breeds. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Why I love dog sitting I’ve had a lifelong love for dogs. I volunteered with dog shelters when I lived in San Francisco and worked at a dog daycare in Chelsea, and I jump at the opportunity to dogsit and make new canine friends. My experience administering medication I’ve administered oral and external medication. If the pet is accustomed to it and I’ve discussed it with the owner, I’m comfortable administering medication.

Katrina was a dream! Our puppy had the best weekend full of cuddles, walks, and playtime. As for us, Katrina walked my partner and me through every step, answered all our questions, and kept us updated on how our little guy was doing. Katrina is THE person to call!

Katrina was incredible with my dog, Medgar. So thoughtful about making Medgar feel comfortable and at home, and it was clear how much Medgar enjoyed being with her. Katrina was great with updates and cute pictures and anecdotes about their time together. I will absolutely have Medgar stay with Katrina again.

Katrina was amazing as always! We got constant updates on Charlie and he loved all the snuggles she gave him, in addition to the great care she always provides our pups.

Katrina was incredibly accommodating and willing to watch my pup Rocky for a week when I had another arrangement fall through at the last minute. I was super stressed but she helped me feel at ease and totally confident in her ability to care for Rocky. He's very energetic and can be anxious, but instantly felt at ease with her and her BF. Thank you!!

Information Katrina B. would like to know about your pet

Their routines- eating and sleeping habits, what kind of play they enjoy most, grooming necessities, any separation anxiety or aggressive behavior, mendication (if any), other quirks etc.

A typical day

Because I have a flexible work schedule, there’s plenty of time to play and hang with your pet and enjoy walks. They can expect going to the park, sitting at an outdoor cafe and simply snuggling on the couch.
