Safety, trust & environment

I am able to give your fur baby any medications that they require. I keep cleaning products in my car just in case there are any accidents. I will listen to your instructions in order to ensure your fur baby is kept safe, but also receives plenty of love!

Information Katrina M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to do a meet and greet before bookings if possible. I trust you and your dogs, but would like to make sure your dog is comfortable with me beforehand for the dogs benefit. Would like to know feeding schedule as well as what kind of treats your dog gets and how often. How does the dog do on walks? Does your dog have any personality quirks that I should know in order to not be concerned about their well being?

A typical day

We will play out all of your pet’s energy out and have a blast! There will also be lots of snuggles if the dogs enjoy that! All around a lot of love, attention, and fun! If you have a couch potato fur baby, that's fine too! I go with the flow to match each dog and their personality

Pet care experience

Use promo code KATRIM18705 for $20 off your first booking! Hello! My name is Katrina M. and I’m here to help take care of your lovely pets! I understand that leaving your pet alone with a stranger is a terrifying process for both you and your pet, which is why I ensure that I am very trustworthy, reliable, caring, and respectful; And I hope to ease your anxiety about leaving your pet. I also think quickly and can act quickly in an emergency, so your pet will get the best care possible! I’m more than happy and capable of taking care of any type of pet. I grew up owning dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, ferret, and reptiles, so I have experience dealing with most types of animals. I can do any sized pet and any age. If they need oral medications, I’m able to do so if needed. I am offering pet sitting/checking in on pets, walking, playing, feeding, giving water, baths, and light grooming. I will play with them until their hearts content so they can let off some of their energy, as well as give them plenty of love and attention! I ensure that while you are away, your pets will remain happy and have loads of fun! I will also, if wanted, send you photos and videos of your beautiful pet while you are away so you can ease your anxiety about leaving your pet with me, and ensure that your animal is in great hands and being well taken care of. I am an animal lover, and reliable to be there to help! I absolutely love animals and can’t wait to meet your awesome pets! You won't be disappointed in picking me or my service, and I'm excited to help take care of your pets and keep them happy and healthy until you return home to them! I will also take in the mail, water plants, pick up after the dog, clean litter boxes, etc. I am more than happy to give your pups a bath/groom as well! I do require at least a weeks notice for bookings. This will allow me to block off days for my other job, so I can focus solely on your fur babies!

KATRINA was OUTSTANDING!! We were in Hawaii for 9 days and she cared for our precious little poodle. She always communicated with us every day about how she was doing and ALWAYS sent us pics and videos.. My husband and I were very grateful to have found her and I HIGHLY recommend her 100% !!! she really is SO CARING AND AMAZING… if you’re looking for someone to alleviate your worries while you’re out of town, KATRINA is the ONE!!! We appreciate her so much!!! Thank you for EVERYTHING!!

Thanks so much for taking care of Aedan and Smalls. It's great to know they're in good hands and the photos and descriptions of them being their goofball selves always make me laugh.
