Future hobby farm enthusiast

Pet care experience

Dogs have been a part of my life since I was 5 years old when my family rescued a miniature poodle (who turned out to be a terror for my poor brother- oh Max!) I have read almost every dog training book and have become fascinated by how different dogs respond to different techniques. My love for dogs runs deep and keeping them healthy, happy and safe is of the utmost importance to me! Oh, and my voice will go up a few octaves when greeting your dog- I can't help it! Aside from falling in love with every dog I see, I have recently been introduced to the wonderful world of cats! For the past two years, I have dived head-first into trying to learn everything I can about them. Since rescuing our stray cat two years ago and recently adopting another one, I've learned to love them for all their quirks. I will treat your cat like family (if it wants, of course)!

Katrina and Kevin have taken care of my dog several times. They are both excellent people who are great with animals. Lola always really enjoys spending time with them and gets super excited when they're around.

Safety, trust & environment

I can crate your dog, if needed. I also have experience administering basic medication (including pesky pills). I am available to take care of puppies and do some basic obedience training while visiting or walking your dog. I can try obedience training with your cat, but have had no success with mine yet. Maybe yours will be less stubborn?

Information Katrina W. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know how you want others to greet your dog; if your dog has any personality quirks; what their training commands are; if they have any special needs; if they are okay being approached by other dogs and/or people; and if they dislike any environmental things (trees, cars, bikes, skateboards, small animals etc.).

A typical day

It all depends on the dog! Some dogs are good to play in a backyard, others like to play fetch, while others like a casual stroll. I'm open to any of it! I also love to intersperse any activity with some obedience training as I find it's the best "real world" scenario. One of my favorite things is to leash train and practice desensitization training. Watching dogs get better as each week goes by is so rewarding!
