Trusted Vet Tech and animal lover

Pet care experience

Hello everyone! Thank you for viewing my pet-sitting profile! My name is Katy, I am currently enrolled in veterinary technical school (my classes are online, don’t worry!)and have several years of experience as a veterinary technician with large and small animals, and general practice and emergency care. I am an experienced professional with several large and small breed, domesticated or farm animals (large animals case by case). Small animals with clinical and surgery experience. I also have my sweet dog and a rambunctious cat (I recently lost two of my cats, Tweety, and Miss Peepers, 😓 in 2023). The following are a few examples of the love, care, and service I will provide for your pet(s): ⁃ Regular walks, runs, or other outdoor activities. ⁃ Transportation to/from appointments or playdates. ⁃ Administering medications and treatment regimens as required. ⁃ Implementing dietary restrictions ⁃ In-your-home or out-of-home sitting is available in many formats, my schedule is fairly flexible and I can work with you and your pet’s needs! ⁃ Holidays and extended weekends are also available If you have a special situation or specific question, please feel free to message me! *Animals are my passion and caring for them is my continuing privilege! Thanks for checking out my page, I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!! Pet care is a part of my passion and daily life. I am a vet tech at a local clinic! I care for animals around the clock during the day, then I also have a tiny zoo at home myself! I will follow any and all restrictions for the needs of each individual furry family member. The feeding and potty schedule will follow as advised by you, along with any additional needs (such as medications). In addition, I will always leave your home tidy and take great care as if it were my own. I do work full time so please keep that in mind! I can stop in mid day to take your babies for a walk/let out, and I’m available overnight.

We love Katy! I have a special needs cat and she handled him with no problem (other than a little cat wrangling him from a few hiding spots!) She responded and communicated with us very well and I can't give enough stars. Thank you Katy!!!

Katy was so great! She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were taken care of while we were away! Will definitely be hiring her again!

Katy was great! She’s very sweet and communicative. I came home to two happy dogs and a clean house. Will not hesitate to use her again when we travel.

Safety, trust & environment

I always ensure that my clients home is left as it was found. I love when clients have home cameras so they can watch their babies, and to confirm that they are in great hands with me (and that your home is in trusted hands as well). I give frequent updates, pictures, and videos (if able) and highly encourage client interaction

Information Katy A. would like to know about your pet

I welcome all breeds and sizes! I ask for additional information such as dietary restrictions, allergies, medications, exercise, or any other habits that are necessary for the comfort and health of your pup! Please provide: *Feeding information (amount and frequency) *Medications (dosage quantity and frequency) if applicable *Potty schedule and habits *Exercise preferences *Home preferences (parking, entry, etc)

A typical day

My favorite activities with dogs are going on walks in the neighborhood, local parks, or your dog's favorite place to play! I also love to run with highly active dogs that need more exercise and activity due to their breeds and activity requirements. I love to be active so I can run with a highly active dog, or walk with a less active dog- whichever is preferred! For cats, I also love lounging and hanging out with them and just relaxing.
