Pet care experience

I take an immense amount of pride in caring for all sorts of animals. I truly believe taking the time to get to know their personalities is key to having a great experience with them. All animals have different personalities, tending to their needs is important for them to feel safe and comfortable. When it comes to animals, I understand that they are more than just animals. Each pet has their own personality, preferences, and situations they are comfortable with. I will not treat each pet the same, but I will get to know your pet, learn what makes them unique, and tailor how I interact with your pet based on their personality. Does your dog love to wrestle and play? I can do that! Do loud noises scare your dog? You can bet my sitting style will be calm and quiet. I understand the uniqueness of your furry family member, and will treat them with absolute respect and care! Kindness to animals is important to me. I can't wait to get to know your pet! Pet owner all my life, I'm comfortable with a wide range of animals, including exotics. I'll feed your snake as well as your dog. I also watch cats! Kitties need socialization when their people are away as well, feeding, water bowls filled, and those pesky litter boxes tended.

Information Katy B. would like to know about your pet

Since it is my mission to get your buddy’s tail wagging, I want to know as much as possible about your friend. Every dog is unique, so I look forward to letting the owner tell us about his or her pooch. For the safety and well-being of your pet & myself though, I do have a few general questions: -How does your pooch react to other animals/people -Food Preferences/Allergies -Triggers (Noises, Lights, Colors, Animals, etc) -Current Schedule -Does your dog have leash training -Sleeping arrangements -Does your buddy have any medical conditions -Is your pal spayed/neutered -Vet Information None of this will deter me from watching your dog. Your responses will just help me prepare for the safest, most comfortable experience for everyone involved.

A typical day

Able to go running, walks through your neighborhood or on a nearby trail. And well experienced in belly rubs. While I love to have fun with dogs, I understand the importance of training a dog and working with them to have good habits and am willing to accommodate your preferences.
