Pet care experience

Welcome to my Rover profile! With a lifelong passion for animals, especially dogs, I offer reliable and loving pet sitting services tailored to meet your furry friend's needs. Growing up with dogs as integral members of my family, I've been entrusted with their care since childhood, fostering a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. From assisting in raising a puppy with my former roommate to traveling back home to watch my parents' dogs during their travels, I've accumulated extensive experience in pet care. With me, your beloved pets will receive the utmost attention, affection, and responsible care while you're away.

Katy has had lots of experience working with small to large breed dogs within our family, as well as at her father’s doggie day car business. She is a professional businesswoman by day, is very patient and responsible and is looking for a night/evening hobby.

Safety, trust & environment

As a dedicated pet sitter, I exclusively provide services at the owner's apartment, ensuring that pets remain in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable. With a keen understanding of each pet's unique needs, I tailor my care approach accordingly, whether it's adhering to feeding schedules, administering medication, or engaging in enriching activities to keep them happy and healthy. My commitment to being a reliable and attentive caregiver extends to maintaining a clean and safe environment for pets while respecting the owner's space. Through open communication and a genuine love for animals, I strive to exceed expectations, earning the trust and satisfaction of both pets and their owners alike.

Information Katy B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know the following about your pet: 1. Relevant medical history that I need to take into account 2. What their temperament and behavior is like around new people and dogs around the city 3. Their daily routine and how to keep them consistent with the care they receive while you're home

A typical day

During my pet-sitting sessions, I prioritize engaging and entertaining activities tailored to each pet's personality and preferences. Whether it's playing fetch at the local park, going for leisurely walks around the neighborhood, or enjoying interactive puzzle toys indoors, I ensure that each furry friend receives plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Additionally, I love incorporating activities that cater to specific interests, such as practicing basic obedience commands or indulging in relaxing grooming sessions. With a focus on promoting happiness and well-being, I guarantee a fun and fulfilling experience for every pet under my care.

Since I work remotely, I'll be available throughout the day to look after your pet during weekdays. Occasionally, I have volleyball games after work once a week, which may require me to be away from the apartment for a few hours. As for weekends, my plans vary, but I'll ensure that my availability aligns with your pet's needs before confirming any booking. Rest assured, your pet's well-being and schedule will remain a top priority.
