Flexible schedule, cats & dogs!

Hello! I'm Katy, and I spent the last 11 of 12 years working in Student Activities and Orientation at universities. In January 2026, I decided to make a big change and switch careers - which is why I'm now in Cosmetology School! I have a bachelor's degree in Graphic Design and Photography, and a master's degree in Higher Education Administration. Through my experience working at a university, I've also become incredibly detail oriented, great at multi-tasking, able to work with many different personalities, and I'm very used to following outlined rules and regulations while planning far in advance for the best final outcome. Because I'm a photographer, I'll also get some great photos of your fur baby for you! I'm currently am very happily the human-parent of two kitties named Football and Nibbler, named after Adventure Time and Futurama characters respectively. I adore them with my whole heart, and will take care of your pets the way I'd want someone to take care of my own. I'd love to meet you and your pet, and see if we're a good match!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat my clients pets the way I would want someone to treat my fur babies. I love giving love and attention to animals, and providing whatever is needed to make sure they feel safe and taken care of!

Katy was fantastic with our cat and dog! They clearly adored her, and we felt so comfortable knowing she was looking after them. Communication was fantastic, and we got plenty of photos. We will definitely be asking her to look after them again!

We are repeat clients of Katy because she provides excellent care for our cats while we're away, including one who is normally incredibly shy of strangers. She is responsive, clearly loves cats and gives them good pets and scratches, and she always sends great photos. Another fabulous cat sitting experience!

Katy is the best! We are so thankful to have crossed paths with her. Can’t imagine having anyone else take care of our boy!

Schedule

I'm currently in Cosmetology School from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. every week day. I am using Rover as a source of income while I'm in school, and I'm available during the week after 3:30 p.m., and I'm more flexible on the weekends.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Katy can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Eating habits Temperament Activities/Toys they enjoy Any special needs No breed preferences, but I am a small human so larger dogs should be of a calmer temperament since some could potentially weigh more than I do. (I have been grass skiing because of a big dog that wanted to run, and it made me a bit nervous!)
