Level 100 Petsitter

Pet care experience

20 years experience with all kinds of animals, rescuing and rehabilitating dogs and cats, and learning how to care for them with various health problems has made me a very competent pet sitter who thoroughly enjoys the job. I’m happy to adapt to you and your furred family members needs, whatever they may be. Comfortable and familiar with dietary needs, (I make my own dogs food) medical needs such as medication administration, or special training you prefer to use. My first two and oldest (15 years now) clients are a woman with 6 Yorkies and my neighbors with 4 cats and a backyard full of bonsai trees. I have experience with dogs ranging in size from 2lbs. to 200lbs., many breeds and situations. Special accommodations are possible in some cases, please let me know your first babies needs. Your loved ones will be taken care of like my own, with their safety and comfort being the number one priority.

Katie always does a great job with our cat! She is very detailed and makes you feel very comfortable leaving her to care for your pet.

I have used Katy consistently for about 3 years (you can see my numerous prior reviews). Katy remains as incredible as ever- I hope to never use any other sitter for our pet while we live in this area.

Safety, trust & environment

My number one priority is your loved ones safety and comfort. I understand that looks different for many, and while there are basics I follow (such as leash safety, ensuring harnesses are properly attached before opening doors or that no little paws are waiting to get caught in a door jam) I am happy to adjust.

Information Katy J. would like to know about your pet

I love all kinds of animals and I am happy to do my best to meet their unique needs. Do they have any triggers or special concerns? Dietary needs? Favorite toy or treat? Allergies? Behavior to avoid?

A typical day

We love to go on walks in the park across the street. 1 mile of walking trails and a creek full of turtles and fish. We take picnics and feed the turtles which Jet loves to watch, or when he's feeling adventurous even splash in the water.
