Caring and Attentive Pet Sitter

Hi! My name is Katy and I am 28 ; currently living in the Deer Park neighborhood of the Highlands, just a couple blocks away from Cherokee Park! I have a 3 bedroom, 1 bath corner house with a basement and loft - so plenty of room indoors for pups/kitts to wander around, explore, & play! I also have a large totally fenced in backyard w/ privacy fencing and locked gates so it’s safe and secure! Offering dog walking and/or dog & cat sitting services to anyone who is in need (for any duration of time)! Rover has been such a dream part time job for me. I’ve had a special connection with dogs and really all animals since I was a little girl so this has always been something I’d hoped I’d have the opportunity to do! I’m extremely flexible and I am willing to provide overnight care if ever needed! I love being outdoors and would be happy to take your dogs on as long of a walk as they can stand!

Safety, trust & environment

I do have a pup of my own! He is a 8 year old lab / Pyrenees mix who is just a giant baby & LOVES other dogs. For house / dog sitting, I will try my absolute best to make your pet’s schedule / activities / feeding & potty breaks, etc as similar to their normal routine as possible! I know how important it is for pets to feel comfort & security from routine consistency to their normal everyday life.

Thank you Katy! It was our first time leaving our kitten Jax she was great with him. She sent us videos everyday and we could tell Jax had the best time.

Katy was awesome. She went above and beyond to help me with the app as well as communicating about my two dogs. She was caring and fun with the newer puppy as she was with our older beagle mix. I trusted Katy 100% during her three drop in visits, which she completed on time and with lots of photos, and I’m looking forward to working with her again!

I have 15+ years experience with giving oral medication to dogs of all ages & sizes. I also always feed separately on boarding requests, in case food aggression has been an issue in the past. I am happy to do the same with toys if toy aggression has ever been an issue,
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
