Information Katy S. would like to know about your pet

It’s nice to know your dog’s interest, that way we can enjoy hobbies together. Or special food instructions so I am able to meet the dog’s needs

A typical day

We walk my dog nephew to the park. I go visit him and we play. The dog loves to run and meet new friends at the park.

Passion for Pups

Pet care experience

I have had dogs as a big part of my life the last few years. I find the pets so rewarding to be around. I love caring and playing with them. Hello, I’m very flexible on scheduling. I work from home so it’s easy for breaks. I have a beautiful fenced in courtyard and a dog park within a 5 minute walk. I am completely off weekends and nights. I have a 10 year old son who loves to play with my god dog and is very gentle with him. I treat pets like anybody else, with kindness and care. I’ve been a mom for 10 years so I’m use to tending to one’s needs

This was the first time we left our pup with anyone and it was an amazing experience. Katy took such good care of our dog Brownie; she sent pictures, videos, and updates which kept us at ease. Highly recommend to anyone who needs pup care.

very smooth + professional process. normally I check in a lot more often but felt comfortable knowing Leo was well taken care of + Katy was self sufficient so didn’t feel the need. that made for a much more relaxing weekend away. I already booked him for another stay with her this month, highly recommend!

Katy was amazing with our 25 lb goldendoodle! We reached out last minute as our typical dog sitter cancelled without much notice. Katy responded quickly and was willing to watch our pup for 5 nights!! She sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend and we knew our dog was in great hands! He was happy and healthy when we picked him up, and he was tired out from all the fun walks and play dates he went on. Thank you again Katy, we will definitely be reaching out to rebook in the future!

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.
