Katy can care for
Availability
I’m a full-time software engineer who works from home, so your pets will always have company. I can take dogs out for walks in the morning, during my lunch break, and again in the evening. If your pup is boarding with me, they’ll stay in a cozy home filled with love, attention, and gentle care — never left alone and always part of our daily routine.

About Katy T.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a cozy condo in Mount Pleasant, one of Vancouver’s most dog-friendly neighborhoods, with plenty of parks and walking trails nearby. My home is pet-safe and welcoming, with a secure patio for fresh air and playtime. My Shiba, Choco, is super friendly and loves meeting dogs of all kinds. I always follow each owner’s routine carefully — from feeding schedules to training preferences — and can crate your dog if needed. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, loved, and happy while you’re away.
Information Katy T. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, medical conditions, or unique habits so I can provide the best care possible. I also appreciate knowing their daily routines, favorite activities, and how they interact with other dogs. My own Shiba, Choco, is friendly with dogs of all sizes, so I want to make sure every interaction feels comfortable and positive for your pet.
A typical day
A day with your pup starts with a refreshing morning walk around the neighborhood — a great way to stretch, explore, and greet other dogs. After breakfast, we’ll enjoy fun indoor games like hide-and-seek, tug-of-war, or frozen licking treats to keep them mentally stimulated. During my work-from-home hours, your dog will always have company and attention. In the evening, we’ll head out for a long walk or stop by the dog park for playtime. There’s also a potty pad indoors and a fake grass potty tray on the patio for convenience. After dinner, cuddles, and one last potty break before bed, your pup will sleep happy and relaxed.

Caring for every furbaby as my own❤
Pet care experience
My love for dogs started when I was a kid, growing up with my grandma’s Pekingese — she filled my childhood with the best memories. After she passed, I knew one day I’d welcome a dog of my own, and now I’m the proud mom of a Shiba Inu named Choco. Before bringing Choco home, I spent months learning about dog behavior and positive reinforcement techniques. I believe dogs aren’t just pets — they’re like toddlers who need love, patience, and understanding. I completed a Pet Sitter Certificate Course (IAP) to deepen my knowledge and communication skills with them. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or emotional care, I treat every dog as if they’re my own.
Reviews
Katy is an excellent dog walker. She is very patient with our shy rescue dog. She is kind, attentive and very responsive. Our dog is quite timid and a very slow walker, Katy won her over quickly and walks her at her pace. We are very grateful to have Katy as a regular dog walker. We highly recommend her!
Katy is my go to person, she's responsive and reliable. I always know my furry guy is in good hands. Recommend 100%
So friendly and nice. Would highly recommend
Katy is SUCH an attentive caretaker, and our dog Tobi loves Choco, her Shiba Inu. Tobi came home and went straight to bed after a full day of fun. We would book again without hesitation!
