Love dogs of all ages.

Pet care experience

I have had large dog breeds since I was 5 years old. During college I volunteered at the Texas State Aquarium rehabilitation hospital, where I learned veterinary techniques for all animals. This past year I worked as an animal care specialist in Alaska for exciting animals. I am trying to earn some additional money to go back to Alaska soon and would love to help take care of your fur babies! I lobe caring for any all dogs. My oldest fur baby just passed away at the age of 18 so my dog and I are missing going on play date adventures. If your dog would rather just snuggles and stay at home with minimal activity, I can do either. Let me know what your baby would prefer and I will do everything I can to make the time apart from you as fun as possible.

Katy was great with my two dogs- kept us informed about them while we were away and we care home to a neat house with happy dogs! A great sitter and we would be happy to book her again!

I worked with Katy at the Alaska Sea Life Center and saw first hand how sweet and caring she is with animals of all shapes and sizes! We would house sit and dog sit together and she was always respectful of the owners homes and took especially good care of their pet as if they were her own. She even called in late to work one day to stay at home with a client's sick pet so she wouldn't be alone!! If Katy still lived in Alaska I wouldn't hesitate to call her at a moments notice to watch my dog Jetta!!

Katy is definitely someone I would want taking care of my dog. She is reliable, caring and a dog lover. She has plenty of experience of taking care of all kinds of dogs and is someone I highly recommend.

Information Katy V. would like to know about your pet

If they are friendly with other dogs. I would like to take care of the dogs together, but I understand some dogs like all the love so I can give your dog my undivided attention.

A typical day

I go on 1-2 mile walks every morning and evening. I have a fenced backyard and love to spend a lot of time out there playing ball or tug-o-war. On my days off I like to take my dog on adventures to trails in the hill country or the dog park, so if your dog would like a friend, my dog and I will be a perfect fit.
