Dog Loving Teacher

Pet care experience

My name is Katy. I teach 3rd grade in Fort Thomas! This past year we adopted a puppy named Hazel who loves to play with all dogs! She can be overwhelming for some smaller dogs so I liked to always do a meet and greet first if your dog is coming to our house. She has maxed out at 40 pounds, however I have grown up with Golden Retrievers and love dogs of all sizes! We are currently in obedience classes with Hazel so if you need me to work on training I would be more than willing to help. We have fostered two other dogs so we are also familiar with rescue dog’s needs! For Doggie Daycare and Boarding your dog can come to our house and have a play date with Hazel all day! We have a fully fenced back yard and gradual steps to the yard from our back porch. I am hoping to spend part of my summer vacation with dogs as I relax and rejuvenate for the upcoming school year! During my high school, college, and graduate degree I pet sat for a variety of families and could provide references if asked for! I hope to be a great help to you over the summer as well as weekend! I know the worry of leaving your dog alone for trips or for long days at work and I am more than willing to help relieve that stress!

To all Pet Lovers: I have known Katy for 10 years now. We met in college and became the best of friends, who then turned into family, when she married my cousin. Katy has an enormous heart when it comes to animals. She grew up with two beautiful Golden Retrievers and a horse named Tigger. Katy has fostered multiple dogs, and fell in love with a few in which one or more have become family to her and her husband. The love she expresses with each animal, who has graciously been brought into her life, shows the kind of person Katy is. Katy has had multiple different experiences during her life with animals, which shows her passion, patience, and courageousness with these pets. She has engaged with dogs with major anxiety disorders, dogs whom are sick and need to be cared for, dogs who had not been around many other dogs and learning the new social game, dogs who just want to run and act like puppies, and of course dogs who just want to be loved. I would recommend Katy to anyone and everyone I know. She loves my dog (Henry) like her own, and always makes these furry pets feel nothing but love and comfort. You will have zero worries about your furry friends while you are out and about, as they will be in great hands of Katy. Thank you, Hanna

I have known Katy W. for a long time and know her to be a reliable, intelligent and caring young woman. Katy has extensive knowledge of dogs and their needs. She is kind and gentle with all animals. Katy has taken care of our two golden retrievers many times and they are always very happy to see her. I would trust Katy to walk and care for my dogs at any time. Tess

It is with my great pleasure to recommend Katy as a highly responsible and loving dog caregiver. As my work schedule started to pick up it was essential for me to find a dog walker or caregiver for my only child/loving fur baby Harley. I was hesitant at first using this site to let a stranger I didn't even know be fully responsible for my fur child while away for the day or traveling for work BUT I hit the golden ticket with Katy. Realizing Katy was a full time teacher during the school year it made complete sense that her care for others, kids, people, and pets, was of great importance to her. To most, our dogs are our kids and we want the absolute best for them, and it is with my full sincerity that with Katy you are getting the BEST!
