We cannot say enough amazing things about Katya! We have a rescue dog who was previously abused and is extremely anxious — especially around new people. As you can imagine, we were just as anxious leaving her for the first time. Katya went above and beyond to make all of us feel comfortable. She sent multiple updates and pictures every single day, which really eased our minds. It was clear from the photos that our girl felt safe and cared for. She took her on lots of walks, was patient with her anxiety, and made sure she received her medication exactly as instructed. That level of attentiveness meant everything to us. If you have a nervous or special-needs pup, Katya is someone you can absolutely trust. We are so grateful to have found her and will 100% be booking with her again!

Katya was amazing! She provided reports and multiple pictures several times a day. Cooper can be a little anxious, but he quickly fell in love with her. I would highly recommend Katya to anyone in need of a dog sitter. We will definitely book her again in the future! Thank you Katya!

We cannot say enough great things about Katya - she is the best dog sitter we have ever had. She gives regular updates daily. She keeps them stimulated with tricks and play. She is very affectionate and loving with them both. She was very understanding and flexible when we had to adjust our pickup time. And most of all, when our dog ended up getting sick while we were away, she took him to urgent care and stayed past midnight waiting for his diagnosis and treatment plan. Then, she followed through and gave him the proper medication and bland diet prescribed until we were able to pick him up. Our pups have really gotten close to both her and her son - they are both so responsible, warm and caring. We trust her fully with our fur babies and highly recommend her to everyone!

Thank you Katya for taking care of Miko. He felt very comfortable from the first day he met you. We knew we had no worries leaving him with you. We loved all the updates. And we will definitely look forward to working with you again.

A typical day

I love to go on walks around the neighborhood, and at least get two longs walks in a day. My dog will try to pretend every time she hasn’t been walked, just to squeeze more in.

Please let me know what your dog’s typical day is like. What do they enjoy most? Do they like tummy rubs or walks? Do they like to play with a toy or learn a new trick?
