About: Hey, use my code for $20 off! https://www.rover.com/sit/mahdoa39338 About me? I'm a WFH freelancer, and can choose my own hours. This leaves me wide open to help you and your pets on a call/text! Why me? I have loved, house-trained, and cared for nearly 25 cats and dogs over 45lbs. Several of my pets in my household needed end of life care or special medical treatment, too, which means I had extra love to give and ease their comfort. I have petsit for friends, family, and my extended network for the past 10yrs, and supported many of them through their special and unique needs and care. So, here I am, making it an official hobby. Because I am a part-time WFH freelancer, I have the flexibility to be more available and attentive for you and your pets! I'm always available, and LOVE giving PAWgress reports - pupdates and daily* mews! Reports are always more than just "daily" - pet content is a vital necessity ❤️ In any care with any pet, I listen to their expressions and behaviors for both their and my security. In your home, I will follow your pet's natural safe spaces to make sure that both of us have time and space to know each other better, which doesn't disrupt their normal routine, and keeps us both comfortable and safe. It is important for me to always listen to your pet's and your needs and concerns, more than just for safety, but also fun! This means I will need information on your pet and your rules, expectations, and specific treatment and care.
“Katelyn was great with our pups. When she stopped by she stayed with them for an hour and took a bunch of photos for us.
