About Katie

Experience: 2 yrs

With two pets of my own, providing dedicated, compassionate care for your animal companions is my primary focus. I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their comfort and happiness while reinforcing positive behaviors. My background includes specialized experience with young, senior, and special needs pets. I maintain a secure environment, strictly adhere to dietary schedules, and manage high-energy breeds through active play. I remain calm during emergencies, keeping your contact information and vet details readily available to ensure immediate communication. I truly enjoy witnessing unique personalities emerge, especially when helping a shy pet gain confidence. Whether providing boarding, transportation, or administering medication, I approach every task with empathy and responsibility. I am eager to offer your pets the same warmth and attentive care that I would provide for my own beloved companions. I am comfortable administering meds.

I have four kitties which Katie looked after while I was vacation. Their food area and litter boxes were immaculate when I arrived back. I have a shy kitty and Katie was so good with him, she often sent me pictures of my cats while I was away (which was very much appreciated) and she even sent one of my shy cat getting cuddles. I have a kitten and Katie made sure to play with her with the fish toy I left (she sent me a video of play time). She made me feel comfortable and confident that my kitties were well looked after. When I returned home all of my kitties seemed relaxed and happy
