About
Hi there my name is Katie and I’ve been pet sitting/ housesitting for about 9 years now. I love what I do and I go above and beyond when it comes to taking care of your pet(s) and home. Not only do I provide top quality care and lots of cuddles and love for your pet(s) but I also bring in packages and mail, do walks, water any plants, take trash and recycle out to the curb, give plenty of updates with pictures if requested, and finally I will leave your home better, than when I first arrived. Summer is coming and the holidays will be here before you know it so I would reach out soon to make sure that your home base is covered while you are away! Two final things I’d like to point out: First, my starting rate is $85 per day but depending on how many animals you have, the price may potentially go up. Second, if we have exchanged confirmations and a client cancels with me a week or less: the client will be expected to pay for 50% of the service they booked me for. Thank you to everyone ☺️

Katie was lovely and our dogs were well taken care of and happy when we returned. I will absolutely be using Katie in the future.

We could not have been more excited to have found Katie! Never thought we would be able to find someone willing to take on our rescue dog. Our dog is very frightened and skittish and has never barked. Within a day, Katie and her son were able to get him to warm up and relax with them. We had a wonderful and relaxing family reunion away. The house looked great and Katie was so good about keeping us informed how our pup was doing.

Katie is so fantastic! She took great care of my dogs Lulu and Latte when I was out of town. She is extremely reliable and trustworthy. When I come home the dogs are happy and safe! And she did some housework for me, so I came home to a clean kitchen! She really is wonderful and I recommend her highly.

I had high hopes with such good reviews but after two emails requesting assistance I have not heard back from this business. They initially replied to my original inquiry but did not reply to my second message requesting specific assistance. Can’t really comment on their services but their customer service is a bit lacking.

She house and pet sat for us when we went out of town. She was wonderfully responsive and sent us check in pics of the pets. I am pretty sure the pets were more disappointed to see her go than excited I was back:). She was great and I would happily work with her again!
