Katie’s Bio
Hello! My name is Katie, I love being a sitter for children, animal children & an adult care companion. I'm a member of what I've coined as "the grandma squad". Taking care of her includes giving her medications, snacks, meals, drinks, taking her places; including doctors office, voting, meals, etc. Reading to her & helping her understand things. She also requires gentle massage on her neck & back & I put pain creams on her to help with the pain. My family tells me I'm really good with her & very patient.

Reviews
I found Katie through a local sitter site when looking for weekend care for my then one year old son after a prior sitter didn’t work out. I interviewed several candidates looking for someone special, as my little guy has a ton of energy and personality. Katie was the perfect fit for my son, and was great at being communicative throughout the day by sending photos and little updates and needed literally zero oversight. She planned activities and outings and made sure he had lots of fun. You can tell how much she genuinely enjoys spending time with little ones. If I hadn’t relocated she’d absolutely still be my first choice!
