Magic!

I have always said that when I retire from teaching I would be a Disney Travel Agent. Love the Mouse, LLC has made this dream come true long before retirement!

I come from a family that loves Disney! My parents honeymooned to Walt Disney World in 1973 when it was just Magic Kingdom and there were only two monorail resorts. They took me to WDW for the first time when I was three years old and continually took us there on family vacations growing up. Our most recent family trip was to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary!

Not only do I love all things Disney and travel there any opportunity I get, but for as long as I can remember, friends and family have always come to me when planning their Disney vacations. My love of planning combined with being a graduate of Disney’s College of Knowledge makes me the ideal person to help plan your magical vacation.

My FREE concierge level services will take the stress out of planning, and I will help you customize your trip to fit your family’s needs. I can’t wait to help you and your family make magical memories!

Awesome experience at the Food and Wine Festival

Booking our trip to Walt Disney World for the Food and Wine Festival was so easy and painless. Katie made sure all of our accommodations were perfect. Our savannah view at Animal Kingdom Lodge was amazing, and all of food and wine recommendations Katie made at Epcot made the experience all the more enjoyable. I would recommend Katie for all of my future Disney travels!
