Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Catherine and I have been pet-sitting for over 10 years now. I started out watching my cousin's cats when they went on vacation and it just grew from there! My family has had dogs since I was little and I truly feel that it's not a home unless there's a dog around, which is why I LOVE being a pet-sitter. I have cared for a variety of pets, from kittens to puppies to senior dogs and am comfortable administering medications if need be. I moved back to PA from Charlotte, NC a year and a half ago and have taken a little break from Rover while I settled in and opened a new family business. I manage a local coffee shop full-time -- my family opened it a little over a year ago, so I typically work 8am-5pm. I'm home most evenings, usually working on something around the house or binge-watching Netflix and would love to have a pup around to keep me company! When I was sitting in Charlotte, I had many regulars who I grew to love as my own pups and loved being able to make those connections with both the pups and the owners. I know how important it is to be able to entrust the care of your pet to someone trustworthy and reliable, and I enjoy being able to be that person for people. I'm a big fan of dog parks and love taking pups there to play. I also enjoy getting out for walks and going hiking when I can! I love to cuddle and play with pups and would love to provide your dog a loving, safe environment while you are away because I know that's what I would want for my own pups.
Reviews
Catherine took great care of my dog, he seemed right at home with her. Sent me photos, played with him and snuggled. She even had his things all ready to go when I picked him up, crate and everything. Will definitely be booking with Catherine again!
CATHERINE IS AWSOME! My girl is an 18yo hound/lab mix on medications and wants attention and to sleep. She’s a blessing to me and is my “furry child”! Catherine stayed in contact, sent a pic, and presented my girl back to me happy and content! I wanted to right a negative review so her schedule can stay open for me! But....I can’t fib on such a great furry-sitter❤️
Catherine was great and Mila loved her! When we picked her up she kept running between us and Catherine giving kisses :) Catherine sent texts and pictures throughout and took Mila out of the dog park to make sure she got lots of social play. We will definitely book again and highly recommend.
Catherine was awesome!!! She was super responsive both before and during my dachshund Cecil’s stay. I felt very comfortable leaving Cecil with her after a pre-stay meet and greet. She was super flexible with Cecil’s needs and made him feel comfortable (which was quite evident by pictures she shared). I felt at ease while on vacation as I received updates. Thank you so much Catherine!!

Information Catherine H. would like to know about your pet
Is your pup house-trained and do they need to be crated during the day while I am at work or are they ok to roam the lower level of my house without getting in to too much?
A typical day
I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for going on walks, and Cousler Park is also within five minutes of my house and I enjoy going there when I get the chance. My sister likes taking her dog to the John Rudy dog park, so if you're ok with dog parks, I can head out that way as well.
