Mayalin was great. She was communicative and spent time with each of our cats. She went above and beyond taking care of them and our house. We trust her completely with our pets and home. We will definitely be booking her again!

About: Hello! I'm Kat, and I'm the happy human of a wonderful rescue dog, I know how hard it is to find someone you trust to take care of your precious pets. I also know how difficult and stressful it can be to transport your pets to a new location, which is why I am offering in-home services so your pets can feel safe and secure in their own environment. Due to the needs of my own elderly pet, I am able to offer walking, feeding, and letting in/out at this time. I have grown up with dogs, cats, and horses all my life and am very comfortable with any size pet. I am an animal advocate and am always concerned with the comfort, safety, and security of the pets for whom I am responsible. I’m a retired educator, so I have the maturity, time, and flexibility to ensure your pets are well cared for when you need help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a retired educator, so although I’m still working part-time in a school, I have flexibility every day, including weekends. I’m usually available early mornings or later evenings, depending on the situation. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I pay very close attention to details, such as ensuring doors or gates are closed/locked as needed, making sure clean water and food are readily available depending on the pet’s needs, being respectful of my client’s home in every way, being available to clients who want to check in, and ensuring the pets I am caring for receive the best possible treatment.

About: I've been a dog owner since I was 8 years old. We used to have two German shepherds a father & son. Vasco the father was a K9 imported from Netherlands very well trained and would obey all types of rules like sit, stay, come, quiet, etc. An interesting fact was that all his commands were in Dutch language. Yoko was our other dog we never really trained him like his father, but he was very well loved and taken care of he recently died back in 2022. I have an autistic brother who really loved both of them we haven't had a pet of our own since then, so we decided to start sitting dogs as I work most of the time from home and it helps my brother out greatly! We can assure you that your dog will be well taken care of with us! We can work with having pets inside or outside our property we just need owners to tell us where they keep them. Most of the time we have them inside as we do have plenty of space at our house. I work from home most of the time as well if I'm not home which is rare, I do have someone who will be available to take care of your pets all the time rest assured they'll be doing great! We do offer pick up and drop off before/after boarding please message me for more information! We care for your furry friends as you indicate us. What you tell us is what we will do for them. Let me know their schedule, potty breaks. how many times they eat per day.

About: I have grown with dogs, particularly yorkshire terriers, since I was 4. I understand and love dogs, and have cared for family pets! I have taken care of animals of various breeds, age, and sizes. Although most of my experience is with small dogs, owning 6 yorkshire terriers, I have taken care of family pets, such as Blue Heelers, Huskies, and Great Danes. I love any and all dogs with all my heart. It is always an honor caring for ones pets, and it is an honor I will gladly do forever. I am currently a full time college student, (trying) to work a part-time job. Since we are on break, I am free everyday, any time, until late August/early September. I will update this once I (hopefully) get a job :) and if there are any changes. I am always willing to make a meet & greet, to ensure your comfort! Being a dog owner, I understand if you'd like to see if I am a good fit first. I will also keep consistent communication to give you peace of mine while you are away. sending photos and updates on your pets.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for many different types of animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand each animal’s unique personality and needs. Over the years, I’ve also trained several of my own dogs, giving me experience with basic obedience, routines, and handling pets with different energy levels and temperaments. In addition, I’ve pet sat for friends and family many times, caring for pets as if they were my own by providing plenty of love, attention, exercise, and dependable care. I’m passionate about creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for every pet I meet. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule during the weekdays and full availability on weekends. I currently work full time during the week, but I’m able to leave on breaks and also accommodate early morning visits, walks, feedings, and check-ins. My weekends are completely open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so making sure pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for easily fits into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they are happy and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience handling animals with different personalities and energy levels, so I’m patient and adaptable with each pet. Whether it’s walks, potty breaks, play sessions, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also respect my client’s home by keeping everything clean, organized, and following all instructions carefully.

Catherine is definitely a five star pet sitter! She takes good notes, is meticulous, and very punctual. My two little dogs loved her! She also gave very good feedback and updates on how well my little guys were doing and sent lots of pictures. Overall I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in her care and enjoyed my trip without a worry. I would 100% recommend Catherine.
