“Catalina was absolutely amazing in taking care of my dog, Banyan! From the start, she showed incredible expertise and genuine care, making sure Banyan was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. She provided regular updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her communication is top-notch—she’s always responsive and keeps you in the loop. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable pet caregiver. Banyan adored her, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life and have trained a few dogs. I love animals and will spoil your pets with cuddles and homemade, healthy treats while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’ll be home all day most days to care for your fur babies. My schedule is very flexible. I have a fenced in yard, and a sweet miniature golden doodle to keep your dog company. I can crate your dog if you’d like as well.
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of every farm animal from horses to chickens. My sister said I was like the Pied Piper. Animals would just follow me around. I have trained therapy dogs and one service dog. I love all animals and they love me. I often say I'd rather spend time with dogs than people. (I like people, too) I was a certified teacher for 38 years and just recently retired. Oh, kids like me, too. I'm currently retired and spend a great deal of my time at home. I teach music lessons one afternoon a week but other than that your dog will have lots of attention. I have a 1/4 acre fenced in yard with an electronic gate that is always locked and can only be opened with a remote gate opener. I live in a very shaded area of the historic part of a quiet neighborhood. . I have a neutered husky that loves dogs from 4 to 150 pounds.
“Brio had a wonderful time, she enjoyed having one-on-one attention and cuddles all day with Carol while Mum & Dad did ‘adult human’ things. We would highly recommend Carol to take care of anyones fur baby.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. With a range of dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, geckos, chinchillas, and fish. I take pride in knowing animal behaviors and being able to accommodate to all needs from puppies to seniors. I work full time but can work from home when needed. My husband is a stay at home dad. So someone is always at the house or near by. We have a large spacious home, with plenty of space to explore and find comfort. Our backyard is fenced in with a lock on the gate. Our neighborhood has sidewalks and paths and is residential so only local homeowners travel in and out the area. Very quiet and clean neighborhood.
About: I have had dogs of my own and taken care of other dogs for over 30 years. My last fur baby recently passed away at 16 years old, she was a Cockapoo. I have excellent firsthand experience taking care of senior dogs. I am retired, so you will have peace of mind knowing your pet will not be alone while they stay with me. I can provide daily walks (long or short), plenty of cuddles, and one-on-one attention - most of all, plenty of extra love. My home is sure to be a relaxing and calm environment for your pet. I am retired, so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available both day or night. I am also available for overnight care as well. Please do not hesitate to ask, I am happy to accommodate. I no longer have any pets of my own. Your dog will be treated like it’s a part of my family! Your dog will have free roam of my home and is always welcomed on the couch. I have a fenced in backyard and I am close to a dog park too.
About: I love dogs better than people! I have owned and cared for dogs of all ages for many years. Experience with seniors needing extra care.

I will come to your house to walk and/or play with your pups while you are at work or gone for a long day out.
About: I have experience with dogs,cats reptiles and birds. I have also been known to house the occasional pig,ferret and once a raccoon. But honestly probably wouldn't do a raccoon again.
