I’m currently working part time so I can be very hands on with your pet. Take them on walks, play with them, and more. I provide dependable pet sitting and dog walking services tailored to each pet’s needs. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, administering basic medications if needed, and lots of attention and affection. I also provide photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and safe.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is a good size. It’s always clean. There’s lots of space for fur balls to run around. It’s a perfect spot. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow all feeding instructions, provide fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention and affection. I keep the environment clean, safe, and calm to reduce stress. I also monitor behavior, appetite, and energy levels to ensure pets stay happy and healthy, and I provide regular updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

Information Catalina G. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for a pet, I like to know their daily routine, feeding schedule, medical needs, allergies, and any medications. It’s also important to understand their temperament, triggers, energy level, and how they interact with new people or other animals. Knowing their favorite activities, comfort items, and any house rules helps me provide consistent, stress-free care that feels familiar and safe for them.

A typical day

I work part-time and remotely, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and spend quality time with the pets in my care. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I prioritize reliability and clear communication so pet parents feel confident and at ease while they’re away. A typical day includes morning potty breaks, feeding, and a walk to start the day off right. Throughout the day, I provide playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection and supervision. I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and happy. Evenings include another walk, dinner, and calm wind-down time before bed. For cats, I focus on maintaining their usual routine with feeding, fresh water, and litter box care. I spend time playing with toys, offering affection (on their terms!), and making sure they feel relaxed and secure in their space. I also monitor their behavior and appetite to ensure everything stays normal while you’re away.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is the level of genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort needs so they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m patient with young pets who are still learning routines and boundaries, and I’m equally gentle and attentive with senior pets who may need slower walks, medication support, or extra reassurance. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and I make sure pet parents feel informed through consistent updates and communication.

Catalina did a wonderful job watching Stella. She was very communicative and stayed on top of all her medications. I highly recommend working with her!
