I have loved and been with dogs all my life. Currently, I'm the proud mother of 2 incredible Sammies, who require copious amounts of exercise and socialisation, so your dog would always have play companions. I'm also proponent of positive-reinforcement training, where patience is key.

Our spaniel was really well looked after and came back a happy tired boy. Catarina stayed in contact and sent lots of lovely photos and videos. Would recommend them to everyone. Will definitely use them again!

I was so nervous leaving cooper as he is only 7 months and I've never left him with anyone before. I got loads of pics vids & reassured that he was okay. Cooper got loads of walks, long walks not short ones, which I know he enjoyed. To help him settle she allowed him upstairs on his bed to sleep instead of downstairs which he isn't used to sleeping downstairs alone. Would definitely use Catrina again as cooper had so much attention & love 💕 he came home busted & had a big nap. Thank you so much for having my boy & treating him like your own 💙❤️💜

Catarina is absolutely amazing and I really cannot recommend her enough!! I have never had a babysitter for Lily before so I was nervous about trusting her with someone but I really had nothing to worry about. Catarina is so patient and understanding as Lily can be timid and does have separation anxiety at times. Catarina, Phil, Snow and El have made her feel so welcome and settled. She now even runs to their front door as she is excited to see them all. That’s a massive achievement and is down to the care, love and understanding that Catarina has. I feel so lucky to have found this wonderful family 🐾♥️

Schedule

Most of my week revolves around caring for dogs. All my time is dedicated to them, so they will have my complete and undivided attention.

Where your pet will stay

Home characteristics

Lives in a house
Has a fenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has 2 dogs
No children present
Dogs not allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 0-2 hours

Safety, trust & environment

Time will be spent at a park chiefly frequented by other people with dogs. It is a safe space with plenty of room to roam and play while still being enclosed, with no need to worry about cars.

Pets

A typical day

We go on walks, I teach them new tricks and we play different games depending on the dogs preferences (fetch, swimming, running, digging and playful rassling for those who like it).

Cats
0 to 7 kg
7 to 18 kg
18 to 45 kg
over 45 kg
Catarina can host up to 3 pets per night
I would need to know of any allergies, their level of recall, how social they are both with people and dogs, their habits in terms of scavenging/hunting and if they are intact (I will accept them, but I need to know about it).
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
