Safety, trust & environment

When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow the routine they already know so they feel comfortable and secure. I keep their feeding, walking, and play schedules consistent and make sure they get plenty of attention and reassurance while you are away. I send updates and photos so you always know how they are doing. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep things tidy, follow any house rules you leave for me, and make sure your pet feels calm, safe, and cared for in their familiar space.

Catcher was a wonderful caretaker for our sweet girl Penny. He really took good care of both our high maintenance girl and our home. Thanks Catcher!

We had such a great experience with Catcher this summer. He took wonderful care of our dog Miles and our cat Nina and treated them with so much love and care. Miles can be a little anxious when we travel, and he needs daily meds, so we’re always nervous about leaving him. Catcher handled his medication perfectly and kept everything on schedule, which gave us so much peace of mind. Nina, who is usually pretty picky about people, warmed up right away and clearly felt comfortable with him. A++

I hired Catcher to dog-sit my mini Aussiedoodle, Milo, after meeting him at his job at Noah’s Ark in Winnetka, and he was incredible from the moment we connected. He has such a natural, easy way with animals, and Milo LOVED HIM. Catcher kept me updated with photos and messages, which made me feel completely comfortable while my family and I were on vacation. He followed Milo’s routine perfectly and even added extra playtime and long walks to keep him happy and calm. We came home to a relaxed, content pup and a spotless house. I can’t recommend Catcher enough. He’s responsible, kind, and truly cares about the pets he watches. I will definitely hire him again.

Schedule

Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already keep a structured schedule as a college sophomore at Lewis University. When I am home on breaks, from December 13 to January 5, I have a lot of flexibility and I enjoy planning my day around caring for animals. I work at Duck Duck Goat in Chicago during school breaks, so I am used to being responsible, on time, and attentive to details. When I am home, I genuinely enjoy walking, feeding, and spending time with pets, and it fits naturally into my day.
