Pet care experience

Experienced & Loving Dog Mom

I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently care for my two dogs daily. I’m very familiar with structured routines, I’m used to long walks — sometimes up to two hours — including playtime and rest breaks as needed, always adapting to the dog’s energy level. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, always adapting to their specific needs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog as if they were my own, prioritizing safety and lots of affection.

Caterina took great care of our dog over a two week stat. We received lots of photos and updates which kept us at ease while we were traveling. At the same time, our dog got plenty of outdoor exercise and got along great with Caterina’s dogs. We highly recommend her as a dog sitter.

Caterina has been awesome and so sweet with my dog! My dog can be shy at first but he warmed up to her very quickly. Caterina is always on time, has great communication and will be rebooking :)

Caterina was fantastic at taking care of our lovely pup. She sent photo updates and it was adorable to see Stout having so much fun with her own dogs. She even accommodated my dog sitting request at the last minute as I had a travel emergency come up, which was very much appreciated. I was glad my dog got some good exercise and was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Caterina for any pet service needs and would definitely be using her again in the future as needed. Thank you again!

Doggy Day Care • juin 06, 2026

Caterina did an amazing Job. First time Rover user and she went above and beyond to make sure not only I felt comfortable, but also my GS. Lots of walks and activity through out the day. Love that they took my girl to the beach. Would highly recommend Caterina for any and all dog sitting needs. Thank you so much for making this a very special experience. - 3 days Doggy Day Car 9am-5pm

Caterina was a great sitter and provided amazing updates on our dog Truffle while we were away. I had no doubt that she was in good hands and had the best weekend! I couldn’t recommend this sitter more.

Schedule

I currently work online and part-time, so I would have plenty of time to care for your dog, giving him attention, playtime, and exercise. At home, we usually go to bed early because we have a dog who wakes up very early and starts his day with his routine of going out to relieve himself.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two friendly dogs who could keep your dog company. I'm also very close to the bay where I usually go with my dogs. I typically take a long walk in the mornings to Fiesta or around the area, depending on how my day is going. And I have several spaces in the house where your dog can rest peacefully after walks.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me is calm, active, and full of attention for the pets. We usually start the morning with a nice walk to get some fresh air and explore the neighborhood. During the day I like to include playtime, short training moments, and relaxing breaks so the dogs feel comfortable and happy. If the dog enjoys longer outings, we can go for extended walks where we stop to rest under a tree, observe the surroundings, and continue exploring. I also love playing games like fetch, gentle tug, or mental stimulation activities depending on the dog’s personality. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and entertained while they are in my care, keeping a balance between exercise, fun, and relaxation.

Before caring for a pet, I like to know a few important things to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. It’s helpful to understand their routine, energy level, and personality. I also like to know if they have any allergies, medical needs, or specific feeding schedules. Please let me know how they behave around other dogs and people, if they have any fears or triggers, and what activities they enjoy most. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure your pet has a happy, safe, and relaxing experience while in my care.
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.
