Cat’s my name, dogs are my game.
Pet care experience
I’ll love your pup as much as you do! Growing up, I was surrounded by every different kind of animal you can think of. I’ve worked with puppies professionally throughout my teens and into adulthood. Currently, I’m employed full-time with BARK (the dog company), because I love pups so much I decided to build my career around them! I’ve also trained and raised two sweet angels myself and am very familiar with crate-training, medicating, prescription diets, and positive reinforcement strategies. But truly the most important thing I can tell you is that all the love I have in the world goes to every dog I meet.
Reviews
Catharine has been my best friend for 7 years, and she is by far one of the most loving pet owners I have ever seen. She is extremely responsible and is very hands-on when it comes to her animals as well as others. If she were to watch my dogs I would feel 100% comfortable and confident that they are being well cared for.
Catharine is my go to pup sitter! I always feel so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her when I am away from home and she is truly the only sitter I trust. Catharine has even picked up last minute shifts for me when unexpected events come up. Not only is she so loving of my pup, she is so loving of all of the pups. Her own dogs have really given her the perfect experience to be a caring, loving and outstanding dog sitter.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I make sure playtime is supervised and safe! I also ensure trash is securely away/cat food is picked up off the ground to ensure they don’t get into anything funky.
Home
Information Catharine M. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know about their temperament and if there are any things that trigger them, as well as if they have aggression triggers/fears. Anything that will help me keep them happy as can be!
A typical day
We’ll go for long walks around my (safe and dog-friendly) neighborhood, snuggle up on the couch, have a lot of engaged playtime, and watch birds through the window (my pup’s favorite activity).

Availability
I work full-time for BARK (heard of BarkBox?), meaning that dogs are first priority. Doggy duty is built into our days and I’m always drowning in dog toys looking for a pup to share the love with! Walking your pup would really be my mid-workday treat. :)
