No breed discrimination here xoxo I love all dogs no matter what age, size, background, or breed <3 All of them deserve the best care possible!

A typical day

I am an avid dog lover & would take mine everywhere if I could. We like to go on hikes, camping, breweries, road trips, & long walks on the beach. :) We also enjoy some solid snuggle time at the homestead. <3

Pet care experience

BOARDING When available - please check my calendar. I have two unfenced acres at my home as well as extra crates & dog bowls if needed. Since birth, I have grown up in a household full of dogs. My parents are rough collie breeders and my mother is a certified trainer. I have learned a lot through her as well as my hands on experience working for years at dog kennels, shelters, rescue organizations, as well as a vet clinic that I interned at. Our fur babies at home include a 7 year old female chocolate lab as well as a 6 year old female rescue hound/lab/pit mix, as well as a 10 year old short hair rescue kitty. I also have two lizards that I have rescued (leopard gecko & bearded dragon), so I am also experienced in boarding & caring for lizards. *Fully Vaccinated Household*

Catharine was amazing! She worked with us for a last minute booking and was very welcoming to our two doggos. We received photo/video updates that cheered us up while we were away. Our girls came back to us happy and exhausted :) we will be keeping her in mind for our next trip up to Portland. Thanks again, Catharine!

Catherine was great with my pup, she kept me informed and updated regularly and was very accommodating. It put me at ease knowing my dog was somewhere where you could tell she was being treated like part of the family 10/10

After a 2 year hiatus due to the pandamic, we've come back to Catharine, and Gracie couldn't be happier for her weekly walks!

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.
