I have recently taken early retirement from a corporate "9 to 5" job. I like to keep busy and have a lot of time now for my volunteer work and for animal care through Rover.

About Catharine S.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fully fenced backyard that my pets and visiting pets would play in safely. I do not let my dogs or any others in my care outside of the yard in an off leash situation. When going outside of my home, your pets and mine will be managed on leash for their safety. Also, being a fur mom myself, we do not leave anything on counters or around the home that dogs or cats could get into for their own safety. In a home visit situation, I will treat your fur baby and your home with the utmost care and respect as if it were my own home.

Information Catharine S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know about your pets' care, diet, medications, exercise, and what type of play is enjoyed. I will ask about the dogs leash manners, any behavioural concerns, and if there are any unique traits that I should know about.
A typical day
When I watch your pets we will spend a lot of time outdoors, walking or playing in our fenced yard. I will take my direction from you on what your pet likes. They will also receive lots of affection and pets during their time spent with me. With cats, I will play with those who enjoy it and give affection to them as tolerated by each cat.

Experienced animal caregiver
Pet care experience
I am a responsible, reliable, and experienced animal lover. I have adopted 14 total dogs and cats of my own over the years. I have also been a volunteer through the Humane Society, Boxer Rescue Ontario (BRO), and the SPCA over the years. I am currently an approved foster mom for BRO and have had 18 foster dogs in our home over the past few years. I have learned a ton from that experience and my other volunteer work and have applied it with my own fur babies and others that I have looked after for family and friends. I would treat your pet as my own for the duration of their stay and/or the time I spend caring for them.
Cat care experience
Catharine also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
As always, she was awesome caring for my pup!
We are so happy to have found Catharine. Our dog, Marco, had the best time at her house. The updates and photos during his stay provided us with peace of mind knowing he was being loved on while we were away.
Catharine is a lovely, animal experienced caregiver. And I look forward to her meeting my dog and two cats. I know my Danny black lab is going to love her.
Catharine is great with our pets. They feel at home and are well looked after.
