Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet will be my family!
🐾 Hello! I’m Catherine — a lifelong animal lover, experienced sitter, and proud 5-star Rover caregiver with over 7 years of experience and over 50 glowing reviews, please make sure to review them 😊. Since joining Rover in 2018, I’ve had the joy of caring for countless dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or has special needs, I treat every furry friend as part of my own family — with love, patience, and lots of cuddles. ❤️ I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. My clients often tell me they feel completely at ease knowing their pets are in responsible, loving hands — that’s my biggest reward! I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, following owners’ instructions carefully when it comes to feeding, routines, medications, or behavior preferences. My goal is always to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy — just as you would. Although my beloved pug recently crossed the rainbow bridge 🌈, she continues to inspire the way I care for every pet — with compassion and devotion. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cozy snuggles, I make sure every pet gets personalized care and affection. You can count on me to communicate clearly, send updates, and make your time away as stress-free as possible. Your pets will truly be treated like family. 💕

Ratings and reviews
I have been using Cathe for years now and she always takes great care of my dog, Bear. She sends me pictures, which I really appreciate and he always loves going to see her! I would highly recommend her!
I was very pleased with Cathe's kindness and care for my little kitten. She sent me photos and updates every day, and I highly recommend her if anyone needs pet care services. Quedé muy satisfecha con la amabilidad y el cariño que Cathe le brindó a mi gatita. Me enviaba fotos y actualizaciones a diario, y la recomiendo ampliamente a cualquiera que necesite servicios de cuidado de mascotas.
We are so grateful for the wonderful care our cat received while we were in the middle of moving. Leaving a pet during such a hectic time can be stressful, but knowing our cat was in such kind and attentive hands made all the difference. From the start, it was clear how thoughtful and experienced Cathe is with animals. Our cat was comfortable, well cared for, and clearly given plenty of attention and affection during his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind to know he was safe and happy while we handled the chaos of our move. We truly appreciate the warmth, reliability, and care she showed. It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet, but she made the whole experience feel easy and reassuring. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and dependable cat sitter.
Very responsive and great sitter. Thanks for your help!
Lotus enjoyed the stay and playing with other dogs!
Cathe was great at keeping in touch and sending pictures.

Schedule
On weekdays I have a day job as a Property Manager, but I have plenty of time in the morning for my furry guests. I feed them when I wake up and take dogs for a walk in the morning and we have a bit of playtime as well. Later in the afternoon when I arrive home I feed them and take them for another walk, and I walk them again before going to sleep. This schedule works great for pets who are potty trained and comfortable being home alone for some time. I'm at home pretty much all day on weekends and holidays. My cats are very friendly and provide great company for our furry visitors.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I only care for pets in my own home, not at clients' homes. My space is cozy and pet‑safe with comfortable beds and lots of toys to keep them entertained. I prioritize cleanliness and safety by keeping doors locked and supervising all outdoor time. I follow each pet's routines and adapt to any special needs or behaviors so they feel comfortable and secure.
Pets
A typical day
Your pet’s day will start with breakfast and a walk. Throughout the day we enjoy playtime, sometimes long walks by the beach and naps on comfy beds. I incorporate fresh air, interactive toys, and evening strolls. At night pets are welcome to sleep and cuddle with me so they feel more at home. I send photo updates to keep you in the loop.
