Pet care experience
12 years of pet care loving :)
Hi there! I'm a dedicated pet sitter with over 12 years of experience caring for a variety of pets, from cats and dogs to birds. My pet sitting journey has included both short-term and extended stays, ensuring pets receive the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away. Recent Experience: Short term care: Cat sitting for 2 professors for 3 semesters in 2023 , included daily drop in visits twice a week. Extended care: My latest adventure took me to Providence, RI, where I looked after two adorable doodles, one of whom had special needs and required daily medication. Initially planned for a month, this gig extended to three months due to my host's changing travel plans. With my car, I was able to take these furry friends on exciting day trips, hikes, and even beach visits, adding an extra layer of fun to their routine. Services Offered: Dog Walking: I can walk your dogs within a 4-mile radius. Drop-In Visits: I'll check in on your pets to ensure they're happy and well-cared for. Please note: At this time, I am not offering overnight stays or boarding services. Why Choose Me? Reliable Transportation: With my own car, I'm flexible and can easily reach you. Special Needs Experience: Confident in administering medication and catering to special needs pets. Clear Communication: I prioritize open and clear communication to ensure a smooth pet sitting experience. I'm happy to arrange a video call or meet in person to discuss your pet's needs and your expectations. Let's connect and make sure your pets are in safe and loving hands while you're away!

Ratings and reviews
Catherine made sure my dog was well taken care of and maintained his daily routine while I was away, and I appreciated how responsive she was whenever I checked in on them. I’d recommend and book Catherine’s service again!
Catherine saved us, seriously. We were supposed to be gone for 3 days and ended up being away for almost a week because our flights got canceled during the blizzard. She rolled with it like it was nothing and we honestly don't know what we would've done without her. We knew she was the right fit from the very first meet and greet. She showed up with a pen and notebook, asking all the right questions and taking detailed notes about our dogs' routines. That level of preparation really stood out to us and gave us so much confidence going in. Throughout the stay, she sent us updates and photos, kept a close eye on Dama when she was having some tummy issues, and even learned how to cook the dogs' ground beef and mix in their probiotics. During the worst of the storm she made sure they were taken care of, adjusting walks, keeping them comfortable, all of it. On top of all that, she left the house in tip top shape. She ran the dishwasher, took the trash out, and everything was clean and organized when we got back. We really didn't expect that and it meant a lot after such a long trip. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. Oscar and Dama warmed up to her quickly and knowing they were in good hands made being stuck far from home way less stressful. Catherine, thank you for everything. You went above and beyond and we are so so grateful. We'll absolutely be booking you again! 🐾
It was great working with Cat again. She was wonderful in accommodating us on an incredibly last minute request and provided great communication and pictures while we were out of the country! We would love to work with her again in the future!
Cathy is the best. This is the second time she has taken care of my dog. She communicates frequently and responds quickly. She has stayed over at my house and is completely trustworthy. She goes above and beyond. Will definitely continue to use her services. Thanks, Cathy!
Cathy was amazing! Will definitely be using her again.
2nd time booking with Cat and it was again a great experience. She is very flexible and communicative. She provides great updates and provides excellent care for our animals! Will be booking with her again in the future.
