Yoga Studio Owner & kitty mom
Pet care experience
I’ve spent 20 years working an executive personal assistant to high profile people. Now, I own 2 yoga studios - 1 virtual and 1 at Baker Park in Naples, FL. I mostly work from home and both need and love to play with animals and get out of the house to destress and just play. I’m a certified yoga teacher and a former full time nanny, so house sitting has also been a full-time part of my life. Personally, I’ve also owned 4 cats and 6 dogs through my life. All rescues ranging from junk yard cats to Great Danes. I love animals as much as I love my step kids and here both are treated like immediate family. Would love to spend more time loving on more furry friends.
Reviews
My puppy Wrigley had so much fun spending the day with Elyssa (Catherine)! She took great care of Wrigley and she didn’t want to leave.
Catherine was very responsive for a same day request. Pete was happy and satisfied with his walk. I would recommend her and will use her again
I highly recommend Catherine. She was hired to take care of the cat once in a while, but quickly became invaluable because of her willingness and ability to be there every time we needed her. She loves animals and is a responsible, respectful ray of light. Your pets will be in excellent hands.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a condo within a gated community with lots of active people and pets. There are no major roads accessible and lots of grass to play in. I also treat my clients’ homes as meticulously as my own. In fact, one of my full-time Executive Assistant positions stemmed from a one-time emergency pet-sitting booking!

Information Catherine B. would like to know about your pet
Special diet, any medications, how they interact with other animals/people, what scares them and what comforts them… the usual stuff you’d want someone to know before caring for your pet.
A typical day
I love that dogs take me for walks. It gets me out of my head, into nature and on an adventure within new and existing places in my hometown. I also appreciate a good snuggle and am not afraid of using a lint roller.
