Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Catherine and I'm from East Tennessee, I recently moved to Beaverdam, Virginia after getting married a month or so ago :) I'm looking to not only meet people in the community and spend some time with cute pets, but also earn a little extra income. My schedule is quite flexible! A little bit about me: Growing up I played sports throughout college, learned a few instruments, and enjoyed art and exploring the outdoors. I grew up with 9 siblings and we are all animal lovers. We had at least two dogs and at least one cat pretty much my entire life. My dad is a dog whisperer and I got my love for pups from him. He knows the value of a good family dog and companion, especially for kids, and taught us how to treat them well. All of our pups have lived for long years and I know my life wouldn't have been the same without them. Regular trips to the park are common with our dogs and my family plays with them often! I've been on Rover for quite some time now in the various places I've lived. I was active on it during the summers while in school in Tennessee and while living in Indianapolis and Missouri. I can't wait to meet you and help out with your pets! :)
Reviews
Catherine was wonderful!! She watched Harvey (dog) over a long weekend while we were away. We got updates throughout the entire time; walks, snacks, and getting all of the love. She was easy to work with and made me feel so much more comfortable leaving for the weekend knowing Harv was in great hands!!
Catherine is absolutely wonderful. She has watched our dogs in our home several times. She is reliable, professional, and friendly. She treats our dogs and our home with respect and love. Our dogs are always happy to see her. I feel better leaving town knowing our dogs are in great hands. I can't recommend Catherine enough.
Catherine took wonderful care of my dog and home. She's very trustworthy and my dog fell in love with her. Even my neighbors took to her. I look forward to my next vacation knowing I have someone like Catherine to care for my Hamlin!
We have had Catherine watch our two dogs several times as we went out of town for extended periods of time. She did a wonderful job and our dogs love her. She cleaned up after them and followed our instructions to the tee. We could not recommend her strongly enough!
About Catherine C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
With loads of love and affection. As I mentioned previously my family had pets all throughout my life and my dad taught us how to take good care of them. During grad school, I had a cat named Chico that I loved dearly. If your pets have any special schedules or you have specific directions I will be careful to follow all of them and make sure your beloved pets are very well taken care of while you're away.
Information Catherine C. would like to know about your pet
It would just be helpful to know the basics: eating schedules, typical walk schedules, and any specific instructions, etc. I've taken care of a lot of pets, and some of them require more attention than others so I'll just need to know ahead of time!
A typical day
I love taking dogs to the park and running around with them. Also, I'm always up for a good cuddle with a pup if they're low energy. I usually find local parks nearby where I'm dog sitting or if the neighborhood is nice will take them around there. If your home has a yard that we can run around in I'll spend a lot of time out there with them!
Services
Catherine can watch in your home
Availability
The days I'm unavailable will be updated regularly on my calendar, otherwise I am very flexible and can do what is needed! For Spartan Races I am typically out of town on weekends for races but they are sporadic and usually only one to two races per month.
