I have a fenced in area for my own dog and have an indoor kitty as well! We make them our priority and treat them as our own little babies! Whenever I am house sitting other dogs, my cuties goes to their favorite vacation spot, their grandparents!

Information Catherine C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavior I can account for when taking care of them. I am comfortable giving meds and extra care to elderly and/or sick dogs.

A typical day

I love to play and have fun with your fur baby in whatever way they like! We can take longs walks, go to the dog park to meet new friends, or stay in and play with their favorite toys.

Cat really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were happy, healthy, and loved while I was away! They both needed medication 2x/day, as well as food, water and litter changes, and she took this head on, kept them comfortable and sent me lots of updates and photos. She even went to my pharmacy to get the meds refilled because I forgot to do so before the trip. She was also flexible with last minute date changes and left me some really sweet polaroids of my kitties. I would definitely recommend her for any pet needs you may have!
