Experienced & Caring Pet Care
*See rates at the end* 🐾 About Me I’m a wildlife biologist and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for animals of all ages, personalities, and species. 🐰 At Home I have a 4-year-old free-roam, litter-trained bunny, so I’m very comfortable with routines, gentle handling, and attentive daily care. 🐱🐶 Pet-Sitting Experience • Cared for senior cats while owners traveled, following detailed feeding/medication instructions and providing regular updates • Rescued cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies while traveling in Southeast Asia — providing food, baths, shelter, and vet visits 🐢🦜 Exotics Welcome • Volunteered at the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre (animal husbandry) • Experience caring for reptiles and parrots, including helping rehabilitate a parrot from an abusive situation 💛 My Care Style Calm, reliable, and detail-oriented. I treat every animal like my own and love sending photo and message updates so you can travel worry-free.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your space and your animal with the utmost respect. I follow your routines and house rules closely, keep doors and gates secure, double-check leashes and enclosures, and ensure a calm, low-stress environment. I’m attentive to behavior changes, proactive about safety, and experienced with everything from seniors to exotics. Your home is left as I found it, and you’ll receive regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident your pet — and your space — are in safe, caring hands 🐾💛
Ratings and reviews
Catherine was incredible! She housesat my puggo for 10 days and did a fantastic job. I got updates/photos each day on top of clarification to ensure the best care while I was away from home. She is responsible, has great attention to detail, and truly cares about your pet. I could not recommend her more!!
She spent so much time with both my dogs while dog sitting that I think they are upset she left! Both my dogs loved her immediately and she clearly likes animals herself. I plan on having her sit again any time I need it!
Catherine is a trustworthy pet-sitter who cares for my animals each year when I go on vacation! She sends daily updates and I always come back to happy and healthy pets. I can’t recommend her services enough!!!
Catherine is an exprienced pet owner having taken excellent care of a demanding bun for many years. She understands the particularity of pets and gets that special requirements may be necessary to ensure your pet gets the most out of the service. Overall, Catherine is good natured, responsible and loves animals.
Catherine has a kind and caring disposition that shines when she’s interacting with animals. She has taken care of our beloved dog, rabbit and bird while we’ve been on vacation. It was so comforting to know that they were in good hands and could stay in their own environment.

Schedule
Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule and can be home throughout the day. This allows me to plan my time around your pet’s needs — whether that’s extra walks, playtime, medication, or quiet companionship — and provide consistent, attentive care with plenty of one-on-one time 🐾💛
