I'm a student and most of my classes are online. This gives me the flexibility to be at home and available throughout the day. I want to use that time meaningfully by spending it with pets! Taking care of animals brings me so much joy and balance, especially during a busy school schedule. I believe it's a win-win for both me and the pets I care for.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm more of a gentle and patient pet carer. I like to take time to understand their routines and preferences to make them feel safe and comfortable around me. If I’m in the client’s home, I follow instructions carefully and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean litter or potty breaks.

Information Catherine C. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if your pet has any special needs! Like their daily routine; any medical needs or allergies; their favorite toys, treats, and games; and house rules!

A typical day

Every pet is different, and I love getting to know what they enjoy. I always like to ask pet parents about their pet’s favorite activities, toys, and routines so I can keep things familiar and fun for them. If your pet loves being active, we’ll get moving with playtime, walks, or games. If they’re more chill, I’m happy to hang out, give gentle pets, or even have quiet cuddle time.

Pet care experience

I’ve helped take care of my relatives' dogs while they were on vacation, and I used to volunteer at a local dog rescue shelter in my hometown, where I helped with dog walking, playtime, and cleaning. I also had a cat for 10 years, and during the last two years of his life, he developed chronic kidney failure. I gave him daily subcutaneous fluids and oral medication with care and patience. That experience taught me not only medical skills, but also the emotional side of caring for a pet who’s sick or aging.

Catherine was wonderful! She is sweet, always prompt in responding to messages, and took great care of our kitty Garbanzo. She was also accomodating with our weird key situation and we would definitely book her again!
