Pet care experience

I love animals of all kinds!

Hi there! My name is Catherine and I am 27 years old. I have an associates of arts degree from St. Louis Community College and work part time as a home health care aide. In my free time I enjoy being with my family and my cat, Spyro. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve grown up with golden retrievers and cats since I was a little girl. I even had two mourning doves since I was in kindergarten until I was a sophomore in high school. I was always raised to respect every living creature big or small. I’ve dog sat and cat sat professionally since high school, and I just absolutely love it. I’ve dog sat puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I have experience with administering medicines, as well as behavioral work. On the other hand, I have my own transportation and can take your pups to a park or for a drive as well. Being a responsible and trustworthy pet sitter is always my top concern! If there is any special requests, I am more than happy to accommodate. Over all, I love animals and spending time with them! I can’t wait to meet your precious babies.

Dog Walking • Mar 25, 2026

We have Catherine on a three-times-a-week walking schedule. She has incredibly sweet manners with our elder dogs along with being attentive to their needs. She is always punctual along with being a good communicator if changes happen.

Catherine would be a perfect dog walker! She is 20 years old and a college student. Her family home has a golden retriever, a morning dove and hermit crabs so she is very accustomed to taking care of pets. She is friendly, dependable and prompt!

Schedule

I am a full time cat mom. I always make sure my cat is fed before work and after work. If I am boarding at my house I bring my cat to my mother’s home (just in case) to ensure the safety of my clients pets and my safety of my own pet. As for taking bookings, I like to make sure I am notified atleast 4 days before the date of the booking, just to make sure my schedule is clear.

Safety, trust & environment

When it is time for a bathroom break I always make sure to be present and always keep an eye on every pet at all times. Their safety is a top priority to me. If a client requests that their pet must be on a leash, I will fulfill that request. Supervision during feedings are also very important to me. When out on walks, I will make sure every pet is on a leash and that we are in a safe environment for the walk. I always check the weather forecast as well. It is important to always be alert of the surroundings including traffic, other pets that are around, and of course people. Safety and trust are always a priority, and I always want to keep the pets under my care in the safest environment. I am always open for special accommodations:). (If you would like a meeting before the actual booking I am always open for that)

Pets

A typical day

Of course, a nice long walk everyday is on the agenda. Being active is always a priority. If a client does not mind that we go to a park, I am okay with that. Mental and physical stimulation with toys in a fun and safe manner is a priority as well. I want to make sure my clients pets are safe and comfortable at all times. Rest is just as important as being active :).

Clients should please let me know if there is any behavioral issues beforehand. Also, any medications and the time of administration should be listed. If their pet has any special accommodations I am more than happy to oblige.
