Vegan/animal lover, Great handler

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm training horses, caring for various farm animals, as well as handling dogs and pets. I lived with two dog trainers for multiple years. I also am an animal rescuer and foster parent that has experience with all kinds of dogs and cats with every type of temperament at every life stage. I typically spend the week days at home in Des Plaines, and the extended weekends at my boyfriend’s in River West.

Catherine was an amazing sitter to my old guy Jack! She was so loving and very welcoming since the minute arrived to her home. She took him to the dog park which I know Jack loved and enjoyed. Thank you so much to making Jack’s stay with you so special❤️???

Catherine was absolutely amazing. I was going through a crisis & needed immediate help with my pups & she was so understanding and took amazing care of them! Always gave me updates & even tips to encourage better behavior in my dogs (mine are a little high maintenance). Thank you so much Catherine!!!

Catherine was amazing. The dogs seemed to love her and she showed nothing but care and affection for them as well. She also gave me daily updates about how my pets were doing and put my mind at ease during my trip. I wish I had something to complain about but she was legit; would book her again
