Pet care experience
I have always had a love affair with animals. I have horses, dogs, cats and kids and everything in between! I am presently providing service in your home (not overnight) but will ultimately also include boarding in my home, I will make several trips to your home on a daily basis to make sure your fur babies are happy! I can provide references from local veterinarians, I have current pet cpr certification. I also provide equine lay up services as well as farm calls for daily care when you are on vacation. Over 25 years of horse ownership and a lifetime of pet ownership! Let's keep your pets home where they are comfortable and let me come to them! Prices are for a distance of 5 miles from my home, travel past that area is adjusted.
Reviews
Catherine was very attentive to both my and Odin's needs during our weekend apart. She made sure to send pictures along with regular updates, and went above and beyond in documenting and cleaning up after he got a bit destructive when he went stir-crazy. Next time I'll have to consider more walks or a full house-sitting arrangement, but would without a doubt be happy to bring her back for it!
Catherine is a gentle, compassionate soul. When she came for the "meet & greet," her approach to my shy dog was perfect: she spoke very gently to him, made only brief eye contact, and gave him plenty of time to become accustomed to her presence while we talked. She's also very professional, responding promptly to booking requests, and arriving early for appointments. In the evening when I get home from work, my dog is glad to see me, without the over-eagerness that comes from separation anxiety. Thank you, Catherine for your excellent care of Scouty! :)
I always love getting pictures from Catherine during her visits! The pups always look so happy she's there!
Reliable and my dog loves her.

Information Catherine D. would like to know about your pet
I have always had larger breed dogs, from Collies, Irish Setters, Golden's, German Shepherds and Labs. Now our children have moved in to their own homes we are enjoying the company of smaller dogs that like to snuggle! If your pet has a special request then let me know! If he/she has special attention needs I would like to know before hand.
A typical day
I like to have an in home meet and greet prior to accepting and being accepted in to your home, this is at no charge. I feel it is important that your furry family members feel as comfortable with me in their space as I do coming in to provide them with attention.
