Information Catherine D. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, but would just like to know if your pup(s) have any anxieties, reactivities, or medications that require special timing or administration. If your pup has behavioral challenges, I would like to have an in-depth conversation about triggers and what you do to help them through it.

A typical day

Pups can enjoy (if allowed) walks to the local park, hikes, trips to the local pet store, and even just car rides around the block! We’ll hangout on the sofa together and watch Netflix, maybe even some DOGTV!

Pet care experience

First, I want to thank you for viewing my page! It means a lot, there are a ton of sitters here on Rover. I've been working with dogs since I was a kid, started doing it professionally in 2013 through local dog daycares and boarding facilities. In the past 6 years, I’ve studied canine body language and behavior, pet CPR, various common dog illnesses, and many medications and how to administer them. I’ve also been able to study and learn the best practice for puppy care and allowing them to grow into happy, social, well-behaved doggos. I love just generally spending time with pups! I’m happy to take your pup on walks, runs, hikes, car rides, and field trips to the local pet store! I have 1 dog of my own, a friendly but shy girl. But, I have experience with dogs of all ranges of socialization. Over the last few years, I took a break from pet sitting to work with Indy’s homeless pets at IACS, where I was the Foster Coordinator, caring for all ages of dogs, cats, and other furry critters! I’ve also spent much of my free time photographing pets professionally, which is definitely one of my favorite things to do! Currently, I am working full-time at a local emergency vet, where I am gaining medical knowledge and enhancing my hands-on skills. tldr; I'm here for you. Whatever needs you/your pet(s) have, let me help you with them! Even if you just need me to take your pup to and from daycare, the vet, or a quick trip to the pet store! Wedding chaperone/pet handler? I'm your girl!

Catherine did amazing for over a week of overnights with my behaviorally complex dog! She was very communicative, followed all instructions, administered meds, and even swooped in for an extra evening when my flight got unexpectedly cancelled. I would absolutely leave my pup in her care again (and plan to!)

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
