Pet care experience

Special spot for your loved ones

I treat every pet like they are my own beloved dog! Your dog will recieve all the love, care and attention I lavished on my own pup, who passed this year. Spending time with dogs has been very therapeutic for me, as I'm currently in remission, and working part-time from home. I look forward to meeting your dog and catering to their individual needs. You can expect several walks every day, toys, enrichment games, and grooming as needed. I have years of experience, knowledge of dog behaviour and first aid.

Catherine was great! She communicated often with pictures and videos of my little old Drè, Catherine also said she was very fond of my old boy. She took very good care of him and even gave him some treats! Catherine said that my boy was very sweet. He is though. I would 100% recommend Catherine.

Catherine was a pleasure to work with. She understood the needs of my doggo, who suffers from severe separation anxiety. We were in town for a wedding and thought it’d be easier to get a sitter. Received several updates throughout the day and we knew Maui was in great hands. We were extremely nervous at first but after our fist trial date, Maui seem to settle in this time for her overnight stay. Whenever we’re in town and need another sitter, I will definitely go back to Catherine again!!!!

Got updates daily. Catherine even did some Nail trimming and brushing while my doggies were there. They seemed to really enjoy their cuddles and walks. Would recommend.

We are so happy with the care Catherine gives our girl Princess. We fully trust her and Princess adores her.

Catherine is the best person to take care of of your furry loved one—there’s a good reason I keep sending my pupper(s) to her
