I love animals!

Pet care experience

I owned a domestic shorthair cat and a black German Shepherd, both from kitten/puppy stages until end of life. My cat was diagnosed diabetic at 10yo, so I know how to administer insulin shots. My dog was diagnosed with a seizure disorder around 8yo, so I am familiar with those symptoms. I live right across from a dog park which I used regularly, and used to walk my dog 45 minutes a day around Colonial Place. I enjoy the company of animals, and miss mine, but am not ready to get a new one for myself quite yet. I took very good care of my fur-babies, and will give the same care to yours. I am also doing this to supplement my income from part-time work at a local non-profit.

This review comes with the highest possible recommendation for Catherine Henderson. Over the last three years, she has proven to be an incredibly reliable, responsible and loving canine caregiver. Our dog, Guiness, is a 130-pound Akita mix who’s had a special place in our home for the last 10 years. It’s so important for us that he receives the best quality of life at his senior age and she has always been ready, willing and exceedingly able to provide that in our absence. If it were not for us knowing Catherine, I am confident Guiness would’ve chosen her himself to care for him!

She’s the best! Watched our dog off and on for years before she passed. Currently watches our cat when gone on long trips! You will not be disappointed.

I’ve met Cate Henderson as one of my neighbors and known her for years now. Even though me and my husband have moved here recently she’s still one of the only people we trust our pets with. We have left our dogs in Cate’s care on many of occasions when we go out of town. She goes out of her way to make sure our dogs were comfortable and well taken care of. I would recommend her to anyone who’s needs help with there fur babies.
