Information Catherine H. would like to know about your pet

Any aggressive behaviors or triggers. Food restrictions, special commands, routines, favorites (treats, toys, activities, scratches). How often they need to go outside, if they are leash trained and crate trained.

A typical day

Walks around our neighborhood or take a trip to the local dog park, or just playing in the back yard. We have lots of toys and room on the couch for snuggles.

Pets

Will sit all animals

Pet care experience

I have been around all types of animals since I was a kid. I have experience with dogs, cats, snakes, birds, rabbits, hamsters, fish, lizards, goats, and turtle/ tortoises. No animal is too big or small (as long as it won't try to eat my face)! I like going for walks or to the dog park. I am patient and calm and can generally match the needs of an animal. Your animals will be in good hands with me. Our pets are part of the family and yours will be treated as such, too. I do my absolute best to follow any routines that you may have in order to reduce stress.

Hope and JO JO loved Catherine and enjoyed the time she spent with them. She did everything and more with them. She was very responsive and sent multiple pictures of them having fun. I would suggest and will use her again for watching my 2 dogs
