I just love to be around dogs!
Pet care experience
I've had a dog for 15 years. I love to give them the attention they need, bring them on walks or to the dog park for exercise. I can give them the attention that they need during the day while also giving them some extra exercise and play time. I am also very active, so if the dog likes to go on runs I can take them on my run with me. I love to go rollerblading and usually take my dog with me, so if they are behaved well enough that I can take them, I will! I usually play fetch with my dog everyday for 30 minutes, so we can do that plus additional other exercise if they would like to! I also love lazy dogs, I'm totally willing to just snuggle up on a couch with one! I'm accepting of every energy-level dog.
Reviews
GREAT job Catherine! Ives was happy and well cared for - thank you.
My pup had a great stay with Catherine! She was very accommodating to schedule changes due to inclement weather. I’ll surely call upon her again.
Sully had a great time!!! Catherine was wonderful about keeping us posted throughout his stay! Will definitely use her again!
Elliott had a great time!! Awesome sitter! He came home tired!

My dog is crated at home so I would prefer the dog be crated trained, but if not they will be separated. Our dog is treated almost like a child, and we promise yours will be too!

Information Catherine J. would like to know about your pet
I just want to know that they are a friendly dog! I prefer bigger dogs, but I don't mind small ones either. I do have a dog in my house, so they would have to be able to get along with him. But usually, I love all the dogs, no matter their size or breed!
A typical day
If the dog likes to be around other dogs, I will gladly bring them to the dog park. There are many trails around us that we can go walk on. If the dog likes the lake, I would also love to bring them so they can swim.

The dogs would get walked every morning, then let out every 4-5 hours. Then once we get back from work for the day we will either take them on an additional walk or play fetch. My boyfriend and I both take care of the pups, and he works from home every day. I work hybrid and have a flexible schedule.
