Canine Companion Extraordinaire 🐾

Pet care experience

What makes me stand out as your pet sitter is my genuine passion for pups. I'm not just here to clock in and out; I'm here to make tails wag and hearts sing. I've spent years building friendships with our four-legged buddies, and I take their happiness seriously. Whether it's leashed play at the park, belly rubs on the couch, or a brisk walk to chase birds and squirrels, I'm all in. Your dogs aren't just clients to me; they're like family, and I promise to give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve. Rest assured, they'll be in the best pawsible hands! 🐾

Catherine did an amazing job with Felix. I got daily updates and photos, and she was very flexible with my schedule and travel times. Felix usually has a little bit of anxiety once he comes back home, but not in this case at all, which goes to show how comfortable he was. 10/10 intend to book again :)

Catherine was great with my dog Mako! Mako can be anxious and Catherine was very reassuring and willing to work with Mako’s needs. I got plenty of photos during Mako’s stay and Catherine communicated regularly with me the whole time. We’ll definitely be back!

Catherine is such an amazing sitter! Finnley has stayed with her multiple times, and Catherine has taken such great care of her every time.

Catherine was excellent! She was very prepared and comfortable working with our dog. She sent plenty of photos and videos and took our dog on long walks to exercise him. We felt very assured and would definitely book with her again. Thanks, Catherine!

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to caring for pets, safety, trust, and creating the right environment are my top priorities. In my home, I keep it clutter free to keep curious explorers safe and away from what could be harmful. Potty-trained fur friends are welcome to roam my apartment and leash use begins from the moment my shoes are on (inside the house) until we return. I maintain a clean and hygienic space, ensuring a safe environment at all times. When the weather starts getting warm, out comes the fan and air conditioner! Some of our fur friends overheat easily and we definitely don’t want that! Rest assured, your pet will thrive in a place where they're not just a guest but a cherished friend. For in-home visits, I bring the same dedication. I understand that your pet's environment is their sanctuary. I follow routines and instructions to the letter, maintaining a familiar atmosphere to reduce any stress. Trust is paramount, and you can rely on me to provide the loving care and attention your pet needs, right in the comfort of their own home. Whether it's my place or yours, your pet's safety and happiness are my utmost concerns. You can count on me to create a trusted and comfortable space for your beloved companion.

Information Catherine K. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing your pet’s comfort levels with being around too many people, anxiety with vehicles and buses, if it’s okay for them to have a little whip-cream, if they are comfortable with public transport (the monorail) and things like that so I can plan our outdoor activities.

A typical day

During the times I’m cooking or working from home, your 4-legged loved ones will most likely be people/dog/squirrel watching at my floor-to-ceiling windows or keeping me company while some music is playing on the background. When we go out during our daily walks, we walk a tried and true circuit around the park behind the space needle that can be shortened or lengthened depending on your pup’s energy levels. When the weather is super permitting, we walk to the pier and enjoy the breeze coming from the water! For weekend pet pals in the summer, I’m hoping to incorporate some enjoy the sun day trips!
