Flexible & Fido-Loving in Fishtown!

Pet care experience

I have owned dogs & cats for my entire life, including five dogs at a single time. Currently, I own & love, two rescue dogs. With the dogs, my partner & I enjoy going for long walks around Philadelphia & hiking in the woods in the region. My professional experience includes 3 years working for a veterinary clinic as well as an additional year working in the retail pet field. I am familiar & comfortable with special needs animals & senior animals. While under my care, you can expect your dog or cat to feel comfortable and happy whether its from lounging on our couch, taking a long stroll around Penn Treaty Park, or exploring our fenced in backyard. I love spending time with animals of all shapes, sizes, & fluffs! I would truly love to help take care of your pets!

Catherine was very flexible! We needed a sotter last minute and she was able to help us out. Our pup had a great time during his stay.

Hazel had a GREAT time with Catherine. She was there for week, and she got great exercise and love and treats. She came home happy and healthy, and we would definitely bring her back. Thanks guys!!!!

Catherine was amazing with my dog Max. He had such a great time playing with her dog bandit and spending time with them. She kept me updated daily with texts and photos of how he was doing, which I liked because I was extremely nervous about leaving him. She made me feel at ease that max was in great hands and having a great time. Would definitely use her again.

Thanksgiving 2016, Catherine not only saved the day for me (getting a walker was a last minute decision) but also helped me save face with my family members. They insisted I bring Czar along and was very disappointed I decided to leave him at home. I shared around dinner table the checkin pic and all was forgiven. They all know a particular position Czar takes with people he is comfortable and affectionate with. Catherine and Czar were in that same position in the pic. All was forgiven and I enjoyed my Thanksgiving relaxing. Thanks. Catherine will definitely be at the top of my list for future Rover requests!!!

A typical day

Fishtown is a wonderful & diverse neighborhood that is perfect to explore alongside your pup! We live right down the street from Penn Treaty Park, which is great to socialize with other dogs & to spend time outside. Additionally, we live in walking distance to the fenced in Triangle Dog Park that is always good for a romp.
