It'd be awesome to spend some time with your dogs and cats! I have extensive pet care experience with my own and many of my friends and family's pets of all sizes and breeds and just love animals in general! I also have animal care experience at the Bronx Zoo. I love to scratch their heads, rub their bellies, play outside, practice some training, or just lounge at home with them. I am also very comfortable with large dog breeds. My bf Daniel loves cats and dogs as well and is always here to help care for your fur babies too so they’ll never be alone!

Catherine took care of Snoopy as if it were her own! She constantly sent updates throughout the day and made me feel secure that little fella is in the right place. Would be more than willing to go back! Thanks Catherine!
Thank you to Catherine and her family for watching Alkong! I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Catherine. The space was great and it was great for him to have a large backyard to get his zoomies out. She sent us many photos and videos of Alkong throughout his stay. I would definitely reach out to her again in the future!
Catherine was a responsible and awesome dog sitter for our medium/large dog. There’s a large fenced yard for off leash fun, but she also took our dog on walks. Her dog and ours got along, and along with her family, our dog always seemed to have companionship. She frequently sent pics/videos and was quick with communication.
This was our first time using the Rover services and it was a great start. Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our Thor. He felt right at home with her at her place. He was happy and playful and all of his needs were met. The accommodations were perfect for him. Access to the enclosed yard to just run and sniff around were a bonus. He even had the opportunity to explore after this year’s first snow. She was patient and generous with him. She allowed him to sleep with them so he could feel at ease and at home there. She also sent pictures regularly so I felt reassured that things were going well. Their dog, Finn, was also incredibly patient and calm even when Thor was intimidated and yapping at first. They eventually seemed to coexist just fine. I would highly recommend Catherine’s services to anyone…especially to a family that may be worried about leaving their fur baby for the first time or for an extended period of time.
