Pet care experience

All Animals Welcome!

Hi, I'm Catherine! I'm a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent to three rescue animals of my own. I am a flexible, patient, and dependable caregiver who will treat your pets like family. With a background in animal welfare and hands-on experience volunteering with local shelters and rescues, I'm comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also have experience with bunnies, guinea pigs, other small mammals, and reptiles. Your pet's individual needs are always my top priority. I love creating a fun, safe, and enriching environment; whether that means making healthy homemade treats, teaching new tricks, or providing stimulating activities tailored to your pet's personality. With your pups, we can enjoy outdoor playtime, neighborhood walks, or visits to pet-friendly spots in your area. With your cats, we can engage in interactive play, cozy companionship, and even a relaxing read-aloud session. I'd love the opportunity to meet and care for your furry (or scaly!) family members. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to connecting with you!

Catherine is always so great with Angus and we feel at ease while we’re gone knowing she is caring for our furry guy. She’s awesome! 😎

Catherine is so great with our dog and 2 cats. She spends time playing with them and taking Roxy for walks. She sends us awesome pictures every day so that we can see they are doing well. She even brought Roxy some new toys to play with. I would highly recommend Catherine for your pet sitting needs.

My husband and I just returned from a 11 day vacation to Australia, and we are beyond grateful to have Catherine stay in our home and take care of our fur baby. She is a trustworthy, responsible, fun loving and incredibly caring to Carmel, our yellow lab. We appreciate all she does for Carmel and will 100% re-book with Catherine. THANK YOU.
