Safety, trust & environment

I believe that routine is especially important when pet parents are away. This includes keeping their environment clean and safe, verifying pet locations and securing possible entrances before activating any alarms and leaving.

Information Catherine M. would like to know about your pet

I always want to know their usual routine, any special needs, what they consider rewards and favorite toys/games. I also need to know any medical conditions/needs, special fears/triggers or behaviors. For example - if she starts scooting, she may trouble with her anal sacs or she hates the mailman, so please keep the inside door shut until he comes. Or he eats toilet paper, so keep the bathroom door closed.

A typical day

There are many different games to play, from tug to chase; from running through basic commands to just a good ear scratch or belly rub. All depends on what your pet is used to.

Catherine took such great care of our little princess. She was extremely professional and kept us informed the whole time we were away. Our dog loved her calm demeanor. Our dog is a blind, diabetic little softie who requires help to get up and down stairs but again Catherine was up for the task. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to look after your dog.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
