Catherine has been our go-to-Rover for the past several months, and she's been great. Our dog is old with physical limitations, and she is very gentle with him. Her communication is awesome, and she's willing to put up with my too-many-mom instructions. Monte has made a good friend.

Catherine was an excellent Rover! Our dog doesn't always love people, but she absolutely loved Catherine! Would highly recommend her!

Catherine was so patient with our new rescue. Giving him time to get used to a new person. I appreciate her willingness to work with us.

I have know Catherine for approximately 16 years (since she was in high school) and she is a very loving person towards people and pets. She has helped me out over the years watching my pets, cats and dogs. She is attentive to them and very responsible. She enjoys getting to know a pet in a personal manner. She is sensitive to any special needs as well. Catherine has grown up locally in Goleta and Santa Barbara and is aware of the local weather for the safety of a pet. She has always been reliable and take the care of a pet very seriously.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Catherine. She has been caring for my 2-year-old Frenchie, Daisy, on a regular basis, and from day one, I knew Daisy was in the best hands. French Bulldogs can be a bit particular, and Daisy definitely has her own little routines and quirks — but Catherine took the time to understand her, connect with her, and make her feel completely comfortable and loved. Every time Daisy sees Catherine, she lights up with excitement. It’s so clear that Catherine has a true love for dogs and a calming, gentle energy that animals naturally respond to. She’s incredibly patient, affectionate, and attentive — the kind of sitter who goes above and beyond without ever being asked. I always feel at ease knowing Daisy is with her. Catherine sends thoughtful updates and photos during their time together, which means the world to me. Seeing Daisy happy, relaxed, and snuggled up or playing during those visits reassures me that she’s not just being watched — she’s being genuinely cared for. Catherine is also incredibly reliable and communicative, which makes everything so smooth. Whether it's sticking to Daisy’s feeding and potty schedule, giving her extra cuddles when she’s feeling a little needy, or just making sure she gets enough playtime and stimulation, Catherine always delivers with love and consistency. Finding someone you can fully trust with your dog is rare, and I feel incredibly lucky to have found that in Catherine. She’s become such an important part of Daisy’s life (and mine), and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and truly exceptional sitter.

Catherine has stayed overnight at my apartment a few times while I was out of town and took wonderful care of my dog. He’s always so excited to see her, she’s very attentive, kind and responsible while she’s at my house and in charge of my dog. She’s respectful of my space which gives me peace of mind which is why I intend to continue using her as my dog sitter.
