Gentle, loving pet-care

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for cats and dogs my entire life. For the last 9 years, I’ve been providing cat and dog care for friends and coworkers. I am a life-long animal lover, and I am particularly skilled at approaching animals with a quiet, gentle, and patient demeanor to befriend even the most frightened or shy beings!

Catherine was very professional and did a great job taking care of Fry. I really appreciated the consistent communication

Catherine goes above and beyond when caring for my cat! I can be a bit overprotective but I feel completely at ease when Catherine is caring for my cat cause I know she is getting all the love and attention she needs. I can always count on Catherine to always show up and go the extra mile for my cat.

Catherine was a wonderful pet sitter for my cat, Lady Brienne. Lady Bri is super shy around new people, but Catherine had her cuddling the very first day! Catherine sent wonderful photos and videos of my cat every day, and followed her treat, litter, and food schedule to a T. She was great at making sure Lady Bri got all of the attention she needed while I was gone. I missed my cat while I was traveling for 2 weeks, but it was a relief to know she was being looked after so well. I would definitely recommend Catherine as a pet sitter!

Catherine, has been a wonderful caregiver for my dog. She had watched over my dog for a few afternoons and my dog loved her and didn’t want to even leave. I highly recommend trusting your animal care with her!
