While I work full time Monday to Friday I'm currently half week work from home and the other half still in Hampden at my office. I have flexibility on my hours so able to do day walks and organize drop off/pick up for most times.

About Catherine M.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in back yard for any older pups that don't enjoy longer walks or have issues with our front stairs (no stairs to access the yard); I usually do 3-4 walks on the leash for dogs that enjoy that more, though! I also have experience crating dogs and usually do that when I need to step out. For dogs that can't sleep over night in the crate I'll usually sleep on my couch with them to ensure they have company but also won't get into anything unexpected while I'm sleeping.

Information Catherine M. would like to know about your pet
I do have two cats that have learned to watch and wonder about dogs. Also, unfortunately, I don't have access to a car, so I can't make it much further than a mile to visit and walk your pup/help care for any other fur-babies you may have. But if you're looking for someone to house-sit for a few days that's still possible if you're further than a 15-20 minute walk from me. I'm very flexible and do love caring for these cuties while I'm at a point where I can't own a dog myself.
A typical day
I live near the park at Kewsick and 33rd in Hampden so there's a lot of great walking areas near here. My house is two levels and the dogs are allowed on the first floor to give our cats space upstairs. We also have a completely fenced in backyard - it's not huge, but we often sit outside with our two cats who are able to be off-leash back there. Many dogs have enjoyed the sun and breeze with us as well! My husband will also aid in caring for the pups, and as a personal trainer he'd love to take your dog for a run if that's something your dog would enjoy!

Pet care experience
I have prior experience volunteering at the SPCA and BARCs with the cats, including fostering, and have been working with dogs through Rover for the last 8 years. I’m excited at the chance to watch or walk your sweet pup. I’d be excited to get to know your dog and learn what makes them really happy. Someday I hope to adopt my own dog, but until then I adore housing and watching dogs of all kinds! I’m really excited for the day I get my own dog, but until then I’d love to get to know yours, get all the snuggles and walks I can, and hopefully brighten their day!
Reviews
Catherine did a great job watching our cat, as always. Thank you!
Catherine is a wonderful sitter who always takes great care of my pets, and she goes above and beyond. Whenever something comes up, whether it be one of my pet's quirks, or a last minute travel plan emergency, she takes it in her stride and comes through! Reliable and kind with animals, cannot recommend enough :)
great sitter, easy communication, and a happy dog :)
Catherine took excellent care of our cat while we were out of town. It was clear from the daily pictures how well the two get along. We've hired her before and will again!
