Pet care experience

Pet CPR certified professional!

I am a recent college grad, and began working as a “pet care professional” for a pet care (dog walking, feeding, pet sitting, etc) company in Northern Virginia while in school. I am certified in Pet CPR, after taking the course at a local animal shelter. I love animals and would very much appreciate the opportunity to take care of your favorite friend! Services include dog walking, playing fetch, feeding, treats, and extra “TLC” while you are away. And for cats, I can feed, change the litter box, give treats, play, and of course... cuddle! I will put your pets first, always. I know how much they mean to you! I have my own dog, so play dates can always be arranged to get out some extra energy!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every dog and cat like my own, which means I treat them like family! I know it can be daunting to trust someone to come into your home and take care of your pet, but I will do everything I can to make you and your dog/cat as comfortable as possible!

Catherine was absolutely excellent! My dog needed extra care for a foot injury including antibiotics, pain meds, and eye drops since he’s blind and she handled everything perfectly. She was attentive, careful, and kept me updated throughout. I felt at ease knowing Joey was being cared for well.
