Catherine was very caring and updated us about Luna with lots of pictures. Knowing that Luna was happy and being cared for while we were away by such a great person made it easier to relax and enjoy the trip. We will definitely be using Catherine again.

Our dog was very at home with Catherine- they made us feel very at ease leaving her there for 5 days. You can tell they love dogs, and it was great knowing our dog was relaxed and cared for while we were away!

Teddy enjoyed his stay with Catherine and Natz. I know he was a handful and very energetic but I knew he was well taken care of. Thank you so much…Donna and Dean

This was Junior’s third visit and he had a wonderful weekend with Catherine. We loved all the pictures sent throughout his stay. He felt right at home. We recommend and trust Catherine 100%.

Catherine is an amazing dog sitter. I wish we lived closer. We have now used 2 years when at a conference in Brantford and Hamilton area last 2 years. If you need a sitter, use Catherine. Your dog will feel right at home.❤️🐶❤️

Safety, trust & environment

I can provide fenced outdoor playtime with enrichment activities. Excellent and safe neighborhood for walking. If the pet travels well, hiking and park playdates are an option.

A typical day

I feel that each dog has individual personalities and requirements. Activities would be geared to information provided by parents. Such activities could include exploring the neighborhood or the trails at a park nearby. Backyard time with a ball, indoor snuggles and toy time.

I would like to know about their personality, likes, dislikes, any triggers that they may be sensitive to, socialization level with other dogs as well as children. Do they enjoy car rides and what is the preferred vehicle safety protocol that they prefer ex. kennel or do they have a safety seat belt harness. Medical information is very important which includes allergies, vaccination status, medications, supplements and the veterinarian's contact information. Their normal daily schedule for feeding, potty breaks, snacks. Would any training or obedience issues need to be addressed and in what manner. Consistency with the owner's methods is very important ex. jumping up
