Information Catherine N. would like to know about your pet

I will trust that any pertinant information be forthcoming. If you prefer, I would be happy to first meet you and your pet to discuss their energy requirements, off-limit areas in your home and yard, and treat protocol.

A typical day

I am an active person who loves swimming, hiking and playing fetch with your dog if he/she retrieves. If you have an older dog, or dog with a healing or recent injury I will accomodate their energy requirements accordingly. Of course belly rubs and back scratches are a no-brainer :-) You will return to happy, healthy dogs!

Pets

*TRUSTWORTHY AND EXPERIENCED*

Pet care experience

I love dogs, cats, birds, reptiles... pretty much anything with fur, feathers or scales! I have dog and cat sat for clients, friends and acquaintances for over 20 years for both daily and overnight visits. I promise your pet will be in excellent hands and have fun while you're away. I have also worked in animal rehab, so am comfortable giving any oral medications. I will walk and excercise your pet as much as you or they prefer. In addition, I have volunteered at various shelters walking and loving on the dogs. I LOVE ANIMALS!!! “Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.”– Orhan Pamuk ***The prices I give for cats for overnight stays is if your household includes BOTH dogs and cats. If you ONLY have cats, my overnight rate is $25 and $7 for each additional cat.*** :-) I am currently working remotely, but occasionally have to travel locally. Managing my time around your pets needs is my top priority. We will work together, so that you will have complete confidence while you are away. I currently am unable to board cats or dogs at my home, but am happy to come to yours. I am aware that each dog or cat has a unique personality and I will provide nothing but the most excellent care. I prefer to do a meet and greet beforehand so that both parties are satisfied.

Catherine was great with our dog. They went on long walks together. The house was perfect when we returned. Will definitely use Catherine again.

My Pups had a Great Time with Catherine. She made sure they got lots of exercise and even let them have some good sniffing time along the way!

Catherine took excellent care of our cat while we were on vacation. She was very detail oriented and put my mind at ease by sending me pictures and communicating with me throughout her stay. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.

Catherine did a great job keeping my Pups happy while I was away. She kept me up to date several times a day to let me know how they were doing and sent some cute pics!
