Pet care experience

Experienced, reliable animal lover!

I grew up with an 80-pound rescue mix, and I have been taking care of other people's pets for over ten years, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I have cared for a wide variety of breeds, from pit-bulls to cockapoos. I have experience with older dogs who have strict medical needs and puppies who need round-the-clock attention and training, and all ages in between. For three years, I volunteered with New York Therapy Animals. While I have my own dog, she will be staying with my sister during boardings, so I can give your amazing pet my full attention!

I've known Catie for a long time, and can confirm that she is a caring, trustworthy, and responsible caregiver. She was the first person to watch my Cockapoo, Trixie, when she was a puppy, and she did an amazing job. She diligently stuck to Trixie's schedule, sent regular and reassuring updates, and did everything within her power to make Trixie feel completely at home and loved. To this day, she remains one of Trixie's favorite people. I highly recommend Catie as a pet sitter, and would place my beloved pup in her care again unquestionably.

Catie is an excellent and knowledgeable dog sitter. She co-parents our dog and is wonderful with her. Catie understands dog behavior well and can tell from their actions what dogs need or how to best care for them. She always provides lots of walks, play time, and a healthy setting. She is attentive and warm and a gentle animal lover. She is calm and friendly and makes sure that dogs in her care are loved and stress-free. She once told me that letting a dog sniff on a walk is like scrolling on Instagram for them. This perfectly captures Catie as a dog sitter - compassionate, knowledgeable, and qualified. She will provide a happy, healthy home for your dog. She lives in a neighborhood with lovely residential streets, and park access. Catie is responsible as well, punctual, and responsive to communication. Plus she takes great photos of dogs so you'll love the updates you get!

Catie is incredible with pets! She radiates kindness in which pets can feel comfortable with her. She is an amazing dog mom. She has watched and fostered multiple pups in the past. I would trust my dog's life with her. She is very responsible and attentive. She is reliable and is able to stay calm in emergency situations. She is professional and has impeccable communication skills. Catie would be a great addition to the Rover.com family!

Pets

A typical day

I'm happy to provide tons of mental and physical stimulation during your pet's stay. I live in a residential area that is very green. We can go to the multiple parks that are nearby, and take long walks around the beautiful, quiet neighborhood. At home, we can play with toys, practice training with treats, and do puzzles/games.
