Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal lover since I was born!
Hi! I love working with animals of all shapes and sizes. I have been dog walking, housesitting, and caring for animals for well over 5 years part time and full time! I have also worked in multiple veterinary clinics, I am experienced giving injections, fluids, and oral medication. I am great at developing relationships depending on each animal’s personality and needs. Whether it will be to come feed/play with a cat, go on a long walk to relieve a younger dog of all their energy, hang out and give the old timer some love or medicate an animal if needed! Can’t wait to meet your animals!

Safety, trust & environment
When I have cared for pets in the past I ask about the house rules, boundaries, medicine/allergies, and any other behaviors a cat/dog might have, for example being afraid of other dogs/cats/men or even the dark in some cases. I personally always walk a dog on a leash to have control of any unpredictable instances. I stick to the desired feeding schedule and ask about treats that may or may not be give.
Ratings and reviews
Our dogs love her! They’re always a little pouty when we get home because we think they miss her and like her more than us!
Catherine R. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Wonderful with our two dogs, would definitely hire again!!
Catherine(cat) was an amazing sitter for our cat. She had great communication and was engaging with our cat. I felt comfortable with her care. I would definetly contact her again for cat sitting.
We appreciate Catherine so much! We would trust our girls in your care over and over again. Our girls are always so happy and thank you for communicating any and all needs and concerns while they were in your care. Thank you!
Cat was so great with our pups! They looked so happy in their pictures while we were out of town and we can tell they were well taken care of. We plan on booking her any time we can when we head out of town!

Schedule
Currently I own a cat named Bobby. He has a sensitive GI track. When I first got him I had to figure out why he had irregular bowl movement and then find a natural food for sensitive tummy’s. He is on a strict diet that has to be kept up with. He is also a young g cat that requires mental stimulation through out the day with lasers and bird feathers (he does not enjoy the colorful toys used for self entertainment, figures)

- I always want owners to be honest about all behaviors. I am open to and have worked with dogs that tend to be protective, scared, or don’t get along with other dogs. I also like to know if they have and triggers, allergies, or habits. For example if a dog has a favorite spot to go potty, I like to know any details (even if they seem silly) to be able to become part of their routine and make them feel comfortable/safe!
