House Sitting • Jun 08, 2026

Catherine gets 100 stars in our opinion! She was scheduled to house sit and take care of our dog Frankie for one day but the night before we were leaving for 4 days the second sitter, who was covering additional days, cancelled due to an emergency. Catherine saved us on a moment's notice.! Our house and Frankie were perfect upon our return. She is the absolute best sitter we've had! Your pet will be in the best of care if you put your trust in Catherine.

We could not have asked for a better dog sitter. Catherine stayed at our home with our dog for 12 days and took exceptional care the entire time. She sent daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind. Our dog was happy and healthy when we returned. We would absolutely book Catherine again and recommend her to family and friends.

Catherine did a great job house sitting and pet sitting my golden retriever for 5 nights. She was extremely professional throughout the entire process and left my home clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to book with her again!
