My name is Catherine and let me tell you about myself. I am a mature responsible woman who will take care of your pet. I grew up in a house that always had dogs(German Shepard, Chihuahua, mixed breed), cats(Maine Coon, Angora, Short Hair Domestic), and on occasion, rabbits, parakeets and fish. About five years ago, I started watching pets in peoples homes on a professional level. I have watched from one pet to homes with up to five pets(each with specific diets and medications). I believe a pet is more comfortable in their own home than in a strange environment. I keep to the pet's regular schedule of meals, walking and company. I also watch the house, taking in mail and watering plants. I never invite anyone over or leave them home for long periods of time. I take care as if they were my own pets.
