Pet care experience

Your dog’s home away from home 🐾❤️

I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been a huge animal lover. In my home, dogs are family, and I want your dog to feel as comfortable here as they do in their own home. I’ll do my best to keep their normal routine and follow the same rules they’re used to. If your dog sleeps in your bed, curls up with you on the couch, or is used to having full roam of the house, they can do the same here. I want this to feel like a second home, not a boarding facility. I’ve also been on the other side of Rover. I used Rover for my own dog, Carl, so I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your baby. Carl has since passed away, and while I’m not ready for another dog of my own yet, I really miss having one around to love on. Caring for other people’s dogs gives me a chance to have that joy again while providing the same kind of loving, home-like care I always wanted for Carl. My 5-year-old daughter is also a huge animal lover and is very comfortable around dogs. We live in an apartment but have our own small backyard with a doggie door for easy outdoor access. Any dog staying with us will get lots of attention, affection, and will truly be treated like part of our family while they’re here. 🐾❤️

Catherine is one of the most caring and responsible women in my life and I am so blessed to call her my friend! She LOVES dogs and I am so excited to see her love grow while caring for the furry ones of others. She is diligent in her work, an excellent communicator, and intuitive - your cutie will be in great hands with her!

Kate was amazing with my dog! She took care of him for two days and nights, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care. She has had dogs most of her life, and it really showed—he felt right at home with her. She is caring, trustworthy, responsible, and clearly loves animals. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for safe, loving pet care.

Kate has had dogs in her life ever since she was born. She treasures their companionship and makes them a part of the family. She's very caring and would be a wonderful choice for watching a person's family pet.

Schedule

I’ll primarily be offering care on weekends, when I can be home and give your dog plenty of attention. I want their stay to feel like a fun, comfortable weekend at home rather than being left alone for long periods. They’ll have lots of time for cuddles, play, potty breaks, walks, and just hanging out with us!

Safety, trust & environment

My goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I’ll follow the routine and rules they’re used to at home, including feeding schedules, walks, sleeping arrangements, and even couch privileges! Dogs are welcome to roam my home and be part of the family. We also have a small private backyard with a doggie door for easy outdoor access. I’ll follow any specific instructions you provide so your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.
