86% bookings with photo updates

Dog skills

27 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in the clients home. Whatever the pets are allowed to do there goes. Some of my personal boundaries in regards to being in the kitchen and sleeping arrangements will come into play.

Information Catherine S. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to do at least one meet and greet before actually taking care of your pet. If time allows and especially for more nervous dogs more meet and greets scheduled. This helps everyone get comfortable with each other and be on the same page.

A typical day

Dog activities will depend on time of day. Walking , throwing a ball , playing with toys inside or out and playing tug are my usual activities.

Conscientious and loving!

Pet care experience

I am a leader and a spoiler of pets. I have general understanding of dogs through just watching them and from watching Cesar Milan and Victoria Stilwell, of the show ‘It’s Me or the Dog’.

Catherine was great with our dog, Honey. She arrived early and Honey warmed up to her after a few minutes. Catherine sent pics while we were out which was nice. We would definitely request her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
