Pets come first!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs my whole life, and currently work as a vet assistant. I love all dogs of all sizes, and have experience working with many different breeds and temperaments through work. My dog Obi is very high energy, so I have had plenty of experience trying to keep high energy dogs occupied. We go for hikes in the McDonald teaching forest at least once a week, and spend a lot of that time working on continuing his education stimulating his brain! He has both some dog aggression issues and some anxiety issues, so he would not be meeting your pets at any point. I do also have some experience caring for dogs with those issues. Thank you for considering me to watch your pups!

Catherine was quick to respond and attentive every step of the way. She texted with updates and took great care of our 'baby girl'. Would definitively recommend her ;)

Catherine is a very enthusiastic sitter. She took to Zephyr right away and I can tell he misses the attention he was getting. I recommend Catherine and will use her again. Thanks so much.

What can I say about Catherine? She is a wonderful person with a positive outlook on life and her surroundings. With her job experience working at a dog kennel she has experience working with all kinds and sizes of dogs! She has one herself and loves to take him places, whether it's to the dog park, a hike on some mountain trail, or just down the street, she enjoys every second of it. She passionate, motivated, and just plain loves animals! I think she would be the PERFECT candidate for this job.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m pretty big on routine and boundaries for dogs, as I think they help our furry friends to live anxiety free lives! I also think mental stimulation is important, so making sure that they’re engaged and using their noggins.

Information Catherine S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know favorite treats, toys, and games so I can be sure to take care of your dog the same way you would! I would also like to know how they are with on leash interactions with other dogs, just so I know how to handle those situations.

A typical day

I really enjoy going to parks and trails with the pets I’m working with, and am happy to go on any near your house. If they like car rides and they are okay seeing other dogs I am also happy to drive them (with your permission) to other trails
