Highlights
Pet care experience
Let’s explore the great outdoors!
I’ve been taking care of my siblings’ dogs and my roommate’s dog for the past several years. Mostly larger dogs, the majority are Malinois, Shepherds, and labs, which are all very high energy. I’m quite active, so love taking them on walks/runs/hikes or to the park to play chuck it. (The mals in my photos are 3 different dogs - they just all look very similar!)
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in backyard that my brother’s high energy dog (very friendly and well behaved) loves whenever he’s here. I also live two blocks from a park, which is great for walks and chuck it.
Ratings and reviews
Cat is the goat of dog watchers. She has watched Ted on several occasions and he is always well taken care of. She goes over and above to send pictures and make sure that he gets enough exercise and stimuation. 10/10.
I could not recommend a better person to care for your fur babies! Catherine has helped care for my dog, Juniper, since she was a baby and has turned into one of Juniper's favorite people! Catherine cared for Junie in the exact right way, taking her for long walks or to the park to play fetch (two of Junie's favorite things), or giving her all of the love or gentle enrichment that she needed at home. I never had any worries when leaving Junie in Catherine's care and Junie always was thrilled to see her. Catherine treated my dog like her own and I couldn't be more appreciative!
Catherine is a bubbly ball of energy! She has direct experience working with arguably some of the most demanding and intense dog breeds out there: the Belgian Malinois and the Dutch Shepherd. Having personally looked after multiple Malinois, she is uniquely equipped to handle their high intensity needs for both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Because of this background, she is well prepared to care for dogs of all sizes, play styles, and energy levels. She also spent several years living with a roommate who raised a Labrador Retriever puppy, so she is well-versed in puppy care from the ground up. My husband and I own a Belgian Malinois and a Labrador Retriever, and Catherine has looked after them before. Our Malinois can be a lot to handle, but Catherine takes it in stride and she is a Chuckit ball pro. Catherine is also very active and if someone has an active dog, she would be more than willing to take them for runs or bike rides, but she is also happy to have lower energy dogs. I highly recommend Catherine for Rover; any pet owner would be lucky to have her!
I highly recommend Catherine for pet sitting! She has an incredible amount of positive energy and genuinely loves being around dogs. Whenever she visits, she is the first one ready to play fetch, go for walks, or just cuddle on the couch. She is incredibly affectionate and attentive, making her the perfect match for happy, social, and playful dogs who crave companionship and fun. Your pup will definitely get spoiled with attention and come home happy.

Schedule
I’m a teacher, so I have all the time in the world this summer to hang out with pups! My schedule is very flexible, and always includes time exercising outside.
