I wake up early and take my dog on a long walk and would be happy to do the same for yours. I also have lots of space for your dog to play or just nap on the couch.

I have a dog who loves to play but also knows when a dog doesn’t want to play. I also have tons of space in my new house where I can separate the dogs if they need to have a break.

Information Catherine T. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if the dog needs to be crated or not, and how much they eat morning or night or if they are more of a free feeder type. As well as any other information you personally think is important to know in order to effectively care for your dog.

A typical day

I live walking distance from a park and often like to go on long walks through the park. I can definitely bring your dog along with me if they need to get out some energy and get some exercise

Dog loving Teacher!

Pet care experience

Hi! I am Cat and I am a high school math teacher. I live in U. City that is within walking distance of the park for long walks. I have a five year old dog named Bodie who is super friendly and playful I also have a spare crate and bowls for your dog if needed. I have experience with fostering dogs and rescues so I know how to effectively handle dogs who are in unfamiliar places. I also have experience with giant breed dogs as well as young puppies. I am an earlier riser so I have plenty of time to walk your dog and bathroom breaks in the morning. As well as in the afternoons and evenings. My mom also lives close by and she often helps out by letting my dog and whatever dog I am watching in the middle of the day for bathroom breaks and to stretch their legs in the yard. I have a fully fenced yard. my dog loves to play but also is great at tailoring his play so he is good at telling which dogs want to play and which ones do not.

Another great stay with Cat and Bodie! We are so grateful to have found a place for our dog to go when we travel. Would highly recommend this sitter. Thank you!

Catherine was very good with Mars. He was very well taken care of. She had him for 2 weeks (first time) and everything worked out great with no problems.

I never received feed back on Nala so not sure how it went with her. Olaf is a 7 month old high energy puppy. 24 hours after drop off I received a frantic message about his stay. I immediately responded and made arrangements to remove him from Catherine's home but I did not hear back until 2 days later with additional negative issues. When I dropped off the dogs there were multiple clumps of dog hair and dust around the room which was a mild concern. My daughter informed Catherine that she should pick up the papers scattered on the coffee table as Olaf would try to chew on them. This sitter was not a good match for our needs. I would not recommend Catherine for puppies or high energy dogs.
