Ratings and reviews
Thank you!
Catherine is fabulous with all kinds of animals from chickens and ducks, to cats and dogs. She has farm sat for our menagerie of animals and has always done a fantastic job! Highly recommend!
Catherine is my go-to to watch my baby boy cat Finley any time I’m out of town. I’m pretty attached to my cat and extra anxious about leaving him, so Catherine always makes sure to give him lots of love and attention, and always sends me photos that ease my mind!
Catherine (Cat) is an animal lover through and through. She thoughtfully and lovingly cares for her 2 pets, and has become a master of traveling with them—that’s how attentive she is! She has had many pets throughout her life and all have been happy, healthy, and beloved. As long as I have known Cat, she has given her full attention to animals she cares for. She knows how to read their moods and needs, and play with all kinds of pets without overstimulating them. She exudes love and kindness, and is also one of the most organized, detail-oriented, thoughtful people I know. She can remember complex needs and routines and execute them well. Cat’s 6+ years of teaching experience have helped her hone her project and task management skills, as well as her patience, empathy, and compassion. Cat is incredibly smart and a diligent communicator. If she lived in town, she’d be my number one choice for pet care for my 5 cats and elderly dog! I can’t imagine anyone better for the job.

Schedule
I work retail so I often have closing shifts (12-9) which means I can spend a slow morning with your pets and hang out with them in the evening after work. I am also happy to check in between shifts on days when I’m working as well, if needed.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to provide specialized care for every pet. In your home, I will care for them exactly as you would! In my home, I can provide frequent walks and lots of pets. I do have one cat and one chiweenie in my home but I can crate my pets as needed.
Pets
A typical day
I love getting lots of cuddles with pets in the morning! I also enjoy morning walks and lots of fetch, if your pet is so inclined! If I’m caring for pets in my home, I’d love to take them to Rock Creek Park which is nearby.
