Pet care experience
i’ve always loved dogs and cats! as a kid, i would go to the park or to my friends’ houses to play with dogs. i worked as a dog walker over the 2022 & 2023 summers and also dogsat for my friend when she went out of town.
Reviews
Catherine cancelled on us for sitting our dog not once but twice with under a weeks notice. Her excuses were flimsy and her communication poor. When we booked her for a walk, she didn’t follow the instructions on where to walk our dog. Our dog is easily scared by loud noises and very particular about where she goes #2. Instead she showed up later that desired time frame and walked her on the busiest street in town. Would not book again.
Catherine was a fantastic dog walker! I felt totally comfortable leaving my two corgi's in her care!
Catherine did a great job watching our cats. Their food and water were kept full, their litter box was cleaned, and the cats were all given a good amount of playtime!
My go-to. Flexible and great at last-minute stuff.

Safety, trust & environment
when i worked as a dog walker over the summer, my clients would allow me to enter their homes with my own key. i would take the necessary things for the walk and clean up after the dog. as a cat sitter, i would make sure the litter box was clean and the cat had the stimulation needed.
Information Catherine W. would like to know about your pet
let me know if your dog has any medical conditions or concerns. i would also like to know their triggers, if any. if there are specific things you would like me to do, please include it.
A typical day
i love playing tug of war, fetch, and just basic walking/jogging with dogs! i enjoy bringing them to the dog park (if they play with other dogs nicely) to meet new friends! every cat has their own preferences on toys, but once i learn which ones they prefer, i love playing with them!
