Safe Walks & Happy Tails in SD! 🐕

**STARTING AT A DISCOUNTED PRICE (so I can get some good reviews) TAKE ADVANTAGE** 😻 Hi, I'm Catie! While I am launching my professional pet sitting career, I bring a lifetime of personal devotion, deep patience, and specialized care straight to your doorstep. In my own home, I manage a beautifully blended, multi-pet family. I am the proud pet parent of a 55lb, 16 yr old senior dog, who is currently navigating mobility loss, as well as a wonderful 7 yr old cat. They have lived together for years and get along exactly like brothers! As your neighbor, my goal is to give you total peace of mind. For house sitting, I provide dedicated care and evening companionship (while dropping home during the day/night to check on my own sweet babies of course). Whether you need an attentive neighborhood walk, a patient senior drop-in, or dedicated cat care, I will treat your fur babies with the exact same vigilance, safety, and love that I give my own. 🫶🏻

We had a wonderful experience with Catherine! She watched our pups on short notice and was incredibly attentive to each of their individual needs and quirks. She really listened to everything we told her and made sure to follow it, which gave us so much confidence. Our dogs are large, strong leash pullers and definitely aren’t the easiest to handle, but she managed them so well and truly impressed us. She also kept us updated with photos and let us know every time they ate and went potty, which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her!

Schedule

Pet care is already the central focus of my daily routine, as I manage a structured schedule for my own 16 yr old senior dog and 7 yr old cat. I am highly disciplined with my time management and routine tracking. Pet care isn't just a side job for me—it is a seamless extension of the daily love and vigilance I already practice at home.
