Will treat your dog like my own!

Pet care experience

I can be available Thanksgiving if you are okay with your dog traveling by car with me! Message me for details! Please note I do work full time on weekdays 9-5! I come home for an hour lunch to walk my pup. I grew up with 3 hound/beagle mixes and helped to train and care for them. I rescued my dog Ristretto in April of 2018. He always wants new friends. His name is Ristretto and he is a friendly bundle of energy. I have dog sat throughout my life for neighbors. So I do have previous experience caring for other people's dogs as well. I want the best for my own dog and spoil him rotten, so you can be sure your dog will be spoiled too if he stays with me! I do work full time during the week (Mon - Fri), but am close enough to work that I usually come home and walk my dog during lunch. I can do the same for your dog! Please keep this in mind if you book weekday services! I would love to watch your dog for you!

Cathleen is always great and my dog loves her! Anytime we visit Richmond, I feel comfortable with Malcolm staying with her. She's so nice and thoughtful and Malcolm never wants to leave!

My senior Boston terrier had a wonderful stay with Cathleen and her dog, Risterreto. More importantly, Cathleen made us feel comfortable that our dog was receiving great care while we were out of town. She is a thoughtful and responsible dog-sitter, and we confidently recommend Cathleen; we will definitely use her services again.

Cathleen is a genuinely wonderful person and awesome dog sitter! Ryman had a great weekend with her and her sweet pup, Ristretto. Cathleen was flexible and understanding when our flight got delayed and we got back later than expected. She’s professional, kind, and very responsible. We will definitely have her dog sit Ryman again!

Information Cathleen M. would like to know about your pet

I need a dog who is okay with other dogs and is friendly overall. No breed preferences or restrictions, as long as they can get along with my dog, we are fine!

A typical day

We will walk and explore Boulevard St and the Museum District. I also really enjoy the dog park in Byrd Park. I have a small back yard and my own dog that will keep your dog company and let them play and have social time.
