Highlights
Pet care experience
Home All Day for Your Dog
I’ve been around and cared for dogs all of my life. I work from home with a nice fenced backyard and I live across the street from Bluemont park with lots of fields and trails for exploring. I have a 9 year old golden Cavalier (Clover) and we go on long walks in the park and around the neighborhood. Your dog will be allowed on the furniture and the bed if you like or in their crate when needed if that is your preference. I’m home all day and give lots of attention to the dogs I care for. I will only care for one dog at a time along with my dog.

Ratings and reviews
Cathleen took wonderful care of our Winnie while we were away. Winnie is an senior dog, so we really appreciated Cathleen’s thoughtful updates and how attentive and caring she was throughout the stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Winnie was doing well, enjoying her walks, and eating all her food. Winnie also had such a great time with Cathleen’s dog, Clover. They got along so well, and it was nice knowing Winnie had a sweet companion during her stay. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care and would absolutely trust Cathleen again in the future!

Cathleen was an amazing caregiver for Lecron, and just an awesome person overall!! Would highly recommend!

Cathleen was such a special caregiver for Willow -‘we are incredibly grateful. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

My dog Mabel loves going to Cathleen’s house. She takes such great care of her, taking walks with her dog Clover and just providing a loving and caring environment. She sends photos showing Mabel and Clover napping together. So nice to not have to worry when I’m away.
I cannot recommend Cathleen enough, especially when it comes to pet care. She is dedicated and caring pet owner and I trust her with my dogs completely. You will not find a more trustworthy and dependable dog walker.
I’m happy to recommend Cathleen as a dog walker and pet caregiver on Rover. I jokingly call her “Dr. Dolittle” because she truly has a natural connection with every dog we encounter when walking our dogs together. Cathleen absolutely loves spending time with dogs, and it shows in the way they respond to her. My dog Rocky adores her - Cathleen is her favorite person outside of our family. She genuinely enjoys taking long walks in the park with dogs, and she makes it more than just exercise—it’s quality time for the dogs she cares for. Cathleen is attentive, patient, and clearly understands how to make dogs feel comfortable and safe. On top of that, she has experience fostering dogs, which says a lot about her compassion and commitment to animal care. Any dog in Cathleen’s care will be treated with kindness, attention, and genuine affection. I trust her completely with my own dog and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and enthusiastic dog walker or sitter.

Schedule
I am self employed and work from home so your dog will get lots of attention. Your dog will rarely be left alone and if so not for a long time. I take daily walks (2 times a day) so that is already part of my routine.
