Information Cathy C. would like to know about your pet

Very important information to know is if a dog has any medical issues I should be aware of, allergies or has shown aggression towards people or other animals. We have a chewer at home who likes to swallow socks and paper so my house has been chew proofed. ❤️

A typical day

I love taking my dog to off leash parks daily to run and socialize with other dogs. I have a fully fenced in yard where they can play or lie and enjoy themselves on the deck. In the summer the kiddie pool is set up for those who enjoy frolicking in the water.

Your Furbaby’s Home away from Home

Pet care experience

I love all dogs - big or small, young and old. After losing my dog to cancer, I offered to take care of a stranger’s 14 year old dog over Christmas so she could go to England to visit family. Best experience I had. After that, I began fostering dogs from rescues and loved doing that. I have a 12 year old labradoodle who was a rescue. He is a big love bug and gets along with all dogs. He loves having other fur friends stay with us. I have taken care of my friends’ dogs for week long vacations and/or weekends. My adult children (27 and 24 year old) live with me at home. My 24 year old daughter has an intellectual disability and she loves taking care of animals. It is good experience for her.

Cathy delivered an outstanding experience for us, going above and beyond in every aspect. She was consistently responsive, highly professional, and demonstrated genuine care for our fur babies throughout their stay. Our dogs formed an instant bond with her and her children, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It's clear that Cathy has a natural talent for connecting with animals and meeting their needs. We wholeheartedly recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a reliable and exceptional sitter; her dedication and compassion truly set her apart.

Cathy provided excellent care to our pup. We could see as soon as we walked in the door that Cathy's home was set up well to care for dogs. Cathy sent us pictures of Mocha throughout the weekend, and took her to Bruce Pit for off leash play. When we picked her up, Mocha was happy to see us, but not anxious to leave. Cathy's daughter also provided lots of attention and affection to our dog. We are grateful for their care.
