Safety, trust & environment

In the clients home I make sure all animals are well cared for and given plenty of love and attention. I will bathe them if requested and can ensure happy animals and a clean home to return to if it's overnight care. While I am walking or doing drop in visits I will make sure any messes made while they're alone are cleaned up and I can spend as much time as needed with your furbabies :)

Information Cathy J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has specific medications or treatments that need be done on a schedule. I also like to know about the pets specific likes and dislikes when it comes to interaction with people, and what their personality is like.

A typical day

I normally take any dogs I'm not walking at their homes to a dog park in my area, and love to play games and run along with them as they play.

I've been working with animals since I was 19 and have been doing general pet/child care since I was 15. I love animals and enjoy any time I get to spend with furbabies of any sort.

Cathy is great with the pups and this for this visit was a life saver for us. My husband was able to have her trouble shooting the power outlets in the garage to get the garage door opener working again and restore power to the refrigerator and freezer! Go greatly appreciated!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
