I will love and pamper your pet

Pet care experience

I'm a very simple down to earth country gal who loves doing for others and loves animals. I pet/child sit for several physicians and co-workers where I work; Sometimes for up to two weeks or longer, usually in their homes. I stay fairly busy with just them, so I certainly can provide references! I prefer to keep pets at their home, as I think it causes less anxiety for them. I will take plenty of pictures and text them to you if you would like that. In addition in taking care of your fur babies, I will keep your house as clean as it was when you left. I clean up after myself, and will wash the sheets and towels that I use during the stay and remake the bed. Your pet will be loved on and cared for, and if they are allowed to sleep in bed, that's where they will be! FYI: If you have big dogs and they pull when walking, I'm not sure I would be able to handle them. I can't walk fast anymore due to ankle injury, so if your pet is large and pulls, I wouldn't be able to walk them. Whatever your rules, is what I would do. Thank you for taking the time to check me out! Hope to meet you and your babies soon!

Cathy is the best! She watched my dog overnight while I was on a work trip. She kept in constant touch, sent pics! When my flight home was delayed 2 1/2 hours, she was able to stay until I landed. I am so happy to have found a great sitter!

Cathy stayed the weekend with our two dogs and they were good for her. She left my house cleaner than when she came and communicated with me every day. I will definitely use her again.

She is amazing. I was so happy to get home and know my fur babies were loved on and taken care of like they were her own family. I would recommend Cathy to anyone and would trust this beautiful soul with my life. PS-she checks in as much as you'd like and she sends pics!!

We've known Cathy for a number of years. She has been entrusted with the care of our kids AND our pets! She is a trustworthy, reliable & loving caregiver for our sweet dog, Tucker, when we go out of town. She treats him like he's her own & truly enjoys being with him. Tucker loves her too!

I will love and play with your babies, Take pictures to share with you. If they're used to sleeping with owners, than that's where they would be with me! Out to potty as needed.

Information Cathy L. would like to know about your pet

No Breed preferences, and I would need to know if the dog will bite. As I said before, if you have a big dog and he pulls during walks, I will not be able to walk him. ALSO, I LOVE CATS, BUT....I can usually get by with 1 or sometimes 2 cats in house, but anymore than that really messes with my eyes and sinuses.

A typical day

I enjoy snuggling with pets, playing and going for walks. I usally let the dog sleep where ever they are comfortable, whether it be with me, on the floor beside the bed or in another room.
