Pet care experience

I’ve had my dog for 13 years now and though she’s older, she’s like a puppy so I will make your dog feel like it’s young self again! I want more dogs but can’t therefore I’d love to spend time with yours & treat him like my own of course! I will walk/run with them & totally let them watch The Office! jk but I’m flexible with availability and easy with cancellation. I have a private backyard and tons of yummy treats plus I’m close to a bigger park if they would like to run in a bigger yard. Overall, this job would be awesome & I’ll take good care of your fur baby. && I don’t have any children so no fear in that.

Cathy is fantastic! Our Chihuahua can be a little shy but he seems to have warmed up to her no problem. I feel great knowing I can travel for work and our dog has Cathy to help.

Cathy was amazing with Stanley! Despite a last-minute booking, she showed up on time and took Stanley on a lengthy walk. Highly recommend!

Cathy is amazing and I would trust her watching my dog without any doubts or reservations. She was on time and kind and excellent with our pup and the rest of our family.

Cathy is the best! I have booked her several times, and I can always count on her to take care of my pup. She always shows love and caring towards my dog.
