Love animals more than most people!

Pet care experience

I love all animals but am mainly a dog person. Both of my dogs and all my kittys are rescues and I encourage people to adopt all the time. I have had special needs dogs and know how to administer medications including injections. Your pet will have my dogs to play with and will never be neglected. I also have a huge fenced in back yard. I work 10 uminutes from my home 3 days a week and go home every day for lunch and am home most of the weekend except for errands. I am available any day. My animals mostly stay in the house. I never leave my dogs outside when I am gone. Your furbaby will probably sleep in bed with the others as they are one big happy family.

I had a wonderful experience with Cathy this weekend! She took great care of my dog, Octa, who clearly enjoyed her stay. Cathy was very nice and I felt completely at ease knowing Octa was in such good hands.

Her dog had a blast with Miss Cathy - she's a 100% animal lover - who's great to see our dog playing with all the other dogs and spending time with the kittens!! Fantastic experience!!

Cathy is wonderful! You can tell she cares so much about animals and I felt entirely safe about her taking care of my dog over the weekend. She sent lots of pics and was very easy to communicate with. Will definitely book again!

Information Cathy R. would like to know about your pet

I prefer that your dog has been exposed to cats before and is not super reactive. If your cat has not been around dogs I will provide a quiet spot but my dogs will not bother the cat. Everybody's safety is my first concern.

A typical day

We play in the yard after work and then on the weekends. Sometimes we visit the dog park or the lake to run and chase things. Also if we have some howlers (and we usually do) then we sing a couple of songs sometimes.
