Pet care experience
Caring Dog Mom Ready to Spoil🐾🫶🏻
I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from a tiny 4 lb Chihuahua to my current 70 lb Goldendoodle who lives with me. This range has taught me how to handle different temperaments, needs, and energy levels, whether it’s playful puppies, active adult dogs, or gentle senior pups. I usually take dogs out every 4 hours and make sure they get plenty of exercise each day, whether that’s a dog park visit, a nice walk, or a hike🐾. I also train my own dog and have traveled with him to many places, including Utah, California, Seattle, and even international trips like China—so I’m very comfortable managing dogs in new environments.🥰 I’m new to Rover, but I already have plenty of dog-sitting experience and have always received 100% positive feedback. I truly love every dog I meet and always treat them with patience, care, and attention.🐾❤️

Cathy was amazing with Milo! She took such great care of him and was always taking him out to different places and making sure he had plenty of fun and attention. Milo absolutely loves her, and I could tell he was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. I felt completely at ease knowing he was so well taken care of. Would absolutely recommend Cathy and would love to have her watch Milo again!

Cathy was so sweet and easy to communicate with, and she took great care of Olive! It gave us such peace of mind knowing Olive was in good hands. She was attentive to Olive’s schedule and feedings, and we would definitely book with Cathy again and highly recommend her!
Cathy did a phenomenal job watching Vida. She was always responsive and accommodating. She took excellent care of Vida, and I would absolutely use her again.
What a great rover! If you're coming to Jersey City especially with an RV and staying at the Liberty Marina RV resort I would use this rover. Very attentive showed up on time my dog was very happy and I could tell he had gotten very good walks.

Schedule
I’m a full-time Rover sitter, so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention and care they need. I’m flexible with my schedule and can provide day care, drop-ins, dog sitting, and other services based on what works best for you and your pup.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I take care of every pup like they’re my own. I usually take dogs out about every 4 hours and make sure they get plenty of playtime and cuddles. I live in a nice apartment building with a dog park and a public park right downstairs, so it’s super convenient for potty breaks, walks, and playtime. At my place, dogs are welcome on the couch and even the bed if their owners are okay with it—I want them to feel right at home. Sometimes I make simple homemade treats or little enrichment toys, and I’m happy to share them with your pup if you approve. My goal is always the same: keep your dog happy, comfy, and loved.
Pets
A typical day
I start by observing each dog to understand their energy level and preferences so I can tailor activities to them. I love dressing pups up for holidays and taking cute photos, especially for Christmas and Halloween. Every day, we make sure to get outside—whether it’s visiting a nearby dog park or walking by the river so they can explore new smells and the world around them. I also enjoy taking dogs on nearby hikes when appropriate. Please let me know if your pup has any favorite places or activities, and I’ll do my best to accommodate them.
