About Catie W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a lot of applicable experience and training that allows me to take excellent care of your pets! Additionally, I have a natural safety mindset geared at protecting both my human and my pet clients. I’ve managed countless medical emergencies, lost pets, and safely broken up conflict in between pets as a part of my profession. I’m a very responsible and detail-oriented person overall.
Information Catie W. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your pet has any special needs, what their routine is, what their exercise needs are, and any behavioral challenges they have. I do not expect pets to be perfect, so please don’t hesitate to share the struggles with me. If you have multiple pets, I would like to know how they get along with one another and if there’s any management I need to do to minimize conflict between them.
A typical day
I am a bit of a homebody so I love to relax at home, watch tv/movies, play board/card games, and do crafts. I enjoy playing with pets and including them in my daily activities as much as I can. I love an excuse to get out of the house, so I’m always down for a little walk, trip to the dog park or to a Sniffspot. I also really enjoy a dog that likes to swim!

Patient & Experienced Pet Care
Pet care experience
Hi pet parents! 🙂I have been working in the animal welfare and veterinary industry for 8+ years. The bulk of my experience is in animal sheltering, but I’ve also worked in wildlife rehabilitation, doggy daycare, and in a veterinary clinic. I have experience with a variety of medical care, kitten and puppy care, pet first aid, and managing pet emergencies. I’ve also managed several cases of lost foster pets through my most recent professional role and returned the pets to safety. I have a lot of patience for pets experiencing stress, and enjoy utilizing my skill set to try to comfort them. Additionally, I have experience working with dogs and cats with behavioral challenges, and am happy to welcome those pets into my care on a case-by-case basis. I do not, however, utilize aversive tools for behavior modification and I’m not comfortable using them on client’s pets. This includes prong/ pinch collars, shock/bark collars, squirt bottles, and any other training tool that modifies behavior based off of punishment. I’ll be happy to share more about what I prefer using if you’re interested!

Reviews
Catie provides great info/updates about my senior doggo after a drop in visit! She's able to give him meds if needed and seems to understand my older guys needs.
Catie is absolutely wonderful and we will absolutely be booking with her again. She has a ton of experience with many types of dogs and you can tell immediately. She was so gentle with our dog that is usually skiddish and so understanding of our very demanding old man English bulldog. She kept our house so clean and went above and beyond everything. She was so understanding of me too and all my worries about leaving the dogs and intricacies that I prefer for them. She is kind and detail oriented and very communicative and sent pictures and messages everyday which put me at so much ease. Thank you Catie!!
Such a wonderful experience working with Catie. She was flexible in the process of setting up meet and greet and very helpful explaining the process as we were new to Rover. She took very good care of our Pepper, gave great updates along with pictures and she left the house absolutely spotless. I would definitely have Catie watch our pets again any day!
Catie was wonderful. She demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, ensuring the well-being of the animals throughout her stay. I received regular updates, which eased my mind while I was away. I wholeheartedly recommend Catie to anyone seeking a dependable and caring pet sitter.
