Dog person who has a cat

Pet care experience

i like to think I have big dog energy. My family has always had dogs since before I can remember, and I feel at ease with any type of pet. My family and neighbors would rely on me to check in on their animals when they where out of town. I have currently have two cats of my own but would love to regularly see some doggos to truly make my life complete.

My parents adopted a rescue dog in the summer of 2020. His name is Rizzo - he's a Pit Bull / Boxer mix, so he's the sweetest dog you'll ever meet but like his breed he is notoriously territorial. So while he gets along great with myself, my parents, and my siblings, he hasn't quite gotten used to extended family yet. That is, until he met Cat. The day she met Rizzo was the most calm my family had ever seen him. No barking, no jumping, he just seemed to want to run around and play with her. Nothing sums up Cat's amazing dog energy like that day. She's the type of person that every dog wants to be friends with.

Cat has looked after my animals for about 2 years now. She feeds and walks them and even keeps the apartment tidy when I am out of town.

Cat is one of the very few people I would trust my two pups with! She is not only responsible and trustworthy but she's super loving and caring to any fur friend that comes her way. Cat has a lot of experience looking after dogs and makes sure that they have the best time when she's with them!

Catherine took great care of both of our Westies -- she walked them daily, made sure they were fed and babysat them when we were on vacation. She loves dogs and also loves the outdoors, and is super responsible ... if she says she is going to do something, she does it. I would highly recommend her as a dog walker!

Safety, trust & environment

To ensure your pet’s safety, I would follow all leashing and collar protocols, along with respecting any of the guidelines for entering your home. While I’m with your pet, I’ll treat them as my own and make sure they are safe and happy!

Information Cat M. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with dogs of all sizes and just would want to know any special accommodations your pooch requires, what treats they are allowed to have, and what behaviors you want to encourage/discourage.

A typical day

I love to play and cuddle as much as possible when I’m with animals! Everything from fetch and tussling with chews toys with the more active dogs to take a slow scenic stroll with a senior cutie is right up my alley. Ballston has so many dogs, that walking through the main center of businesses is always fun, but there are also some nice parks to play in, like Oakland Park by the Virginia Square metro, where there are lots of dog meetups.

I currently work full-time from home, but am very light on meetings and make my own schedule most days. I’m super flexible with time and with a day’s notice I would be able to schedule some time in my day to care for your pet.
