Patient & Loving Care for Dogs

I’ve owned dogs for the past 20 years and they’ve always been my best friends. I’m not a very athletic person and don’t participate in sports, but I do love walking, which is even more enjoyable with a dog by my side. In the past I have volunteered as a dog walker for a dog rescue in the South Bay, which introduced me to a variety of breeds and canine personalities. I have a senior Labrador-mix from Asia that was previously homeless and rescued from the streets. [Gypsy passed away in 2023.] My goal is to be as careful and caring with my clients’ pets as I am with mine. Dogs are as unique as people; they have different needs, personalities, and preferences. I am happy to tailor each booking to the dog and pet parent’s needs. Feel free to contact me with any questions!

Safety, trust & environment

I know the importance of security and will double check that leashes are secure, doors are closed and locked, and hazards are avoided during a walk.

Best dog walker in RPV. Great with our senior dog who is partially blind and deaf. Very gentle and sensitive towards our dog’s needs. Would definitely book again.

Catherine was GREAT with our 2 energetic young dogs. This was the very first drop-in for our year-old pup (the 3-year-old has had visits before), and it was also the longest we’d ever left them alone. When we came home from our weekend day out, they were both happy, tired, and completely calm—as if we’d just been gone for 30 minutes instead of most of the day. (They were also clearly having a great time in all the pictures she sent.) We’d done a meet-and-greet with Catherine before the official visit day, and were impressed with her calm, cheerfulness, and steadiness with our dogs. They can be a lot (Border Collie and English Springer Spaniel), and she handled them perfectly. We will definitely be booking her again!

Schedule

I work part-time with a very flexible schedule so local bookings (Rolling Hills Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes & Palos Verdes Estates drop-ins and walks) are easy to schedule.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Catherine can host up to 10 drop-ins per day
Please let me know a little bit about your dog’s preferences, fears, and favorite things. Information about your dog’s habits and normal routine is also helpful.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
