Certified Petco Dog Trainer for 2yr
Pet care experience
Dogs are my life! I have been training dogs at Petco for 2 years in November and I love working with dogs and their owners every day. It is my passion in life to provide love, care and mental and physical stimulation to dogs of all ages and sizes. I would love to take your dog for a walk, a hike, to get a pup cup or to play at the park. I love all breeds and sizes, and through my career at Petco have already worked with a lot of them! I see a great need for extra exercise and stimulation with a lot of the pups I train, and I’m ready to start helping their parents achieve a great balance between exercise, play and training! Please let me love your dog today!!
Reviews
Catherine is absolutely wonderful with dogs! I've known Cadie for a little over a year now and I've never met someone more passionate about animals. Every time I bring my 10 week old puppy Scarlett to her, Scarlett lights up and her tails goes a thousand miles a minute. Scarlett is a shy puppy and Cadie has really helped her come out of her shell. We are not afraid of shots or nail clippes anymore thanks to her! She also had great solutions on how to get Scarlett to stop pulling and chewing on the leash! Scarlett is usually a huge momma's girl but resists coming home after she's spent time with Cadie. I would highly recommend Cadie if you're looking for someone you can trust to go above and beyond for your fur babies.
I have the distinct pleasure of directly supervising Catherine in her professional duties as a Senior Dog Trainer. Not only is Catherine one of the most passionate, reliable, and caring people I know, she is also one of the sweetest! She is truly someone you can trust to bring real-world experience and a treasure trove of knowledge right to your doorstep. Catherine is a safety-focused professional who builds relationships and trust with pets and pet parents every single day. Along with her duties as a dog trainer, Catherine also spends her time mentoring new dog trainers and guiding them in their careers. She is of the highest integrity, and I feel confident in recommending her services.
Cadie is so wonderful with my 3 dogs, they love her walks and time she babysits them! We all love her!! I would highly recommend her to any person looking for a dog sitter, walker, or even trainer!
