Piedmont Avenue, CA
your pet’s interim pack leader
Pet care experience
Looking for socialization for your pet, but finding dog parks to be too intimidating for your furry friend? Spend some time with my rat terrier mix Buffy in a relaxed and safe environment. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and board their pets while maintaining a structure in their daily routine. With the support of Buffy, I’ll stand in as your pet’s pack leader to help them feel comfortable and safe.
Reviews
Catherine did a great job watching Moose. She took him for walks and sent photo updates throughout the stay. I would definitely reach out to her again in the future!
Catherine was an amazing host!! Loved the photo updates and great communication and flexibility with pick up/drop off. Would definitely recommend her!!
Catherine was a wonderful host for our dog Rascal this past week while we were on vacation. Her dog Buffy was a sweet companion and she took great care of our pooch. She is a very competent, calm care giver and helped Rascal adjust to a new home and routine with compassion.
Communicative, friendly, and my dog Franklin enjoyed his stay here
About Catherine G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a condo building with access to an elevator. I will be able to provide frequent walks every 4 hours and there is a dog potty available for use on my enclosed patio. I have extra dog supplies available (with two pet stores located nearby in a pinch). I will be available to monitor play time and can easily crate my dog as needed, depending on their rapport.
Home
Information Catherine G. would like to know about your pet
I want to make sure it’s a good fit, so let’s coordinate a brief in-person meet and greet to make sure our dogs get along. Please share information on meal schedules, exercise routine, temperament, typical sleeping arrangements, and comfortability in a car. If your dog has food allergies, needs special accommodations, and/or has behavioral quirks I should know about, please share these as well.
A typical day
There are many sights, smells, and dog-friendly places in my neighborhood. We will take walks every 4 hours. Depending on what best suits your furry friend, we can take morning jogs, neighborhood strolls, visit the dog park, hike at a local park, or people watch at a nearby restaurant.
