I'm the one with the treats!! :)

Pet care experience

Let me start by saying, I love animals. I have rescued, rehabilitated and rehomed many over the years. I will do whatever I can to keep them happy and healthy. :). I say this to let you know that I have been doing this for a while, and am very passionate about caring for animals- big and small. I started volunteering at local shelters and veterinary clinics when I was living in Franklin, Tn, 18 years ago. I currently help out with several local rescues and frequent the dog parks/events in Birmingham. I enjoy getting the pups out in the fresh air to play and get exercise! Something important to know- I have a knack for home made dog treats and cupcakes for the pups. I've learned that a way to a dogs heart is thru belly rubs and treats! ;) Nothing makes me happier than being around animals and showing them love. If you need references, just ask. Everyone who knows me; knows I will do anything for my fur-babies and yours. !Please note-! I just moved to Louisiana and am not currently able to offer boarding at my residence.

Catherine was outstanding! I coordinated a meet and greet a week prior to and drop-in visits to show her everything and get accustomed to my dog. All visits went well and was provided with a very detailed visit card. Highly recommend to anyone needing drop-in visits.

Information Catherine L. would like to know about your pet

I always like do meet and greets prior to your pup(s) staying with me. Please provide proof of vet records at this time. I like to cover any issues with daily activities, food allergies, and demeanor at the meet and greet. I have fostered for local bulldog, boxer, husky, and mixed breed rescues; and currently have a boxer, english bulldog, and Dane of my own. I have learned a great deal over the years about these breeds. I will care for special needs and senior pups, after all- they only get better with age! :). For ease of mind my vet always has someone on call for after hours needs. My sweet cat Noah is 16 and in renal failure; I've become a pro with administering subq fluids and pills. He doesn't have much time, so I keep him separate from the pups.

A typical day

I live in a neighborhood with lots of walkways for the really active dogs, have a wonderful dog park nearby, and I have a fenced in back yard for them to play on if they are staying with me. In the summer months, I provide a puppy pool and doggy ice cream! I have tons of toys and balls to fetch with, and can also make them gluten free dog treats to snack on!
