I OFFER PICK UP AND DROP OFF FOR ALL BOARDING! I will take your pup from the city to the beach! I grew up with Labrador retrievers and Rhodesian Ridgebacks, always two at a time. I worked at a doggy daycare, as a vet tech in an emergency clinic, and as a dog behaviorist. I have two dogs of my own, Luna and Otis, and currently work from home. I am blessed with a flexible schedule and perfect dogs who deserve multiple walks a day in order to sniff all the sniffs. We love guests! I have been boarding dogs for 6 years, 4 of which I spent living and studying in Australia. I am happy to do dog training/ behavior shaping, nail trims, basic commands, and socialization, just message me and I am always happy to help! I offer free pick up and delivery within 20 miles for boarding requests! I work from home so my dogs are rarely left alone. If we are going out without them, my dogs are not crated and we trust them to remain in the apartment. However, I will accommodate each dogs unique needs, crated or uncrated! I have a fully fenced yard at my home and two dogs of my own, so you’re pup will never be alone. I can do nail trims and offer basic upkeep. I can administer medications and treat illness. Happy to use my dog training experience to work on any particular issues or behavioral patterns. I will treat your pet as they are my own. We do not deserve dogs!!!
Reviews
Catherine L. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Catherine was fantastic! Super flexible in making the most of the hour when dealing with my stubborn dog. Lucy clearly loved all of her walks and we would definitely book again!
Catherine provided an excellent stay for my pup and provided me with peace of mind for a first time stay. She was very responsive, knowledgeable, great with providing updates and most importantly my dog had a great time! She’s going to be our permanent dog sitter now which is best praise I can give.
AMAZING!!

Information Catherine L. would like to know about your pet
Otis has a bad back and can’t do tall staircases (going down is the problem, he’ll need to be carried). Luna has no behavioral issues. Otis can be snappy at other dogs but is all bark no bite and warms up almost instantly. Just like otis, I know every dog has their own quirks! Please do let me know any behavioral or personality traits that your dog has so that I can be the best sitter possible :)
A typical day
I am a big believer in the power of sunshine. I spend as much time outside as I can. With my dogs, we go on frequent walks throughout the day, giving them time to sniff and explore all the smells in the city. I love the beach and my dogs adore running around on the sand and in the water. I live right by the common in Boston and there are so many pups to meet and play with. Working from home, I typically take 3 shorter walks during the day, and we do 2 long ones after breakfast and after dinner.
