As written above, I am a professional artist and therefore self employed. My schedule varies from project to project and I am very flexible with my time. Between the gym, the coffee shop and the studio, I can swing by your place for a long walk with the dog or sit with your cat for a few hours while I answer emails. Plus, I enjoy cycling all year round so it's a treat to get to bike to your house and back to give belly scratches.

Sicherheit, Vertrauen & Umgebung
My living situation doesn't allow me to take care of pets at home for now. I am very mobile in the city and will happily visit your neck of the woods. I understand it can be peculiar to welcome a stranger into your home to care for your precious companion. I offer a meet and greet free of charge in a neutral location (park, coffee shop, library) beforehand. You can then choose to go forward with my services or not with no strings attached. I also offer house sitting services for longer periods of time.
Informationen, die Catherine P. gerne über dein Haustier wissen möchte
I love to know about your habits with your dog. The best is to adhere to those to give them a sense of consistency even if their humans are not around. What do you usually do to exercise? When do they eat? Do you have special commands that you'd like them to practice? Regarding their behavior, it's important for me to know how your pup typically reacts to strangers and to other dogs on walks so I can adapt my own behavior. Any other information about their personality, their reactions or their triggers is greatly appreciated. Help me get to know them!

Of course, I would never diverge from your morning routine if you have one set already, but here's what I would do with my own dog. We start the day with a short walk around the block to process the essentials. Then it's back home for breakfast. We use the morning kibble for mental stimulation : practice commands, hide the food around the house, use a textured matt, etc. After first meal, it's time for the first nap of the day. For the dog, that is! I will be checking my emails and working on my computer. My pup has a few toys to chew on, but he's calm inside the house. In the afternoon, we go on a long walk around the neighbourhood. He get's to sniff around all he likes and gets treats when he walks besides me. When we get back home, if he still has energy, I like to hide treats in a towel or an old blanket for him to find. For the second meal of the day, we repeat our morning ritual (commands and enrichment). There will be at least two other potty walks around the block before we go to sleep. In between, my dog and I often cuddle on the couch, but if yours isn't allowed or doesn't like too much affection, they will be comfy in their bed or crate.

The short and sweet dog walker
Erfahrung in der Haustierbetreuung
I'm a short and sweet professional artist with lots of time, flexibility and affection for pets. I adopted my first ever dog, a boston terrier, when I was 20 years old with my sister (we were sharing an apartment at the time). We had no idea what we were getting into and worked hard to train him and give hime everything he needed to be healthy and happy. Of course, we made mistakes along the way, but he never lacked love and attention. Years later, even after my sister moved out with our pup's full custody, I was the only one who had authority on him when he was throwing a tantrum and barking at the neighbours. Consistency and firm commands were my best allies. In the following years, many of my friends and family trusted me with their pets when going away on holidays. I've immensely enjoyed those staycations, taking care of furry friends in their own space and tending to their needs. I am now moving to a more professional setting and working on establishing the same trust with my new clients.

Catherine walked Zelda for the first time today, and I had a great experience. She kindly took the time to do a meet and greet with us earlier this week, which immediately made me feel comfortable having her care for Zelda. She was very kind, sweet, and patient with Zelda, and kept me updated with pictures and information during their time together. It was clear Zelda was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Catherine to others looking for a caring and reliable walker!
[FR] Catherine a gardé Ernest, mon berger allemand, et tout s’est passé à merveille. Ernest peut impressionner certaines personnes, mais Catherine a su le gérer avec assurance et calme. Elle est très active et sportive, ce qui la rend parfaite pour les chiens qui ont besoin de bouger. Elle est expérimentée, extrêmement organisée, fiable et énergique. On sent qu’elle est vraiment attentive au bien-être des animaux et profondément humaine. Je lui ferais confiance sans hésiter. [EN] Catherine took care of Ernest, my German Shepherd, and everything went perfectly. Ernest can be intimidating to some people, but Catherine handled him with confidence and calm. She is very active and athletic, making her perfect for dogs who need plenty of exercise. She is experienced, highly organized, reliable, and energetic. You can truly feel how much she cares about animals and their well-being. I would trust her without hesitation.
Ma soeur Catherine a gardé mon Boston Terrible pendant des années! Elle offrait toujours une maison d'accueil adaptée aux besoins de mon chien, j'étais toujours complètement à l'aise de lui laisser parce que je pouvais compter sur elle pour le traiter comme s'il était en camp de vacances! Cath est super fiable, super flexible et attentionnée et elle sait vraiment être à l'écoute des besoins des animaux de compagnie. Elle est super dynamique quand c'est le temps de sortir et jouer, son horaire est malléable et elle est très outdoorsy. Elle a une personnalité très ancrée et apaisante; je trouve que c'est essentiel pour rendre un chien confortable avec un.e inconnu.e. Mon chien avait plein de petits caprices et besoins spéciaux, et Catherine a toujours été super accommodante. Même chose avec les autres chiens et chats qu'elle a gardé au fil des années. Je recommande chaudement de lui faire confiance avec vos animaux, elle est responsable et pleine de tendresse.
Catherine est une amie de longue date et je peux vous assurer qu’elle sera une gardienne deluxe pour vos animaux! Elle-même ancienne dog mom, elle est douce, bienveillante et adore passer du temps en compagnie des petites et grosses bêtes poilues. À plusieurs reprises, elle a gardé mon chat Cochon pour moi. Je savais que je pouvais partir avec l’esprit tranquille parce que c’est elle qui s’en occupait. Et à chaque retour, Cochon était calme, heureux et pas le moindrement stressé. Sérieux, c’est elle que vous voulez avoir comme gardienne!
