Your dog’s second best friend!!

Pet care experience

I’m a long time dog owner with 40+ years of living and having fun with dogs. I’m an avid hiker and my dog has accompanied me on every hike. I love any size dog. No dog is to too small or too large. I have experience with puppies up to senior dogs and pets (including cats) where I had to administer oral medications and injections. I’m available in the morning through late afternoon, rain or shine, for any pup that needs a friend while their best friend (you!) are away. If your dog loves walks, so do I!! If your dog likes to be a couch potato, so do I!! Whatever activity they prefer, I can accommodate. Your dog is guaranteed to have a good time with me!!

It’s always a pleasure to have Cathie walk our dog. She is so great with our dog and cat! We would recommend her to anyone!

Cathie was terrific with my deaf dog, Lu! Cathie was also very accommodating and helped me out of a difficult situation by accepting Lu as a new client and walking her on the same day I made the request.

Information Cathie D. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog a puppy, adult or senior? What's their energy level? Do they like walks? Or do they prefer the comfort of their own backyard? How are they on a leash when walked? Is it a taught leash or loose?

A typical day

Sidewalks or dirt trails, no path is curtailed! Throw a ball or catch a frisbee, doesn't matter to me!! But my favorite is giving leg twitching belly rubs!! Walks will always be near your home and around your neighborhood. All services outside of my preferred service area (up to 5 miles) will incur a $7.00 additional fee. I do not provide service for anything further than 5 miles outside of service area. *Please refer to Rover's holiday rate calendar for more info about specific holidays and holiday rates
