Dog's most loyal friend
Pet care experience
My dog at home in LA is named Max and we adopted him when he was 2 years old so there were some training gaps that we had to fill. Max earned a certificate for dog obedience from Petco and there we learned how to use treats as positive reinforcements to reward good behaviors, like how to sit, lay down, walk without barking at someone. We also learned that punishment is never a good idea because dogs don't learn from being intimidated. I also want to mention that last summer I picked up a stray, cleaned him, fed him, and found a forever home for him, who happens to be my neighbor so I check on hime every chance I get to go home. I think that every dog deserves to be nourished with food, shelter, and love.
Reviews
Celeste is really great with Bella! When they first met Celeste was quick to slowly introduce herself to Bella by letting Bella sniff her hand and then giving her a treat! She sends me photos when they're out walking and it relaxes me. Overall Celeste is great with dogs and really laid back.
I have a very large, very high-energy black lab that could honestly give Marly (of Marly and Me) a run for his money. Celeste handles the energy of Moosehead like a champ and I can tell she genuinely loves working with dogs. She's always on time, very professional, and great with animals. Highly recommend!
Celeste, in addition to being a wonderful, responsible person, is absolutely great with dogs. I have two small Jack Russell Terriers who have LOTS of energy and can be a lot to handle at times. Celeste gives them the attention and the exercise they need and I can always trust that they are well taken care of when I leave them with her. Celeste has been a joy to work with and I would recommend her to anyone!
A friend of a friend recommended Celeste when I needed last-minute check-ins for my chihuahua during a trip out of the country. Celeste was patient and gentle with my nervous chihuahua (who uh, may have some attachment issues) and sent me frequent updates to let me know how she was doing - serious peace of mind! and I'm seriously impressed that she got through to my little monster! You'll be lucky to have someone like Celeste caring for your pet. thank you, Celeste!

Information Celeste D. would like to know about your pet
I would want to know if the dog has any fears or issues that I would need to be aware of, just so it's not a surprise when I walk him.
A typical day
I would love to take your furry friend to the park so depending on where you live, if you're from Richmond I would take him/her to Golden Gate Park, if you live in the Mission, we would go to Dolores Park.
