Catskill Mountain Canine

Catskill Mountain Canine Relationship-based Dog Training and Pet Care with 8+ years of experience training and caring for pets and working dogs.

As a current veterinary technician student my experiences with dogs (and other animals) also include, having pets of my own, working in local shelters, completing disaster search and rescue, and emergency disaster care. Most recently I traveled to the affected areas of hurricane Harvey where I rescued and cared for displaced animals. In addition, I've worked with all ages of animals as well as tho

se with severe behavioral and health issues both in my home and in shelter situations. If you want someone who is comfortable around all types of dogs as well as confident in their abilities, I believe I am the handler for you. My main goal is the safety and happiness of your pets and with my years of experience, I believe that I can provide that to your pets as well as provide peace of mind to you. I have animal first aid experience and have administered fluids, topical, oral and injectable treatments. I also have an extensive awareness of the foods that are dangerous to dogs and cats. My schedule is flexible as I work both inside and outside of the house with various clients every week. With of my wide range of experiences and flexible schedule I will try my best to accommodate your schedule and special pet requests. It is my policy to reserve the right to adjust prices on lesser valued services (Walking and Drop-Ins) if they are 15 minutes or more from my home. If the service location is approximately 20 minutes away from my home, I may consider it outside of my service area, especially in regards to locations on the east bank of the Hudson River. You may also like to know that the rate listed for house sitting includes, breakfast, dinner, and my overnight time. While I strive to spend as much time as possible in your home during a sitting, this is the maximum amount of time that I can guarantee during my business periods without additional service fees. In regards to drop-ins and walks, I offer longer walk and drop-in requests for an additional fee. Please contact me regarding rates for your extended visits.

You don’t need to constantly correct your dog to get results.

A lot of progress comes from clarity and structure—not just stopping behavior.
If a dog understands what to do and has practiced it enough, things get a lot smoother.

Do you feel like your dog understands what you’re asking most of the time?

Leaving your pet in someone else’s care is a big act of trust. 🤎

"Even on a short drop-in visit, Cipriana always sends a pic and short text update to let us know how our little guy Ozzie is doing. We would recommend Catskill Mountain Canine to anyone looking for training, dog walking or in-home visits!” — Jeff

We know how much your pets mean to you, and we never take the responsibility of caring for them lightly.

Thank you to every client who trusts us with their dogs, cats, and other companion animals. We’re grateful for the opportunity to care for them, get to know their individual personalities, and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Why does my dog listen perfectly at home but completely forget everything the second we go outside?”

This is one of the most common questions we hear, and usually, your dog hasn’t actually forgotten their training.

Dogs don’t automatically generalize a behavior from one environment to another. A behavior that is easy to perform in your quiet living room can become much harder when you add squirrels, people, other dogs, traffic, smells, and all the other distractions that come with being outside.

Think of training like building a staircase. Start with easy environments and gradually increase the difficulty as your dog becomes more successful.

If your dog struggles outside, don’t assume they’re being stubborn. They may simply need more practice in progressively distracting environments. 🐾

Does your dog have a “selective hearing” problem once you leave the house? 😂

A great local small business and opportunity for someone trying to get into the animal industry!

Working with animals opportunity: MUST LOVE DOGS 🐶❣️
Small woman-owned home business looking for a part time Animal Care Professional to help me with the morning animal routine. I am looking for someone that could help 3 - 4 mornings a week for 5 hrs each day typically 8 am to 1 pm that can be available to help during the entire 8 weeks from July 4th to Labor Day and then with more flexibility possibly during fall until the end of the year particularly needing availability weeks/days surrounding other major holidays as those are my busiest times. The rest of the year things flucuate and there will be times that help is not needed so personal time away can be easily scheduled and I can arrange other coverage if needed. 18 yrs old minimum. Helping mostly with dogs, sometimes cats and other small pets and some of our own rescued animals as well. Help is needed mostly for their needs during breakfast feedings plus cleaning, laundry and general maintenance help in the animal enclosures and taking out some dogs individually to the adjoining fenced yards. Also when needed helping with dog bathing, brushing and nail trims. Must be comfortable with public interactions of people coming and going. Any prior dog work, kennel, shelter or veterinary help experience a plus. Perfect for someone that enjoy dogs wanting to play, jump and be affectionate with you which may includes some licking your face! Must not be scared or nervous with any sizes or breeds. Must not be scared or nervous to handle cats.
Looking for someone that has their own transportation and can be consistently reliable and won't mind to be reasonably responsive to texts/calls after hours for any questions I may have for you that arise about any animals you cared for during while you were here. I pay $16 hr to start. More details will be provided upon serious interest. Send inquiries in messenger for application or call 845-246-9341 and ask for Allison to set up a time to come in person.

"How do I potty train my puppy?" This is probably one of the #1 questions we're asked and the answer is actually pretty simple.

Create a routine, reward success, prevent mistakes. Take your puppy outside immediately after they wake up, after coming out of the crate, after every meal, after playtime, before bedtime, etc.

One of the biggest mistakes we see? Giving puppies too much freedom too soon.

Until your puppy has consistently earned your trust, use baby gates, crates, and close supervision to set them up for success. Good management today creates good habits for tomorrow.
