Some of you may already know me, but for those who don’t, I’m Catherine Tessier-Gaussiran, Co-Founder of ATD Clubhouse, and a big-time dog lover who believes dog care should be accessible to everyone. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and my love for them, and animals in general, has only grown over the years. Having a loyal companion there to love and support you is unmatched. If they bring us so much joy, why not try and do the same for them?

With many years of experience in the animal industry, I have decided to expand my knowledge and create a one-stop shop for all of your dog’s needs. Working with dogs and animals has always been one of my biggest dreams. Growing up with dogs and having parents who were huge animal lovers, I was taught from a young age to love and respect every creature we share this beautiful world with.

After college, uncertain of the path I wanted to take, I started volunteering at a dog daycare in Montreal. I quickly realized I had found my passion—I knew I was right where I was supposed to be, helping care for dogs. I went on to work for this company for over three years and then started my own at-home boarding business with clients I had the pleasure of meeting throughout my time there. I have continued to do this for over seven years and have a huge doggo family that I care for tremendously.

I met my partner Salomon a little over five years ago. We quickly connected over our love for dogs and everything in between. At the time, he had a career in animal retail as a sales executive, but we both knew we wanted to branch out and create our own dream. This is where All The Dogs Clubhouse comes from.

We are passionate about growing and expanding the business we’ve fallen in love with. We hope to offer a space with every necessity for your dog’s life, helping you, our clients, feel at ease. We are making dog care more accessible in Montreal and, hopefully, in other areas of the world soon enough—a one-stop shop for everything DOGS.

Growing this business is the first step toward a much bigger picture. We hope to gain access to further opportunities and resources to branch out, educate people, and help dogs in need all over the world.

With your support, our dream can become a reality. Together, we can create real change and bring attention to a matter that is often dismissed. Every dog deserves a loving home, and our mission is to make this happen. Come support what we believe in by entrusting us to care for your fur babies. None of this would be possible without you.
