About: At Central Canines, pet care is more than just a service — it’s a personalized experience built on trust, structure, and love. With years of hands-on experience in both dog training and boarding, I go beyond basic care to truly understand each dog’s personality, needs, and behavior. Whether your pup is staying overnight or working on new skills, they’ll receive consistent structure, positive reinforcement, and one-on-one attention in a safe, home-style environment — not a crowded kennel. What sets me apart is the calm, confident energy I bring to every interaction, my commitment to helping dogs thrive both mentally and physically, and the genuine relationships I build with each pet and their family. Here, every dog is treated like one of my own. Pet care is my full-time lifestyle — not just part of my day. As a professional dog trainer and full-time pet care provider, my entire routine is centered around the well-being, structure, and happiness of the dogs in my care. From early morning potty breaks and structured play sessions to training lessons and calm evening wind-downs, every part of my day is designed to meet each pup’s individual needs. This isn’t a side job or a hobby — it’s my passion and profession. Your dog becomes part of my daily rhythm, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. In my home, pets are cared for with a structured, safe, and loving routine that supports both their physical and mental well-being. Dogs enjoy plenty of outdoor time in a secure yard, personalized enrichment activities, and rest periods throughout the day to prevent overstimulation. For those enrolled in training, I incorporate clear, consistent guidance into daily routines to reinforce good behavior in real-life situations. Each pup gets one-on-one attention, daily check-ins, and plenty of love — all while maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Cleanliness, safety, and respect for each dog’s individual needs are always my top priorities.
