Full Time Dog trainer

Pet care experience

I know how hard it can be to leave your fur baby, especially with someone you don't know. But rest assured when they stay here they'll be treated like my own, receiving all the attention and affection they deserve. I send daily updates and at least 1 photo or video / day, but frequently I send more. If you prefer more or less photos don't hesitate to say so. I am a very balanced dog trainer and use a reward based training system. I am currently an active member of Lilac City Dog Training Club and Spokane Dog Training Club. I compete Azlan in scent work, anr Aria in agility. I've taken care of neighbor's dogs since I was a little girl (over 18 years), and have been fostering dogs that need a little extra TLC through the humane society of Spokane for quite some time, and recently started fostering for SCRAPS as well. I've cared for puppies that were dropped off without mom before they were ready, dogs with special needs having to change splints and administer medication, as well as dogs that were ready to go into labor caring for both mom & puppies. More recently, I've been helping rehabilitate dogs with sever reactivity and recourse guarding so they can be safely adopted. I have experience with aggressive dogs, and am willing to watch them, but do require a meet and greet and occasionally an additional fee on a case by case basis (inquire for details). If needed I can watch dogs in heat but they will be kept in the smaller yard and will require an additional fee of $10/day I have the ability to keep dogs separate if needed while still allowing them to get all the exercise they need (I two fenced fields of a couple acres, and a smaller fenced grassy area about 30x50ft) I am a dog trainer & have up to 3 training dogs which are not allowed to interact with rover dogs.

Jedi always has a great time with Alyse. She sends lots of updates and he enjoys playing with her other dogs and on the property. She’s the only one we trust with our big boy!

Safety, trust & environment

Proof of vaccinatios (rabies & DHPP & KC) is required. Fecal float required within 3 months. I only accept 1, occasionally 2 clients at a time if both dogs have been watched before, I'm comfortablewith their behavior & owners are both comfortable for their dogs to interact with one another. I have a 5 foot fenced field that consists of a few acers and a full agility course so the pups have plenty of room to run and play without getting into trouble. In the summer they prefer to sniff, run, play, and swim in the doggy pool the majority of the day and are always ready to pass out by dark, so rest assure your pups will get more than enough exercise here. I do have a fenced field, and the field can have tics so I do recommend giving a preventative or wearing a collar (both can be found at walmart) during summer months. For feeding times I have a extra large gates and play pens and crates so each dog eats their own food and there are never any food aggression issues.

Information Alyse H. would like to know about your pet

For new clients I do require a new pet intake form that is posted on my profile. You may send answers to all the questions, print it off and bring it with you, or fill one out once you arrive. All dogs must be crate or playpen trained for bedtime (7-8 hours) and errands (aprx. 1 hr every few days). All dogs sleep in crates or 4x8ft-42" tall X-pens (whichever they prefer). I do require your own bedding (we do live in the country so I wouldn't recommend anything fancy). I do have the ability to kennel train your dog if needed, but require a phone consultation & may consist of an additional fee based on time spent. I have no breed or size preferences, however I REQUIRE MEET & GREETS FOR ALL DOGS My dog Azlan gets along with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. If they want to play he will play, he can play rough with big dogs or gentle with small dogs/puppies. If they don't like to play he will mind their space. I have no concern of him being aggressive toward another dog, I just want to make sure he is comfortable with any dog I choose to host. I also like to see how they behave with my unfixed female, I do not want to watch a dog that is going to be territorial over her. Aria is much more outgoing and loves to play non stop, but she is very well trained and will go lay in her place until she is released if told to do so. Zeus is out newest addition foster fail & a complete love bug.

A typical day

Upon arrival, I usually stay outside and play for 15-20 minutes so the dogs can become familiar. In the mornings we will wake up and go potty/play out side (weather permitting) for 15-20 min, then come inside and eat breakfast. Typically we feed twice a day, in the mornings around 9 and in the evenings around 730. COVID UPDATES Given the current state of the pandemic, we remain outside during meet & greets and as long as we maintain our distance, there is no need for you to wear a mask. I will give you a full explanation of meet and greet & drop off protocols prior to your arrival.
