Certified Dog Trainer (VSA-CDT)

Pet care experience

Thank you for visiting my profile! I currently have a Pitbull/Hound rescue that has gone through the AKC’s Canine Good Citizen program as well as a Rottweiler. Being around large breeds all of my life inspired me to become a certified force-free dog trainer via the Victoria Stilwell Academy, as well as an American Kennel Club CGC Approved Evaluator. I’ve loved dogs ever since I was little and have a flexible freelance job so I can dedicate my full attention to your pups during our time together. I typically offer walks and drop-in visits at any time of day. I am certified in canine First Aid as well as my training certifications and extensive firsthand experience. I am confident that I can provide a safe and happy environment for your pup, no matter what their needs or behaviors. I currently only offer drop-ins and walks, however puppy play dates may be discussed prior to booking if your pup plays well with others! If you are requesting walks or drop ins, I will ask a few initial questions about your dog’s temperament and potential triggers to get a sense of your dog’s personality before our time together, and I strongly prefer to do an in-person Meet and Greet so we can go over your pet's care. Most clients provide their own equipment (leashes, etc), but I carry spares in my car if for any reason you misplace yours or I feel that the equipment could cause any safety concerns. I'm looking forward to meeting your furry family members!

Ayah is just the absolute best with our dogs. Even though she moved I am willing to fly this smart, dependable woman to my house to watch my animals!

Ayah did a great job with the cats. She was very communicative and responsive and gave thorough updates on the cats each visit. Will definitely use her again in the future

Safety, trust & environment

I am certified in dog First Aid and carry a First Aid kit at all times in my car in case of emergencies. At the Meet and Greet, I will ask to confirm any medications, vet contact information and any information I should know regarding your pet's health and behavior. I treat every pup and every house as if they were my own and will also send a summary of our time together after every visit. Feel free to ask any specific questions if you have concerns or requests for our time together!

Information Ayah B. would like to know about your pet

No preferences on breed here, I accept any pup at any size! Please let me know in advance if your dog has any issues with other dogs, or any particular triggers on walks (likes to chase squirrels, loves saying hi to strangers, etc), or any behaviors that I should keep an eye out for. I have experience with "nervous"/reactive pets and will not decline a pet solely for being reactive, but please let me know this ahead of time so we can discuss the best way to move forward.

A typical day

I recently relocated from the Midwest back closer east. I am still exploring the area, but would love to take your pup around the block, to a park, or to my place for a puppy playdate! I am very flexible and have a range of experience, from little puppies learning their leash manners, to senior dogs that need some company for quiet time or a drive around town due to difficulty walking. Let me know if you have any specific preferences to where you would like me to take your dog during our time together or anything in particular you would like to focus on!

These prices are for one dog. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.

My other job involves freelance art from home, so my hours are highly flexible. I do my best to work around your and your pet's schedule and will give time ranges that I will be at your home ahead of time if I cannot guarantee an exact time for any reason.
