Dog Trainer & Former K9 Officer
Pet care experience
Hello, call me Bri! I am currently the head trainer of the civilian dog training program at Vohne Liche Kennels in Denver, IN. I am a former K9 Officer as well. Don’t let this intimidate you - I work with clients of all backgrounds and lifestyles, I do not discriminate, and I have a standard of integrity that means the world to me. I have owned my own business previously in Wisconsin for dog training and relocated to Indiana in late 2021. You will notice my rates may be a little more than the average on Rover. This is because there is no one else in the area that can compete with me on safety, quality, experience, communication, and opportunity for your canine! I apply my heart to the dogs that I work with, and I revolve my entire life around the world of canines. I have worked with some of the most renowned kennels and trainers in the US and have advanced canine first aid training. Before anything else, safety is my number one priority. I empathize 100% with the need for trust and a sense of security when someone else is taking care of your dog and entering your home. I will treat your canine and property with the attention to detail that you would expect, and deserve. My vehicle is outfitted for dog care as well. I carry a canine first aid kit along with me on every visit, and dogs will ride safely in the vehicle at all times. In addition, I have been certified, licensed, and trained in five different US states for security and protection services. I have numerous courses I have attended in public safety from the Department of Homeland Security and accredited colleges. I understand canine behavior on a very deep level due to my experience. I know that mental and physical stimulation needs are a daily requirement for each individual dog, and part of my care plan is to meet these needs to have a happy satisfied canine. Don’t hesitate to send me a message with any questions when you book with me! I also am a big fan of meet and greets prior to your booking so we can become comfortable with each other.
Reviews
Brianna was amazing! She is so thoughtful, smart, and connected. She communicates clearly and quickly. She OBVIOUSLY is a dog lover, but is also so in tune with training, obedience, and canine leadership. My partner and I hired her after reading her profile, and then she came to our house to do a walk through for our two dogs (a shy Great Dane who thinks she is a lap-dog, and a happy doodle-lab mix). They immediately trusted her, played with her dog in our back yard, and set our mind at ease. She constantly provided updates throughout the stay, and we have now told MANY friends and family how lucky we are to have found the "perfect dog companion" for when we travel without our pups. All I can say is THANK YOU to Brianna. Harly and Debra are looking forward to your next visit!
Bri is the best possible caregiver for your pets. She is knowledgeable, dependable, trustworthy, and always aware. Payton, my lab, loves spending time with her, and she's always bright-eyed and bushy-tailed when she sees Bri. Not only will your pets be in capable hands with Bri, but they will have a great time too!
Brianna is a wonderful pet person and a delight to interact with. She has professional experience handling, behavior training, and of course walking mans best friend. In addition, she has extensive experience with fish, cats, birds, and small mammals, through both owning them, and working at a pet store. She is consistent, reliable, caring, and hardworking and there is no one I would trust more with any of my pet needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I treat every animal as if they were my own. A principle I follow is always act as if the owner were with me, and keep personal safety at the forefront of every interaction. I have never had a dog get loose from me with the safety measures I take when caring for them.
Home
Information Brianna D. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if the dog has fear aggression to other animals or people; what your dog is reactive to if they have any reactivity issues; behavior problems such as resource guarding; if the dog has a pronounced prey drive; and what your expectations are for your specific booking.
A typical day
Walks will be on a route that is comfortable for the dog (depending on their needs) unless varied routes are approved by mom and/or dad. If your dog has food or toy drive and you would like any behavior reinforcement done for their basic obedience (heel, sit, stay, etc.) I can provide that upon request for walks, check ins, and house sits.

Dogs are a 24/7 part of my life. One of the best parts about boarding with me is - your dog will be with me at all times, because I take them to work with me! My office is set up in a way that your dog can hang out with me at work, and they have a spacious dog run to rest in that is closely supervised when I am training outside.
