Carol has a lot of experience caring for dogs and training to help dog owners create a well mannered pet. Carol also has a demeanor which obtains respect and guidance handling dogs and is good at explaining to the dog owner the reasons why a procedure works. With my dogs Carol has worked with, I can fully attest that she is responsible, committed, loving and trustworthy. I would not hesitate to recommend Carol to any one needing her assistance.

Carol is a wonderful animal lover and therapy dog trainer. She has multiple dogs her self, and has trained 4 of my labs as therapy dogs that work in my dental office. She'll give your animal all the attention and love that she does her own!

Information Carol D. would like to know about your pet

no breed preferences. What I would like to know is if the pup has been boarded before, what kind of experience was that? Is the dog outgoing, laid back or shy. Does the dog enjoy learning new skills?

A typical day

I have 7 acres of trails, I enjoy going into the community for social events such as FIT DOG exercise walks, and other related pup activities with friends.
