Outside often - training available

Pet care experience

I've been the dog trainer for every family dog, dog whispering is one of my finer skills. My walks are usually in natural areas and trail areas, overnight dogs get this benefit, walk-only dogs will enter nature if the area allows it. When walking dogs I take pics of our fun adventures! All photos will be shared with clients. I'm very good with off-leash dogs and I have successfully trained three dogs to walk without a leash. I will not unleash a dog in inappropriate zones. I will only unleash a dog for the first time as a part of client-arranged training. When using leashes, I will train dogs to walk with a leash as a natural side-effect of the walk, and I can take special instructions for training. I will not accept the use of shock collars or pain stimuli. My availability is flexible, but I will only work outside of Reno/Sparks for house-sitting and prearranged pickup/dropoff.

Information Carolyn F. would like to know about your pet

I have a cat who loves dogs and will try to interact or play with anything larger than a bulldog, so I am cautious of taking any dog that would react with animosity toward her. If I am sitting for a dog that attacks my cat, I will not sit for that dog again.

A typical day

I will drive dogs to natural areas as part of my regular trail walking/hiking routine. My usual haunts are El Rancho San Rafael Park (dog park included), El Rancho San Rafael National Park, Mayberry Park area, and a number of small trailheads in North-West Reno. If your dog loves running and being outside, I'm the pupsitter of their dreams!
