Tiny,Big,Young,Old~I Train em all!!

Pet care experience

So you can actually call me Kim(middle name) rover just went off my license…. I am of course an animal lover and owner myself! I spend my days with my two boys Mr. Muggsy Bouges(2 yr old retriever/rottie/chow chow mix) and he is the sweetest most playful pup that loves all dogs and people. Kylo, is my other boy(2.5 yr old retriever/Chow mix) he is a high energy, intelligent, looking to work kind of pup, and loves to run and play chase or tug o war! These two boys help me with my work everyday along with my two other lesson pups, as I am an independent trainer. I run my train n play (PAWtastic Playtime!) from my house. I believe that dog/owner relationship is key to any type of training with animals, and the foundation of a great partnership. I am a positive reinforcement trainer using the LIMA(Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) method. I specialize in problematic behaviors, obedience and socialization skills, and basics, as well as working with shelter and rescue dogs. I studied at the ABC college for Dog obedience program and am currently finishing my short term programs in animal nutrition, small animal massage and training and working with shelter dogs. My favorite thing to say is with all animals Patience is a virtue, never rush them cause remember they can only understand what we teach them.

Kim was caring and attentive to my dog and skillfully handled his quirks. My dog returned home happy and sleepy.

This is my second time boarding with Kim and she is awesome! Remy had a blast playing with Kim's dogs and going on hikes.. He came back happy and tired out! I won't be using anyone else to look after Remy!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kim was amazing!! She took Remy on multiple hikes and sent pictures and videos. It was awesome seeing all the fun he was having! Remy had a blast with Kim‘s two dogs which I love! She was easy to communicate with and super flexible. I would highly recommend Kim and will definitely be booking with her again!!

Safety, trust & environment

They have free roam of the place as long as they are respectful (i.e. excessive barking, digging and escape artists) of the place and of course the neighbors. They will have access to my large fenced in yard that is accessible from my deck. during hotter months I provide multiple kiddy pools, along with bowls of fresh water in all areas. there is a converted dog shed in the yard area where some also like to hang out and relax on the couch. I provide basic training and social skills with my board and daycare.(any aggressive need evaluation first) they get at least one walk in the neighborhood a day, hikes are play by ear kind of activity, and they have plenty of beds and crates and penned off areas to choose from to sleep!

Information Cindy B. would like to know about your pet

Id love to know if your pup is Socialized? Off leash? House Broken? Crate Trained? Any Problematic Behaviors? Training? Anxiety? Food Habits? Any Aggressive Behaviors?

A typical day

We go to the parks and trails in nearby woods and conservation lands, as well as having as much playtime in my yard as they want. if its raining I have my training area that they can use as well as living room with plenty of toys and games.n

I work from my home, so I am home majority of time, if I am not home im more than likely found in the woods or the local parks exploring with our four legged loved ones!!! I never leave a pup alone either, as I always leave them with a buddy if I can't bring them with me for some reason.
