Experienced Service Dog Trainer
Pet care experience
I am a therapy and service dog trainer turned stay-at-home mom. I've been training and working with therapy dogs since 2013, and worked as a service dog trainer for disabled veterans until my 3rd child was born in 2016. I enjoy getting to understand the different personalities that come with each individual pup I meet. I'm a true animal lover, and from a young age I have enjoyed working with a verity of animals, to include dogs, horses, and many other farm animals. Engaging in fun activities to mentally and physically engage our wonderful furry friends is very rewarding for me. I have a fenced-in back yard area that can accommodate outdoor play, even in wet conditions. In our home, we truly have Happy Hearts and Happy Hounds.
Reviews
Absolutely fantastic! My dog is adapting well to the greater crowd, and she does very well managing all of them! So thankful!
Clair and her family were amazing. They kept us updated with pictures throughout our dogs stay and were super accommodating to schedule changes (pickup day early, flexible times due to work, etc.). Would absolutely book again without question.
I have been looking for someone to help acclimate my GSD to larger crowds and different environments. It appears as though I have found the help I was looking for… Clair and her family did a wonderful job. They exposed my little girl to new friends and what seems like an entire new world of a backyard for her to explore. She is happily resting as I speak… I will most definitely be bringing my dog back!
Clair took such great care of my boy. I got plenty of pictures and updates and I could tell he was having the time of his life. She has an incredible yard that he loved so much. She will be my new go to when I’m heading out of town.

Information Clair R. would like to know about your pet
Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
We have an extra large fenced in yard that the dogs are free to roam around and smell all the new areas as they are having fun running around and playing with our super friendly wolfhound. I typically do not take dogs to dog parks as one cannot control the actions of other people's dogs and I feel like that's too much risk to take.

Availability
My husband and I both work from home full time. We have plenty of time to spend petting and caring for your pup! I am available most days and can be flexible to meet your needs.
