With a passion for animals - including years of experience caring for and training dogs, coupled with 20+ years riding and training horses (another herd animal) - I am practiced in safety, patience, and positive instruction. I am versed in canine behavioral science and believe in training through clear, consistent, and positive communication - making the desired behavior easy. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments - from insecure and anxious rescues to confident and rambunctious puppies. Since animals are one of a kind and all learn differently, I cater care specifically to each dog's unique needs. I offer private or semi-private dog walking as well as pet sitting and boarding in my single-family home with fenced yard. As well as dog walking and training, I work remotely as a creative problem solver, marketing and branding small businesses. I have a flexible schedule meaning I can devote the time and care needed to your pet. I will be sure to provide a safe environment with clear guidelines for mental and physical stimulation. Boarding Clients: Please note that my overnight rate covers 24 hours. My normal drop-off hours are after 12pm and pickup before 3pm, but I’m happy to work with your schedule if necessary. Additional fees for walking or daycare my apply. I am versed in canine behavioral science and believe in training through clear, consistent, and positive communication. Since animals are one of a kind, I cater care specifically to each dog's unique needs and am happy to work with you to be sure I am providing care you can trust. All of my services are private or semi-private, never handling more than 1 dog at once, so I can give your pup my full care and attention. Semi-private services are only available for up to 2 particularly well suited dogs.
