Safety, trust & environment

My home is right in the middle of Duboce, Alamo Square and the Panhandle. Regular walks to and from those locales are an easy win for wearing out an eager dog - and at home I have lots of toys, a doggy bed, and I can provide a kennel if lugging around the one you use is impractical.

Information Corey J. would like to know about your pet

Every dog is a good dog! If there are any issues with food agression, fence-fighting or leash discipline that you're aware of, knowing those things up front would be a great help! I'll do what I can to help abate unwanted behavior through nothing but positive reinforcement, but knowing what to expect ahead of time means less surprises and more wags!

A typical day

The dog parks near me - Alamo Square especially, but also Duboce and Panhandle - are great places to explore, either on or off leash! For the runners, we can drive to the beach for some fun by the water, or just enrichment and leash manners reinforcement along a neighborhood walk on Page Street.

Corey J.'s Neighborhood

My mission is to pet every dog.

Pet care experience

Dog trainer for five years, dog lover for 30. I spent my college years working at a dog daycare and boarding facility in my home state of Ohio. Managing a room full of 50-100 dogs was a blast! But one or two at a time is fun, too. I've a Master's Degree in Animal Behaviorism, and that knowledge has only emboldened my undying love for dogs. Now that I'm here in the Bay Area, I hope to use my experience and knowledge to help enrich the lives of dogs all throughout San Francisco!

Corey is super professional and seems to really know his way around dogs. He watched our lab over a weekend and it went graeat!

Corey watched our golden retriever for a few days while we were out of town and everything went so smoothly. Super communicative and professional. Would recommend!

Corey is absolutely wonderful. Zephyr loves him so much it's like the vacation of a lifetime every time he goes to his house. We trust Corey absolutely and so appreciate him. If you're looking for someone take loving care your pet and treat them like his own, Corey is your guy.
