Welcome to Worden’s Doggie Day Camp & Training: Where Sit Happens and Tails Never Stop Wagging! This isn’t a side gig this is what I do FULL TIME! Dogs are my passion, my career, and my daily life. With over 20 years in the pet industry and more than 10+ years as a veterinary technician, my experience runs deep. I’ve since expanded my education and become a Certified Dog Obedience Trainer and Instructor through Ashworth College’s Penn Foster Program. I’ve trained countless dogs across various breeds, ages, and temperaments! At home, I live with my two dogs who are always part of the action: Wheatley, my 4 year old Australian Shepherd and fully owner trained Service Dog. He’s my daily partner in both life and training, and we compete in several sports together. Gremlin, my 1 year old CKC Champion Chinese Crested, affectionately known as the house monster and expert cuddler. Before launching my own full-time business, I helped train puppies through Smith Haven Service Dog, supporting other handlers in the program. I’ve taught classes at local facilities and currently serve as both an ABI Urban and Country Rat Race Judge. I also teach UKC and CKC Rally and Obedience, helping handlers and their dogs strengthen teamwork and confidence. At Worden’s Doggie Day Camp, I provide structured canine care and enrichment services with a strong emphasis on safety, behavior, and appropriate social groupings. Dogs I work with are placed into compatible groups for supervised activity, enrichment, and skill building based on temperament, age, and energy level. I work with dogs of all ages, including seniors who benefit from a calmer pace and individualized handling. Each dog’s experience is tailored to their needs, whether that means active engagement, low impact enrichment, or focused behavioral support. All sizes, breeds, and energy levels are welcome. Basic obedience is required to ensure safety and group compatibility. I offer private training sessions and small group obedience work, conducted at client locations or other locations as needed. If you are looking for experienced, attentive canine care with a strong foundation in behavior and training, my focus is on creating safe, engaging experiences that support both mental and physical wellbeing.
