Professional Dog Trainer

Pet care experience

Hire a professional dog trainer to take care of you pets! I am more than a hobby caregiver, I am a highly skilled professional. I have over 13 years of professional experience working with and taking care of dogs. I have worked in multiple different doggy daycares, done house sitting, walked dogs and have been training professionally for the past 5 years. I have worked with dogs of all size, age, breed and temperament. I have experience with dogs who are high enery, difficult to walk on leash, reactive, fearful or otherwise in need of experienced, and thoughtful care.

Deb was amazing with Baylor, above and beyond what I expected!! She is extremely responsible and reliable. This was my first time using Rover and I am very pleased with Deborah. Baylor will be excited to see her the next time.

Deb was fantastic! Our dogs loved her. They loved the walks and attention she gave them, and we enjoyed the pictures she shared with us while we were out of state. It was really nice to know the dogs were being taken care of by someone that truly cared about them. We will definitely use Deb again!

Deborah was EXCELLENT!! Feeny got lots of love, walks and treats. He's already asked when Deborah can come back over and play ? Seriously, I would highly recommend Deborah to anyone needing a dependable and loving pet sitter. We will definitely use her again in the future.

Deborah took care of our 2 kitties while we were on vacation, and she did a great job! She sent us cute pictures from each of her visits, which made my kids very happy. :) I'd definitely recommend her to others looking for pet sitting services.

Safety, trust & environment

I share my life with many dogs and utilize household management to ensure everyone is safe and comfortable. I use gates and kennels to limit access to areas that may be unsafe and to separate dogs as needed. My own dogs are kept seperate from client dogs, so I rotate dogs taking turns giving everyone one on one quality time with me. When I am not home and overnight all dogs are safely contained either in a kennel or confined to a safe portion of the house.

Information Deborah S. would like to know about your pet

Health Concerns - If you pet has any limitations or special needs, I want to be sure I know beforehand to prevent any accidents or injuries. Behavior concers - Please share any behavior concerns you have about your dogs. I am skilled at handling all types of dogs and am pretty flexible when it comes to accomodating behavor challenges, but there are some things I cannot accomodate. I need to be able to safely handle your dog - walk them on leash for potties, feed and provide care. If they are unable to handle this initially, I am willing to work with you on building a training plan to get you there! This is a judgement free space, no behavior issue is a poor reflection of you or your dog, so please be transparent! It helps me better care for you dog.

A typical day

Pets in my care can expect a day full of fun and activities! The property I am on has a large 2 acre fully fenced in yard that we can run around and play in! For days when the weather is not as nice I have a large living area with plent of space for play and activity and lots of fun toys and training equipment that we can play with. For dogs who are dog social, I will allow supervised play sessions with my dogs or other friendly boarding dogs.

I am a dog trainer and my schedule is a mix of working from home, traveling to clients homes and teaching group classes. Most days I am home in the mornings and during the afteroon and spend the time taking care of he dogs and giving everyone time to play and enjoy some quality time with me. Late afternoons and evenings I may be doing in home visits or teaching group classes. When I am not home all dogs are contained in a crate or confined to small, safe portion of the house. Dogs are not left alone for periods exceeding 4-6 hours.
