Grew up with many dogs, owned two high energy breeds personally and am comfortable with all sizes and attention spans :) In addition to the extensive first hand experience I've had through rover I've also gone through multiple courses on the wagfield academy website in basic dog training principles and I employ positive reinforcement techniques with my pooch Laila :) Laila has spent countless hours socializing with other dogs and would love having a friend over to play :) I am available for pickup/dropoff any time of day - please reach out to me and we can discuss the details. I am open for meet and greets after 5pm during the week and anytime on the weekend -- if you need a time outside these hours though I can likely accommodate :) I am home 24/7 during sittings. I try to get outside with the dogs every hour or two as well as a morning and evening walk to burn energy. I have a fenced in back yard that is big and little dog proof. I only use positive reinforcement and only use kennels on request. I use the 'set for success' mantra as a guide around the house and take responsibility for the actions of the stays under my roof -- as an example - if a dog has an accident in the house - we will go outside more often and provide some positive reinforcement when they do use the bathroom outside :) My dog Laila is very friendly with other dogs. The house is fully dog proofed (one level access, counters, tables, bedstands and sidetables cleared etc). I only employ positive reinforcement techniques as mentioned above - this means no yelling, hitting or aggression in any way towards your dog in any circumstances :) I will make you aware of any untoward behavior that I encounter and will happily offer any advice I have surrounding it (though I very well know dogs will be dogs and doubt your dog will do anything I haven't seen before :))
