Dog behavioralist and trainer

Pet care experience

I've been studying dog behavior for over 9 years. I also have experience as a veterinary receptionist and grooming assistant. I train pet dogs on good behavior as well as rehabilitation for fearful or aggressive dogs. Safety is my #1 concern. Every dog that comes into my home is treated like family, as I do my own dogs. I am blessed with a large house that has a separate living quarters for the boarding dogs and a big beautiful fenced yard. Both are kept clean and hazard free. I would love to host your dog and make sure you are worry free while you're away!

Felicia was so great with my boys! We booked for boarding last minute and she was able to take them no problem. The boys got to relax and spend time outside, it was like their own separate vacation. 5/5!

Felicia was an excellent sitter. She was communicative and knowledgeable. I will definitely be using her services again in the future.

Felicia was great with our Golden Doodle puppy! It gave me so much peace of mind while my daughters and I enjoyed a mini getaway to Chicago. It was great that she sent us pictures and a video that of our puppy!

Safety, trust & environment

Saftey and cleanliness are my top concerns. My home is clean and hazard free. I am "puppy proof" and always vigilant. Dogs are not left free roaming when unattended. Dogs are always kenneled when I am away and at night for safety. YOU MUST BE OKAY WITH YOUR DOG BEING KENNELED AT NIGHT AND WHEN I AM NOT IN THE HOME. I have accommodations and experience working with aggressive or reactive dogs and can also accommodate/work with kennel anxitey. I am able to keep dogs separate from my personal dogs if needed. Dogs that are friendly will be able to socialize/play with my very well tempered pack, depending on owner preference. I have a fenced yard and there are no gaps or ways to get out. I can also accommodate jumpers using a long recall leash!

Information Felicia S. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog people and/or dog friendly? I am able to accommodate either way. Any quirks or things to watch out for would be great to know as well. Has your dog has ever been boarded outside your home previously? I need to know if your dog has any health issues or medication. I can accommodate.

A typical day

Dogs get backyard time and time in the home environment. I have a variety of brain games and toys/bones for entertainment! They get plenty of treats, love and affection!

I work with dogs as a career and am home full time. I have a daily routine that changes depending on what dogs I have. Each dog gets fed once or twice, a day depending on owner preference. For medical or dietary reasons feeding can me more or less frequent. Any medications needed will be given. Each dog gets back yard exercise daily. Of course they get plenty of love! 🐾
