Pets are family - Dog training too!

Pet care experience

I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I have trained almost all my dogs since they were puppies. I have trained my own service dog. I have a passion for training dogs. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time to play with and train your pup. I can take them for daily walks around the park as well. I have a fenced yard and a nearby park to take your dog for a walk. I have my own friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a cat, but if your dog does not like cats, I can isolate may cat from your dog. My big dog seems to have a way of knowing how to make dogs feel comfortable in our home. He knows when to interact with them and when to just leave them alone. I am retired so I have lots of time to spend with your dog. I try to schedule my activities around when I have dogs, so I can devote all my time to caring for the dogs. I have a fenced in yard. I always supervise dogs when they are outside. I try to set up play dates with a neighbor who also works for Rover. My husband and family members are usually around to play with and take dogs on walks.

Florene always takes wonderful care of all 3 of my pups. I never have to worry about them while on vacation, because I know she is taking the absolute best care of them. Florene is very accommodating, which we really appreciate. See you next weekend Florene!!

Florene was highly recommended to me by a friend and certainly did not disappoint. She was super accommodating and communicative and really shows she cares a lot about the pups in her care. I also greatly appreciated the frequent photo and video updates. Will definitely be back!

She is a great human being, sends hourly pictures of our dog. We would highly recommend her and my dog loves her. She even sent our dog back with 2 toys.

Information Florene M. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know what kinds of activities your dog enjoys doing? What level of training has your dog had, if any? I enjoy training dogs and would love to work with your dog based on his/her level. I use positive training techniques to make learning new things fun. I love when my dogs learn how to learn. I enjoy working with all breeds. Training and dog walks are included in my service at no additional fee.

A typical day

I can walk your dog around the parks within walking distance of my home. There is a nearby trail we can walk to as well. I will do positive basic training with dogs in my care. (Sit, down, stay, loose leash walking, etc.) My philosophy is that a trained dog is a happy dog. Dogs will have ongoing opportunities to play with my dogs. My drop-in visits are for training purposes only. I train the dog with the clients present in their own home.
