About me: -Strong focus on proper care, handling, and dog training, and safety protocols are what sets me apart from others. -I am a sales specialist working from home part time. I can be flexible, but need a few days notice to adjust my week! -I own a reactive dog! His name is Stan and he’s the reason I became so well versed in reactivity, training, basic obedience, and dog body language. His severe reactivity changed my life and he was the catalyst that really made me invest in behavioral research and training. -I provide standard services like walking and drop ins in addition to dog running sessions and obedience training sessions with high-drive dogs or working breeds who need daily training reinforcement. I can follow your training program to ensure your dog gets constant training reinforcement. -While I cannot care for human reactive/aggressive dogs, I am experienced in how to care for dogs with special behavioral requirements, special jobs, and health concerns. I can easily lift up to 75-90lbs so large dogs with mobility issues are no problem for me! My extensive knowledge of dog body language, obedience, training methods and safety around other animals will give you peace of mind that your dog is in great hands while you’re traveling or working and you can trust that the methods used will always align with the standard of care that you give your pup. DISCLAIMER: I want to clarify that I use balanced methods with my dog due to the severity of his reactivity. I will only use PURE POSITIVE methods with client dogs unless you have worked with a balanced trainer *PRIOR TO* booking with me. I am able to use tools if your dog has been trained with them, but I cannot train your dog how to use them for the first time. If you would like more information on balanced training, I can redirect you to my local dog trainer who has helped me rehab my dog (she’s fantastic). Your dog will be trained, walked, or run with the tools and methods you prefer—I am extremely well versed in how to use all tools, positive and balanced. Fish and reptile care: I am able to perform daily water changes, water conditioning, API testing daily (with pictures provided), feeding (including live food), and basic tank maintenance for freshwater fish in tanks and ponds up to 500 gallons. I am able to care for reptiles including feeding and tank maintenance—no venomous snakes or creepy crawlers please, frozen food only, I’m squeamish with bugs!
