Hi doggie mommas and poppas! Looking forward to meeting your furbabies! A little about me... Dog lover to the core! I had 3 Portuguese Water Dogs for the past 15 years and find myself needing a canine presence now that they've each crossed the Rainbow bridge. My years of experience with my dogs includes grooming, breeding, multiple forms of obedience and (award winning!) dog sport training, and all around good doggie fun! Hiking, walks, hours of fetch, swimming and naps to name the highlights. Training has to be a favourite of mine...I love seeing that moment when a dog "gets it". My love of dog training will certainly benefit you if your pooch is doing classes, and you'd like him or her to stay consistent while you are at work or on vacation. Positive reinforcement and reward training only. I'm happy to take multiple dogs from the same family, or come to your home if they feel more comfortable that way. I will travel up to 300km for stays of 5 days or longer. Your dog(s) will have me virtually 24-7, as I work from home/remotely and have very flexible hours. And of course I'm good with dogs on the furniture and bed, but if you're not, I'm cool with that too! I look forward to getting to know you and your furbabies better!
