Dog trainer/pup lover in one!
Pet care experience
I'm a certified R+ dog trainer who would love to spend some time with your pup! I've owned rescue dogs for 5+ years, and I know how to care for them -- especially dogs who are scared or anxious about their new environment. Your pup's safety is extremely important to me, and all dogs are on leash when we're on a walk. When I'm caring for a dog, my attention is solely focused on them. I'll treat them like they're my furbabies! When you book with me, not only will you get a pup lover and dog caretaker, but your pup will also get some one-on-one training time with me (consider it an extra bonus!). My training focuses on basic obedience: sit, stay, come, paw/shake, heel, wait at the door, and loose leash walking, touch, and leave it. I can also teach spin and on/off (of furniture or people). I'm also happy to work with them on any practice skills you've done or give you tips if you'd like to continue their learning. *Separation Anxiety*: This is a big one for those of us with pandemic pups. I have experience taking care of and training my own separation anxiety dog, so you're in luck if you need someone who knows how to take care of a pup with separation anxiety.
Reviews
Jess has watched our pup several times and done basic training with her. One of the most helpful things Jess helped train with was when introducing a new, highly stressed dog into our home with our current dog. She came over several times after work and worked with the two dogs. The dogs eventually got to a point where they could run around together. Jess is very patient and caring with dogs and gives great tips! Highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
If I'm sitting or taking care of your pups at your home, I will keep them on leash when we're walking outdoors. During the meet and greet, we can discuss areas where they are allowed to go or not go. Dogs who are in my home have access to a fenced patio (only when I'm on the patio with them) with a doggy potty area. If your dog is crate trained, I can also crate them if needed.
