My girlfriend and I are proud parents of a well-trained, medium sized, and playful Bernedoodle, Ella. Ella is super social with both dogs and people alike, and especially loves her puppy playtime if you're looking for extra social time for your loved one while you're away. Growing up on a 650 acre farm in KS, I always wanted to be a zoologist, and have spent my whole life around animals (horses, cattle, pigs, cats, and yes, lots of dogs!). I've trained two horses, and 3 dogs over the years, so I have the interest and skills in helping make our time together productive, if you need help reinforcing your own training. My approach is to be attentive, and consistent, but to also shower animals in lots of praise and positive reinforcement. Whether playtime together in the dog park (there are 3 in the area, and I have a dog-friendly car for transport!), tug of war, fetch in the backyard, or down time spent lounging together with lots of cuddles, you can be sure that you're leaving your treasured family member and friend in the best hands possible. I am conveniently located in Howard-Shaw neighborhood; my large brownstone has two floors, and a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for your loved one to play and relax!
