I have 15 years of experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have trained dogs and taught puppy classes and socialization classes, and worked at several local dog daycare and boarding centers. While living in Portland I offered in home boarding and training for the past 5 years. Most importantly, I have a strong love for dogs, as well as a natural ability to connect and communicate with them. As a previous dog trainer, I am able to keep up the hard work that you have put in to teaching your dog manners while they are with me. I work to make their stay with me as close to their everyday home life as possible. If they are allowed on the furniture at home, they can snuggle with me on the couch at my home. Working to keep them off the beds? I will keep that up while they are with me. I am home full time and only have one client at a time, so your pets will have my full attention during their stay!
