🐕 Helping pets live their best 🐈

Pet care experience

I have raised multiple dogs from birth to adulthood and am experienced with reward-based training methods (rather than punishment-based). I have cared for dogs with special needs and during injury/illness recovery. I'm an active person and happy to help your dog be active as well!

Kirtly was punctual, communicative, kind, well-informed and great with Poppy! 11/10 would recommend and hope to play again soon!

Kirtly has been doing a great job with my dog, Nala. He is responsive and gives great updates while I’m stuck at work :)

Information Kirtly R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or requirements. Are they afraid of particular things? Also, if they have a favorite activity that we can plan for!

A typical day

My dog walks provide both physical and mental stimulation. During walks I train on various behaviors, such as reducing pulling, and sitting before getting the okay to cross a street. If there's an enclosure or dog park nearby, there will definitely be some running and playing!
