K9 handler sitter services

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs all my life, but recently got three crazies of my own and started my dog training journey. I’m currently a tech at K9defense and am in school to learn more about canine behavior/training science! Currently I am mentoring through my school and teaching obedience classes. Besides offering services through Rover, I am a trainer who focuses on basic and advanced obedience. I have three dogs of my own who participate in dog sports and working dog activities

EXTREMELY HAPPY! Lainey was so great with our pup. Our dog is high energy and young and she was great getting her exercise at the dog park with her other dogs. We will definitely have her watch our dog again. We also highly recommend her to others in the area! Thank you Lainey✌️

Safety, trust & environment

In my apartment complex there is a private dog park that is always empty, and another open field up the street. I take my dogs to both as a space to run around in and make the most of apartment living. I have a high energy breed (malinois) so when your dog stays with us there will be no problem getting proper exercise and enrichment! I have experience with many different breeds, even high maintenance and dogs with behavioral problems. I myself am particular about who my dogs board with when I travel as they are higher maintenance breeds who need an experienced caregiver, so you can feel assured that your dog’s temperament, needs, and behavioral issues are understood when boarding with me. I do not discriminate against any breeds or temperaments, all are welcome! If your dog is selective, they are still absolutely welcome to board with me. My dogs are neutral and can coexist with others, and will have no issue being alternated throughout the day. If your dog is like mine, playtime will still be monitored as it is important to me to make sure all dogs are playing stress-free with no conflict. As a trainer, I am seasoned in dog body language and can read conflict in these interactions, therefore possible fights will not be an issue. Altercations break out because owners do not know the warning signs. It’s important to me that not only will your dog(s) will be safe during their stay, but mine as well!

Information Lainey M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your dogs medical needs, temperament and any behavioral issues beforehand. Since I have two dogs myself, I would like to evaluate temperaments and see if it would be a good and safe fit (applies to boarding in my home). My dogs are very well mannered/behaved, so they will not be an issue. For boarding, your dog does need to be crate trained. Since I live in an apartment complex it is important that your dog will sleep through the night on a dog bed/in crate without being noisy or destructive.

A typical day

Dogs wake up with me, eat breakfast and go out. Usually I save walks until the evening since it is so hot, unless it’s a park day. Your dog will not always be interacting with mine, so they will get quality time and care at their stay. If it is more of a laid back day, I provide enrichment for the dogs like puzzles, snuffle mats, lick mats, etc! The dogs will have structure throughout the day when home by being alternated in crates and will have designated periods of play when I can fully supervise.
