Certified Trainer/ Home 24/7

Pet care experience

I have always loved dogs and was even found sleeping in a dog house with 3 other dogs as child. After serving in the military, I was a Police K9 handler for two separate sheriffs offices in VA. I received my certification as a law enforcement dog handler in 2011. I realized that i also enjoyed teaching citizens at K9 demonstrations that their pets at home had the same potential and skills as my K9 partner and started boarding and training professionally. I specializes in dogs with aggression and biting problems but enjoy all dogs big and small. I have boarded just about every type of dog in my home with my family. We offer a unique experience that if capable the dogs are even allowed to sleep with my kids 8-10-13. I am canine CPR/first aid certified and have several other certifications. I am always available to my clients and offer a unique experience for your pet to live with a trusted dog trainer, I post photos and videos of all the dogs that come to me as well. So when you are away you can still see your buddy having fun or just hanging out with the family.

Larry loves, loves dogs. He enjoys being with dogs, loves training them and exploring their personalities. He is on-time, will pick up your dog if needed, takes them with him for car rides (if you want), is intuitive about their needs and is great in an emergency. I would recommend him for any type/age of dog. What I like is that he posts photos of your dog on facebook so you can "see" your furbaby even when your away-gave me piece of mind that my baby was being treated well.

Where to start? Larry has nearly a decade of experience of handling, training, boarding and connecting with dogs of all breeds. Personally, Larry has cared for my two dogs every time I have to travel out of town. Sometimes for a week or two at a time. He takes the time to send daily updates with videos and pictures. I never have had a second thought leaving my dogs with Larry and his family. In fact Bolt and Storm are excited every time they see him. 100% I would recommend Larry for all your pets boarding and training. We wouldn’t go to anyone else in the area.

A typical day

We live in a quiet rural community so we like to take our clients for walks in the neighborhood with my personal dogs. My Dutch Shepherd “Ulu” is a great dog friend while you are away and if your dog doesn’t enjoy the company of others dogs we have our house set up to keep everyone happy and enjoy their stay. If permitted I am also a K9 trainer at a professional Kennel. I enjoy taking my clients with me to get car rides, doggie treats at the coffee shop, and longer walks at the park or our very long access road near a river. So we have loads of fenced in play areas and an inside area as well. and if your wondering your pup would never be kenneled and would be staying with me the whole time.
