Dog Trainer, Rescuer, and Sitter

Pet care experience

I run Hard Knocks Rescue & Training, Inc. with a friend. We take in the “unadoptable” and teach them proper socialization skills while building their confidence and reducing their anxieties. Most of our training is for dogs with anxiety issues as well. These are also the dogs I prefer to do sitting jobs for. Our approach is respect-based and never rushed. I consider it an honor to win the trust of a fearful animal and enjoy the challenge of helping them overcome their fears. All four of my dogs are rescues and we always have at least one foster. Our life revolves around them and we wouldn’t want it any other way. Over the last three years we have fostered over 50 dogs and worked with many others in various capacities. My husband and teenage son both help with all of the dogs in our care.

Lisa did such a wonderful job taking care of our Bluebell! I felt so at ease knowing she was in good hands & I really appreciated the pictures & updates!

I was very hesitant to leave my 6 month old lab puppy with anyone especially being our first time boarding her. Lisa made me feel comfortable with the amount of experience and knowledge she had of taking care of dogs. Lacey had a great time at Lisa’s house and even made a pup friend! When I picked her up, she looked happy and healthy just as I dropped her off. Thank you!!

I would 110% recommend Lisa to anyone not wanting to worry about leaving their dog while traveling! She was so flexible and definitely helped me not be a worried dog mom while traveling hours away. She took the time to answer my concerns and also send pictures throughout Garrison's stay. I will definitely be using her again in the future and I recommend you do the same!

Information Lisa M. would like to know about your pet

I’m a sucker for bully breeds but love every kind, large or small. I believe every dog is a lap dog.

A typical day

We live in a quiet, family neighborhood with a small park and creek to explore. We love to sit outside and throw a ball or watch the dogs play.
