✨✨✨Overview of Services - PLEASE READ ✨✨✨ 🏠FOR BOARDING SERVICES🏠: Recently, I lost my beloved companion to bone cancer after an eight-month battle. He was my soul dog, and his absence is deeply felt. Currently, my home doesn't have any pets, but it's perfectly suited for dogs of all sizes. I prefer to host only one dog at a time, ensuring they receive undivided attention, ample playtime, and the affection they deserve. 💛Note: If your dog has separation anxiety, please let me know in advance. This allows me to coordinate with my partner's schedule to ensure 100% coverage during my working hours. ✨ Premium Add-Ons Focused Training Session | $30 | 30 minutes Nature Trail Hike | $20 | 1-2hours Beach Exploration | $20 | 1-2 hours 🐕🦺FOR DOG-WALKING SERVICES🐕🦺: I believe walks should be stress-free experiences for our furry companions. To achieve this, I emphasize the proper use of tools and techniques. For dogs prone to pulling, I advocate for anti-pull tools like front-clip harnesses or head halters. For those who walk politely, back-clip harnesses are suitable. Additionally, I prioritize mental stimulation and allow ample time for sniffing and exploration to keep your pup happy and fulfilled during our walks. 💛Leash-Reactive Dogs - If your furry companion is leash-reactive, please inform me in advance so we can make the necessary preparations and set them up for success during our walks. Your dog's comfort and safety are paramount, and by knowing their specific needs, I can tailor our outings to ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for both of us. **I do not accept dogs who wear any aversive tools. Instead, I focus on positive reinforcement techniques and gentle methods to encourage good behavior and a pleasant walking experience.** 🚶FOR DROP-IN SERVICES🚶: I can feed your pet, take them out for a potty break, and even go for a quick walk around the block. Please provide clear feeding instructions or any necessary medical instructions beforehand to ensure your pet's needs are met with the utmost care and attention.

Pet care experience
I'm a Certified Positive Reinforcement Dog Trainer, working part-time with two dog training organizations as a Trainer and Behavior Specialist. I've had the pleasure of working with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise adults. Through my certifications and experience, I've developed a keen understanding of dog body language, behaviors, and their significance. My expertise includes puppy training, obedience, impulse control, leash walking, managing leash reactivity, and regulating prey drive. Additionally, I love teaching fun and useful tricks using positive reinforcement techniques. In my sessions, I utilize a combination of rewards and praise to ensure a positive experience for your furry babies.
Reviews
I cannot recommend Radhika enough! Looking after a German Shepherd requires someone who truly understands the breed's intelligence, energy, and need for structure, and Radhika absolutely nailed it. Blitz took to her immediately. She kept up perfectly with his active exercise routine, paid close attention to his specific diet, and provided the mental stimulation he craves. I received regular, reassuring updates and came home to a relaxed, incredibly happy dog. If you have a large breed or a dog that requires precise, dedicated care, Radhika is the absolute best. Blitz is already looking forward to his next stay!
Our dog had a great stay with Radhika. Thank you again taking such great care of our dog!
Radhika was absolutely amazing while watching our Chocolate Lab for eight nights. She provided tremendous peace of mind with regular daily updates, photos, and detailed walk information. It was clear she truly connected with our dog and prioritized her comfort throughout the entire stay. Even when we faced unexpected travel delays on our return, Radhika was incredibly flexible and accommodating. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!
Radhika is an 11/10 sitter and went above and beyond with my senior Doberman, Jimmy. Jimmy last stayed with her for 3 weeks and he absolutely bonded and loved her. She sent me pictures and videos of him and kept me updated every day when I was overseas. She even celebrated him on his 11th birthday! I can tell he misses her and we will for sure use Radhika in the near future. Thank you, Radhika! 🙏🏼
