Hi, my name is Ray, and I have over 20 years of hands-on experience owning and personally training dogs. Over the years, I’ve trained four dogs from the ground up and regularly provide pet sitting, dog walking, and training services for friends and family—so they can travel with complete peace of mind. I offer pet sitting, dog walking, dog training, and check-in visits for pets while their owners are away. Whether you need reliable care during a trip or help building better behavior at home, I’m here to help. Is your dog in need of basic obedience training? Struggling with behaviors like jumping, barking, or biting? Or simply need someone you can trust to walk and care for your dog while you’re away? I specialize in positive reinforcement training, using rewards and praise to encourage good behavior while gently discouraging unwanted habits. I prioritize your dog’s comfort and safety at all times. I do not crate dogs unless absolutely necessary, and only if I feel it’s required for the pet’s well-being. I also have access to a park directly behind me, providing a great space for daily walks, structured training, and enrichment. Every dog is different, which is why I create customized training plans based on your dog’s needs and your goals as an owner. I believe training is about more than commands—it’s about building a strong bond rooted in trust, respect, and consistency. I also provide personalized guidance so you can confidently continue the training at home. I’m also a proud dog owner myself and currently have an 8-month-old pup, so I fully understand the time, patience, and care it takes to raise a happy, well-balanced dog. If you’re looking for a dependable, passionate, and experienced dog trainer or walker, I’d love to work with you. Reach out today to schedule your first walk, training session, or pet sitting visit. I guarantee a great experience for both you and your furry friend—every penny well spent!
