Ria introduced all four of our dogs one at a time at the meet and greet and did very well. I messed up the initial booking day, but Ria was very accommodating. The dogs seemed happy and healthy in pictures and during pickup. So I would reccomend!

I have to say, that was the best experience boarding our families dog. Ria was amazing to say the least! I know with 100% certainty that our pup was in great hands the whole time. We will be using her services EVERY time we need to board! Thank you Ria for treating Diesel like your own!

Absolutely 5 stars. When we did a meet and greet, it was obvious my baby Aries had some manners to learn. Ria was patient, kind and confident in being able to care for my Aries, and the pictures they shared throughout had my jaw on the floor! My girlie who barks at everything was out walking. Amazing talent and heart. Would recommend, and 100% will be without hesitation returning to Ria when we need boarding for our girl.

I am super super protective and picky with how my dogs are handled and treated. i know what works for them and its hard to find someone who actually gets this. Ria let me ramble before dropping my mini me off and let me know what they would be doing and how she handles conflict if it happens. Because she's also a trainer i felt way better about leaving her for a few nights. i would recommend her to anyone who is unsure about behavior and pick her brain about tips for your babies. she also has private sessions available for training too and that was something i was curious about. Thank you RIAAA!!!!!

Our dogs are our children. myself and my husband spend all of our off time with our dogs bringing them into different environments and training them in special aids such as support and hunting. also continue to reinforce good healthy behaviors and redirect from negative and/ aggressive/unwanted behaviors. Meals are twice a day 530am and 530pm. place training weekly. individual training is done in rotation threw the week and consistency is key here . and lots of time outside. on the weekends we like to take them to a private land space to run around and practice recall. ** If you are looking for or need training classes i offer these as well from beginner puppy stages to reinforcing good behaviors. a message and quick modification is all that takes. ***IF YOU NO LONGER NEED A REQUEST PLEASE REACH OUT AND CANCEL****
