Exclusive love from dog behaviorist
Pet care experience
I am a PhD in animal ecology and have been trained as a dog behavioral specialist, working for the Edmonton Humane Society, Montreal SPCA, and Athens Humane Society (10 years experience overall). I have worked with and rehabilitated dogs with all temperaments and from all walks of life, and I love them all! Given my background, I can offer training suggestions and programs for your dog, and work with your dog on issues, if this is something you'd additionally be interested in. I especially love the challenge of shy dogs and the calm wisdom of geriatric dogs, but also enjoy getting out for runs with the rambunctious sort. I have a nurturing personality and will care for and treat your dog according to their own unique temperment and needs. I cannot wait to get started with you and meet your fur-baby!
Reviews
I will absolutely be booking with Ria again. She was incredible and put my mind at ease while I was away. I received photos and updates throughout my week-long trip and knew Birdie was in safe and welcoming hands. Ria went above and beyond and my puppy didn't want to leave when it was time to come home.
Ria G. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Ria took great care of Hallie. Our pup had a great day over at her house
She da best!

Are your dogs fully vaccinated? How do your dogs get along with other animals? How does your pup do when left alone?
A typical day
I only sit one client’s pet at a time, so you can rest assured that your dog(s) will receive ALL the love and attention! My home is a great option for pups who need special attention, don’t play well with others, or whose owners want their animals to receive 1:1 time all day long! When you’re away, my philosophy is it should be a vacation for them too! I’d love to spoil them with all the things they love most, whether it’s treats, lots of playtime, hikes or cuddles. My home is large, and has a fenced in front and back yard, which will make it easy for your dog(s) to get a lot of great sunshine and outdoor time in addition to regular walks. ***Note: While I love working with dogs of all personality types, I currently cannot accept pups with destructive tendencies. This includes chewing, marking, or otherwise damaging property that does not belong to them! I love taking the more athletic dogs on runs, but am also happy with less energetic strolls. I also bake my own doggy treats that your puppy can enjoy (with your permission!).
