It's the DOG LIFE for me.

Pet care experience

I was fortunate enough to grow up in a home with dogs to experience first hand what unconditional love felt like. My goal is to adapt to your dogs personality and also provide the same level of care, love, and play that they are accustomed to at home.

Richard was so great with our dog! Kept in touch with us and followed what we do at home to keep things easy and consistent. Was very keen to support any training we were working on also. We will definitely book again

Richard is the biggest dog lover I know. He has been training dogs forever and helped me train my little guy Biggie. Taught me all the basic training moves such as sit, stay, down, and heal. I was able to learn how to get Biggie to walk next to me instead of pulling me, and effective ways to get biggie relaxed during bath times. Richard loves dogs but more importantly dogs love Richard. He is someone you can trust to take special care of you furrybaby :)

There is a fenced dog run onsite including other areas nearby for longer walks and training excercises. I typically like to keep my dogs at a distance when other folks approach.

Information Richard C. would like to know about your pet

Does your furry subwoofer have an special needs? Perhaps medical or behavioral? Any particular fear or anxiety issues and what triggers them? Are they friendly or avoidant of other dogs, people, vehicles, a vacuum and other loud home appliances? Any particular natural dog behaviors not allowed at home ex: licking faces, jumping up on people, begging for food etc?

A typical day

Morning walk/potty break after waking up, clean paws, lots of love & hugs, first meal, some stimulating training excercises during the late morning, relax for a few hours between work, perhaps a little photoshoot session at some point, with intermitent breaks outside to explore the sights and smells. When the evening comes we take our last walk before bed and settle in with a Nat Geo type nature documentary.
