Safety, trust & environment

I will treat your babies just as I would my own. I have a very wide knowledge of dog handling skills, and am able to care for dogs that have human or dog reactivity and/or aggression. I understand and know how to operate a wide variety of training tools such as a prong collar, halter, slip lead, and e collar! I always carry treats to ensure a fun time and keep engagement with distractions around! For doggy day care/boarding I have baby gates and playpens to ensure safety and keep an eye on your pups. I have a large fenced in back yard for your babies to run around and play in! I always feed all animals separately, and I crate and rotate my own dogs to prevent overstimulation and to allow the dogs to be able to take a break from playing! I have handled dogs from 5 pounds all the way to 160 and my dogs are both pullers on leash so I am very accustom to that😂!!

Information Riley C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about your pets temperament, prey drive, dietary needs/restrictions, allergies, and activity level. I would like to know about any triggers your dog may have to ensure their safety. I would love to ensure the most enjoyable experience for your babies!

A typical day

I love to take walks around the neighborhood or around local parks. I enjoy using enrichment games for treats and food, especially for high energy pups! I will make sure your fur babies are showered in love<3

We came home from a nine day trip to our senior kitty happy and healthy. Thank you, Riley! She gave him his daily meds and made his food just the way he likes it. Pictures shows he got his required daily cuddles, too.
