I’m a certified obedience trainer

Pet care experience

Hello! I have trained puppies and dogs for basic obedience and shows for 15 years. I started as a mentee at 9 with a certified show dog runner and trainer for 1.5 years and started training my neighbor’s dogs as practice. I have since started boarding various pets throughout college up until now. As a pet owner, I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for and be responsible for our family members - I’m definitely that person and will ensure the upmost respect for you and your pets! I like to give my clients and their pets the time to get to know me and feel like they’re making the right choice. I like to keep everything transparent and open for discussion. I live in a large two-story home with a fenced backyard and plenty of running space. I believe in lots of mental and physical stimulation to keep all animals in my care happy and healthy.

Rona has watched my two shibas multiple times now. Her home is spacious with a large backyard with grass. It is evident that my dogs enjoy staying with her because when I drop them off they are really excited, which gives me peace of mind while I’m apart from them. Rona is professional, communicative, and very experienced with dogs. So glad we found her. Highly recommend! :)

Nice person, but she sat my dog and then cancelled last minute before the second day in a row.

Rona is super sweet with my Chihuahua! She’s a very nervous dog but she took to Rona immediately and is always very happy but tired when I get home! I’m glad I’ve found a sitter I can trust in my home and with my baby. Thanks for always being an awesome sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

My home is pet proofed from any toxic plants, food is kept out of reach, and my home is treated for pests and fleas monthly. I also have dog gates in case I ever need to section a part of the home off. I don’t like to use dog crates in my home and like to let pets have a lot of freedom and space to feel their most comfortable.

I work from home at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to get 10k steps a day for my own health and make it a point to go for a 2 hour walk a day and love having a companion there with me :)
