Insured Professional Dog Trainer
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Samantha Jones and I am a a professional dog trainer. I provide in home boarding, doggy daycare and walks. All service will be training based and will give your pup a chance to learn new skills during their stay! I specialize in dog socialization and manners. I love to help dogs come out of their shell and become the best version of themselves. I value the level of trust it takes to leave your furry family members somewhere they love when you cannot be with them and treat the pups like my own during their stay. I am comfortable with all different types of sizes and personalities! I can't wait to meet your furry friend! Training Based Services: Boarding and Daycare: Dogs will be exposed to healthy social groups with other dogs, leash manners will be assessed and practiced using a slip leash, and crate manners will be assessed and impulse control will be improved upon while asking dogs to wait for their turn to come out and play while also using the crate as a safe place for dogs to turn their brains off. Walks: Structured walks will provide your dog a chance to not only burn off energy physically, but to also work their brain. Dogs all shapes and sizes can benefit from improving their leash manners. It’s a fact, dogs that are enjoyable to walk get invited to go more places with their owners! Nail Trims & Baths: Cooperative care is something I am passionate about and have seen so many dogs struggle with having their basic needs met (proper nail/ear care, grooming, and baths). This can be a stressful situation when dogs are not able to progress at their own pace. Add any of these services on to their time they will already be spending with me! I can go at their pace to make sure they are comfortable. It is hard to act your best when you do not feel your best! A low stress home environment and can make all the difference in these situations as opposed to back to back appointments that need to stay on schedule with a vet or groomer. **If you have specific training goals you would like to work on during your pups stay, please let me know and we can put together a game plan! **I do not turn dogs away for behavioral reasons but do require owners are up front and honest about any dangerous behaviors for both the the dog’s and my own safety. ‼️‼️**I typically have more than one dog with me at a time. I schedule my day based off of my already confirmed appointment times. I can typically be pretty flexible IF a needed change is communicated with as much notice as possible. Please respect that I offer these services out of my home and do not show up outside of scheduled appointment times.**‼️‼️ Requirements for booking: -Up to date vaccination records - Completed questionnaire (will be provided through a message or can be emailed)
Reviews
Samantha is the best! I boarded my 2 dogs with her for an out of state trip. She sent pictures and kept my boys happy and safe. It great to know I can count on her when I need to travel.
Samantha thank you so much for taking care of my lil guy!! He was so tired when he got home he went straight to sleep. I feel I have found a reliable caretaker for my boy. Someone who will take care of him the way I would. Thank you for giving me a safe place for my puppy!!!
Samantha is great with my two spoiled dogs. She watched my boys overnight and it went great! I highly recommend her services.
Zoso had a great time with Samantha. Samantha is a lovely, kind young lady who was very gentle with Zoso. Thank you for caring for our baby boy.

I have a large secure outdoor yard and indoor playroom for the pups to play and learn in! Dog safety is very important to me. As a professional dog trainer, I am able to read dog body language to pick up on when dogs are nervous or uncomfortable and make adjustments to help them relax in their home away from home!
