Ask to Train while You're Away!

Pet care experience

I am currently working towards becoming a certified dog trainer, and can help your dog with basic obedience and manners. When you're away I can train your dog! Just be sure to ask about it when you book!

Samantha was amazing to my puppy. My puppy has a lot of anxiety and Samantha was so accommodating to her. My puppy, Luna, came home pretty tired. I will be requesting her again in the future. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

My home has dog gates and kennels so depending on your dog's skills they can have all gates open to sleep on the couch while I work or I can have a gate closed for them to lay next to me while I am in meetings. Kennels are used to help give your dog a cozy place to lay down and to help keep them safe if needed.

Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what kinds of behaviors your dog exhibits. Please provide enough food for your dog's stay and text or leave instructions for how often and how much they eat! Let me know if your dog cannot have certain kinds of foods or treats, so that I don't share something that will make them sick! If your dog has favorite toys or chews feel free to bring them! If your dog cannot be left with toys or chews for safety reasons let me know and I'll remove them from the crate while they sleep! I have a large 36"x42" wire kennel with a bed your dog can sleep in! Feel free to bring a comfort item, like a blanket.

A typical day

We go on 1 to 3 walks a day. Have a private dog park in my apartment for off leash play. We also have a variety of enrichment toys and activities for alone play, like a wobble kong, snuffle mat, licky toys, and automatic toys. We have set activities to practice good manners like waiting to be served food, settling away from people while they eat, structured feeding times, and treats on walks to praise loose leash walking or reducing reactivity.

I work from home and can schedule time to walk and play with your dog between meetings and during lunch breaks! I will always be home so there is always an eye and ear on your dog. We go on 3 long walks a day and for puppies or potty training dogs we can go on frequent short walks each day.
