Professional dog trainer and lover

Pet care experience

Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Ever since I was a child they have been my constant companions and as an adult my profession. As a teenager and into my early twenties I worked as a dog walker and sitter. I was then hired as a handler at a doggy daycare facility. I was promoted to manager and I ran that facility for five years. During this time I also apprenticed with local dog trainers. I left the daycare when I decided I wanted to seriously pursue dog training. I spent a year in Texas at a trainers academy. I now own and operate a dog training company, through out Frederick MD. I also manage the local pet store. As a trainer I have made a career out of providing excellent and knowledgeable care for dogs and your pup will be no-exception. As a dog lover I will provide the same care and attention to your dog that I provide to mine. I share my home with a six year old pit bull mastiff and a two year old cattle dog. Nina and Harvey are demonstration and socialization dogs for my company and are extremely well behaved. But, they aren't just working dogs, they are my family and I love and treat them as such. I will treat your dogs the same way I treat mine...with loving care and attention combined with the experience of years working in the dog industry.

Sarah took great care of our Buster, showing him love and fun! He was a happy puppy on our return and had a blast with Sarah's other dogs. We love the care she took with our home and our puppy!

Sarah's love for animals is apparent when you see her interact with them. Her expansive knowledge of dog behavior is impressive and I know this from taking my dog Riggins to her amazing obedience classes. Riggins gets so excited when he sees her. She is responsible, reliable, and she truly loves dogs. Not only would I trust her with my pets in a heartbeat, I would consider myself or anyone else lucky to have her care for their pets. I can say with total confidence that I highly recommend her as a dog sitter!
