Pet care plus!
Pet care experience
I've raised and trained dogs since I was 10 in 4-H. Now I'm only 2 semesters away from completing school to gain my certificate as a service and therapy dog trainer! I've worked training seeing eye dogs for the blind, have been a veterinary assistant, and currently breed Boxers and Toy Australian Shepherds. My 15 year old daughter is on the same path and is my partner when it comes to training all of our dogs. She has trained her own boxer from the beginning and he has earned his canine good citizen title as well as placing with mostly champion titles in 4-H! We don't just take care of dogs, we train and make them better!
About Sylvanna M.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We have dogs, cats, goats, and a horse. Our dogs all live inside. We do use routine and have strict rules for manners. We believe in well behaved dogs and strive to teach all our dogs that not everything they want to do is ok. Positive reinforcement is first and foremost, followed by verbal discipline when needed. It's ok to say no to your dog. Our dogs get tons of exercise whether its running with the ATV, playing with toys, going to daycare, or playing with each other. We believe a tired dog is a good dog.
Information Sylvanna M. would like to know about your pet
We can work with pets of any size or breed. However, unfortunately aggressive dogs will not be accepted as clients. My goal is to work with younger dogs teaching them proper behaviors before they get out of control. Senior pets that need some special one on one are a personal favorite as well.
A typical day
Walking and working on obedience is tiring both physically and mentally. We play fetch, work on our obedience skills, and maybe even attempt some tricks!

Availability
I do work outside the home but am available evenings to help with other pups. I'm available most days including weekends. We have pretty open availability until summertime. Our family does travel some but I will do my best to help care for others when needed.
