Safety, trust & environment

At the time of writing, I am living in an apartment complex and do not wish to be rude to my neighbors. That being the case, I cannot accept any furry friends into my home for the time being.

Information Tarik E. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with animals with a plethora of temperaments and comfort levels, and the number one risk with in home visits is aggressive reactivity. Even if it feels like you're out of options, the chances are I can help with those issues. But only if you are open and honest about your pup and willing to acknowledge the challenges that growing out of that provide behavior will provide.

A typical day

Whether it's children or animals, I am a goofball teacher through and through! Any time your pups spend with me with inevitably become your pup learning that they can follow instructions AND have fun!

Pet care experience

From the trenches that is kennel care, to daycare, to vet care, to full on dog training, I have over 7 years of direct professional experience! Truth is I'm just a dorky dog nerd who loves what he's doing and is doing his best to build a life out of that passion. If you're looking for a cheery goof who will put his all into cultivating a healthy relationship between you and your fur babies, by all means, don't hesitate to shoot me a message!

Tarik was absolutely awesome with my babies! It is very clear that he is no stranger to dogs. During our meet and greet, he was informative of his experience as a dog trainer and he asked all of the right questions. Both of my dogs were immediately comfortable around him, which was a pleasant surprise. He took great care of them and even spent time playing with them, which they loved. I would definitely recommend Tarik for peace of mind and assurance your babies will be taken care of!

Tarik was AMAZING. Our dogs were very very well taken care of. Cannot wait to book him again. We have a somewhat reactive dog and she can be sensitive to new people in our house. He didn’t even blink an eye. He knew how to work with our German Shepard and treated them the best I have seen. Thank you Tarik!
