Dog Trainer and Dog Walker

Before becoming a mom, I lived dogs and learning dog training. It was my passion. Certified with 16hrs continued training, apprenticeships, 1yr experience at a large veterinarian hospital, certified in dog first aid, studied dog psychology, along with several of my own on the side dogs I have personally owned and trained or helped others to train- to say I have years of experience is more than just helping friends and family along the way. I was on the way to becoming a full time dog trainer before having children put a pause on it. Now that my children are getting older, I am ready to get back at it and start sharing my passion and experience with others again. There is nothing like being able to help others understand and know how to work with their fur babies better. Seeing the light and joy in both the dog and the owners eyes once a new skill is unlocked or a problem is resolved or simply helping someone out by getting in an extra walk for their pup while they are at work, I enjoy all of it! Age has no boundaries on learning! I have worked with puppies all the way up to seniors! Pure breeds of all kinds with so many mixed rescues too! No dog is beyond change or learning! If you have any further questions about my abilities, please feel free to reach out! I am happy to answer any and all questions or do a meet and greet. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your babies as I have cared for mine!

Teresa is a kind, patient, and compassionate friend to all animals, but dogs in particular! She is so incredibly good with pups and it seems like dogs are immediately at-ease in her presence. She strikes me as the kind of person who is always excited to spend the day with a new dog friend—whether playing, training, or just keeping them company. I trust her as a safe and knowledgeable dog professional and think that you should, too!

Teresa was absolutely wonderful with our dog. She cared for him in a loving, responsible manner ensuring that he had time to play, run, and do his business. Our pup also had some anxiety about being in his crate, and she was wonderful at helping him get accustomed to being crated when needed! I cannot recommend Teresa enough. She is fabulous and will take great care of your dog.

I highly recommend Teresa! She’s been an absolute lifesaver for me and my pup, Benny! When she watched my pup, she made sure he was not only cared for, but happy, comfortable, and so loved! She’s incredibly reliable, communicative, kind, accommodating, and has a natural way with dogs. Benny always came back relaxed and well taken care of, which gave me so much peace of mind! Her family was so gentle and loving to Benny. I couldn’t have asked for more!

She helped me with inviting a new puppy into my home and adjusting to life with a dog .

Teresa is responsible, caring, on time, and an animal lover. I would fully trust leaving your pet in her care. She will treat them as her own.

What triggers your dog? Don’t hide things to make them more appealing please. For their best interest I need to know what bothers them: kids, other dogs, certain people or things, are they food aggressive or do they have food aversions or allergies. The more information I have the better I can help them and you.
