Animal lover & Balanced dog trainer
Pet care experience
I’ve always loved and have been devoted to animal care. I volunteered at a Virginia German Shepherd rescue for a number of years. Helping hard to adopt (so-called unadoptable) pups due anxiety, aggression, etc. before moving. I’ve studied different methods of dog training from about 2010 to present. I’ve been assisting family members and friends with their pets for almost as long as I’ve been alive.. I’m not so young Lol 😅🤦♂️. If your dog is in need of training, let me know what problems you may be facing, or a desired level of training and I’ll see if it can be addressed/achieved during their stay. I train dogs from basic to advanced. From as young as 8 weeks to any amount of years!
Reviews
Troy was great with my german shepherd! He is a very high energy boy. Troy was communicative through out the whole process and I was provided with pictures through out the day. Will definitely be booking again.
Great experience! Big fenced yard. The dogs had a great time
Troy was an amazing puppy sitter. He sent videos and pictures regularly, updated me on how she was socializing with his dogs and how she was eating and was just overall really good with her. He even taught her a few tricks in the few short days he had her. I think she's in love with his dog Rio - they played tirelessly and he had so much patience with them both (as they are both still under 2.) I will not be using anyone else for Starla!
Troy was fantastic! Our pup has lots of energy and can play a little rough with other dogs. Troy did a wonderful job of controlling the play with his very well-trained dog. He also worked on basic training and leash walking with our dog at our request. He sent pics and updates daily. Will definitely be boarding with Troy again.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced yard for the pups to play in. Playtime is monitored. I bring the dogs in for naps especially on warmer days. fresh water will always be provided. If your pet is good on walks, I sometimes like to take the pups on a pack walk (with your permission). It’s a great way introduce new dogs to the pack, and it’s a excellent form of physical and mental exercise! If they have any special medical needs please let me know. If they have a bed they like to sleep on or you prefer for them to be kenneled, lease bring those items. Otherwise any spot they find comfortable here is fine with me lol! Everybody gets treats! That is of course if you allow me to give them to your pup! I use all natural items. Lastly, please make sure all your little guys are up-to-date on vaccinations!

I’m currently on a long vacation from work, and I’m usually home relaxing so I’m always available. From Friday to Sunday I do take clients dogs for training, that are not necessarily here for boarding or daycare.
