For the time being, Our Furry Friends Training is doing extra mopping with our germicide. We don't have large numbers of dogs coming through here and would never allow a sick dog to be here.

For now I would suggest that you do not let your dog drink water here or anywhere from a common water bowl as well as we will skip puppy play time in Kindergarten classes for now just to be on the safe side.

Lately I've been having people reach out and ask my rates. I understand why that's important and there's quite a big range of rates among petsitters.

As a animal owner, I also want to know is the person going to securely close my gates, notice if something's a little off with one of my elderly cats, going to connect and give my dog fun and comfort because I'm away and they'll feel better having somebody they enjoy around. Will they stay over so my beloved cats and dogs have someone to cuddle with?

Will that person call/text me right back when I want to check in on everybody and see how it's going. Do they send me cute pictures when I'm gone. Do they truly care about my animals and keep a good eye on my house, water my plants, bring in my mail.

Do I trust them?

I bring over five Decades of animal ownership and I'm very responsible and caring. While I may cost a little bit more than others, I do a very good job and you can Count On Me When You're Gone!!

I love my dogs and I'm pretty sure that you do too!

However it can be really frustrating when you have a dog who hasn't been trained yet to stop jumping on visitors or to stop pulling on the leash or to not run the other way when you call them!!

(I also work with LIFESTOCK GUARDIAN breeds in issues relating to their jobs ... whether it be a LGD, Farm Guardian or Pet Guardian dog. If you don't want to take them off your farm/property and away from their charges ... I can do an in-home visit with an added travel fee.)

Let me help you sort through how to fix these challenges in a step-by-step approach. Learn how to speak the same language as your dog!

Our Furry Friends initial Training Assessment and Tips appointment is normally $95. If you call this first week of August and prepay for an appointment that you set up for any time in August, you will SAVE a third off... which is over a $30 savings!
