My passion is animals. Not just petting and cuddling but enriching. Whether it be in the form of snuggles or training. I aim to give my very best to them all. I have been fortunate to have been employed in the world of pets over the last decade. I have also been incredibly fortunate to have been given an opportunity to train with an extraordinary dog trainer/behaviourist as well. From my time with a Pet food store to my time within a shelter, each of my positions have provided me with a vast amount of invaluable knowledge that I can put to good use in everyday care for your pets. Which leaves you with a worry free mind set and a breath of fresh air that your pets are in the best hands outside of your own.

Structured (Walk & Train):
A walk with little to no interruptions. It simply means that I lead the walk, and the dog follows. A structured walk is a key element to achieving a balanced dog. These types of walks are more intense, physically challenging and mentally stimulating. * Implementing and or reinforcing proper leash etiquette * Redirecting unwanted walking behaviours * Rewarding with praise and treats for displaying wanted behaviour * Building confidence for new pups and under socialized dogs * ( “SOCIALIZING” has more than one meaning in dog training....not just making friends with other dogs and people. Socializing means building confidence for your dog in the big world. IE: “spooked” behaviour when approaching or being approached by buses/transports/construction equipment.)
-Great for newly adopted puppies and dogs
