HELLO!  

And welcome to a different kind of dog care.

I provide Premium Boutique Dog Care Services for clients wanting more personalized care and trusted expertise when it comes to their companion. 

I believe that dogs benefit from experiences that are designed for them, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.  This means smaller groups, thoughtful temperament matching, and ongoing training from an experienced professional. In order to create safe and harmonious social experiences, all dogs are pre-screened before joining any of our small group walks or adventure groups.
 

 

I have been Certified as a Dog Trainer and Behaviour Counsellor since 2008 by

the San Francisco Academy for Dog Trainers (known as the 'Harvard' of Dog Training), and hold a Masters Degree in Counselling (for humans). Much of my life has been colourfully lived in the company of dogs, dogs of all sorts, and I can honestly say that I've learned something from each and every one. 

 

In addition to providing in-home dog training, I have taught a variety of group training classes, fostered and adopted multiple dogs, consulted with local rescue organizations, volunteered as a pet therapy team, and received training in pet first aid. ​

 

With almost 20 years of experience in the field and a long-time dog owner myself, I'm well versed in the needs of canines and pet parents. I'm proud to volunteer my time with Elderdog Canada and am committed to enriching the lives of our companion animals and the people who love them.
