Description:

For several years, I have been providing dog training and pet sitting services. Establishing trust and mutual respect is crucial in forming a loving and rewarding relationship with your pet, and through consistent effort and patience, success can be achieved. My aim is to help owners comprehend and train their dogs so they can have a happy, self-assured, obedient, and well-behaved companion.

TRAINING SERVICES:

I use positive reinforcement through treats in my training. For other training methods, please look for another trainer. I specialize in working with puppies and young dogs, and my ultimate goal is to equip you with the necessary skills so that your dog can become a Canine Good Citizen (CGC). I offer basic training, including leash walking, or customized training based on your specific needs. My experience extends to working with senior and deaf dogs, and managing behaviors such as separation anxiety, nipping & biting, and house training.

PET SITTING SERVICES:

I offer pet sitting services for dogs, cats, and birds, and I take my time during visits, treating your pet as one of my own. I provide daily updates through texts, including pictures and videos to keep you informed about your pet's progress. Additionally, I offer services to senior pets with special needs and can administer medication. I adore spending time playing with my furry friends, and I have two pets of my own.

I have just adopted a dog and the person who assisted me provided clear and concise instructions, offering valuable guidance for a new dog owner. Her efforts were commendable, as the initial training was highly successful. If I require further assistance in the future, I will undoubtedly contact her again.

As first-time dog owners, we acquired Rocky, a six-month-old golden retriever. A couple of months ago, we sought the assistance of Debbie for puppy training and advice, both of which proved highly beneficial. Debbie proved herself to be an excellent trainer with an abundance of knowledge and patience.

During a state of urgent need, where our cats were the last priority, Debbie stepped up and delivered exceptional service. Our feline companions were enamored with her, including our typically indifferent cat. Debbie displayed kindness and patience towards them and kept us up to date with pictures after each visit. She went beyond our expectations by collecting our mail and cleaning up after any messes. We are truly grateful for her assistance and will not hesitate to contact her for our future travel plans.

Debbie's services were exceptional! She arrived on time and took care of all our dog's requirements. She displayed impressive expertise and acted very professionally. We strongly endorse her and plan to engage her services again. Furthermore, we also employed her to provide dog training, as she is also a seasoned trainer!

Debbie was absolutely amazing! She provided an extremely productive one-hour session where she imparted valuable techniques for training our 10-week-old Australian Shepherd. Our furry friend showed remarkable progress in the initial hour and responded well to Debbie's guidance. Additionally, Debbie proved to be immensely supportive and knowledgeable.
