I have previous professional experience both as a dog daycare worker and professional dog walker (on leash, off leash, group walks) and have been certified in veterinary CPR and first aid. I am a proponent of positive reinforcement, will encourage your pet to engage in polite manners with a reward of your choosing - treats, play time, pets. I am happy to accomodate off leash walks and playtime if you choose, but I expect your pet to have good recall and social manners to avoid problems. I am comfortable using any gear you require for your pet - carriers, flat collar, martingale, harnesses - front or back clipping, ezwalk, step in, etc., flexilead, gentle leader, socks pawz or boots, coats, jackets - I have used all these types of products so feel free to send your pet with whichever gear they prefer! Please note however that I will not use a shock or bark collar, a slip lead or a prong collar - no exceptions.

Should you require something extra, please ask me - I am comfortable giving food or medications, can water your plants or take your pet to an appointment. I can brush if that's something they like, and am happy to give a bath if they end up rolling around in something or get muddy but I cannot groom your pet - no haircuts :) I will also strive to use the commands that your pet is familiar with and am happy to continue working on something that you're trying to teach them - especially puppies! I am familiar with puppy training such as potty training and bite inhibition but please keep in mind I cannot provide obedience lessons.
