Grooming Services
In-house and On-Location! Wherever your pup feels most comfortable.
*In order to give your dog the best experience possible, please understand that if the groom cannot be completed due to your dog’s distress, we will reschedule for another day to complete the groom. If grooming is still not possible and we are unable to complete at least 50% of the groom, service will not be charged.
Training Services
Book an assessment, where we discuss the needs of your furry-pal before booking your training sessions.
Assessment sessions allow me to better understand your dog’s specific qualities, and their human’s every-day interactions. This allows me to better build a training plan that suits you and your furry companion.
Puppy Basics (2 mo – 1 yr)
A new fluffy addition to the house is coming and we want to be prepared! Let’s cover all our Basics Needs and get started on some basic training that will create the groundwork for future successes!
Adolescent (8 mo – 3 yrs)
Don’t wait for bad habits to form! The adolescent years are full of opportunities! Continue training so we can be secure when we go on our adventure with furry companion, or even to just take a walk around the block!
Elder Care (8+ years)
Our faithful companion has reached their Golden Years. Let’s learn a little about how to give them a comfortable years. This course is for handling situations and how to deal with difficulties that come with the final years with our dogs.
First Puppy Starter & General Care
First time Pawrents? No worries! Here is a course that takes you through all the in’s and out’s of taking care of a puppy and prepare them for success!
First times can be scary, but you don’t have to be unprepared!
Behaviour Modifying
We can run into trouble from time here and there with our dogs. From frequent barking, lunging on walks, jumping on tables, sometimes our dogs pick up on behaviours they might not have done previous… or have been encouraged before! Let’s work on these little challenges together!
K9 Enrichment / Tricks
Enrich your dog’s life with simple exercises and tricks! Physical exertion is not the only way which our dogs interact with the environment (though an important one!)
Let’s look at the other ways which dogs can exercise while also increasing our bond – through tricks!
Grooming / Hygiene Prep
Teeth Brushing and Nail trimming are a pain. Taking our dog to their vet or groomer can be even harder! This course is designed to prepare you and your dog for the experience of examination, handling, and covers healthcare at home!
My training is focused on heightening the Handler’s ability to Identify and Respond to their dog’s communication. We work patiently to increase Duration, Distance, and Distraction, thus allowing our dog to carry that behavior in all instances.
My style of dog training focuses on reinforcement of wanted behaviours, and diminish unwanted behaviors through Criteria, Consequences, and Consistency.
Sessions are on a weekly basis, though flexibility is possible. Make sure to book your classes at least a week in advance.
Cancellations must be confirmed 24 hours in advance for a refund.
No Refund Available after Session time has began, even if client does not appear for the session.
