My philosophy is simple. Let dogs be dogs. Now I know some people will see that statement and go “wait, what? That’s obvious,” but it’s not that clear. Dogs need exercise, attention, and a firm hand in order to be completely satisfied in life, and that’s what I offer. I offer exercise in day hikes to well-known trails across the city, awesome play sessions at dog parks, bicycling around the neighborhood, and much more. In terms of attention, dogs in my pack will not feel in the least bit deprived. My house is full of enough love and caring of every furry friend that enters. And in terms of a firm hand, I’ve worked with recognized trainers in New York and afar and have experience and success in working with a host of behavioral issues such as: food aggression, separation anxiety, possessiveness and more. For dogs, going to a new environment is stressful, and in my home, with my pack, they will blend right in and feel like one of the family. Aside from boarding, walking, and training, I’m also an animal advocate and rescuer. I’m a CNR (capture, neuter, release) certified rescuer with the ASPCA and working with them I have spayed and neutered many animals, clients and rescues alike. Alongside this, I have successfully adopted out a number of pets to loving homes, and that is one of my biggest accomplishments.
