FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new client, I typically begin with background information, routines, and dietary information. Before we even get to training, there are other things to consider - like welfare and well-being of our dogs!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I mentored for a year and a half with a certified dog trainer, then began my own business while continually building on my knowledge through books, videos, seminars/webinars, and so on. I am always learning, especially from different dogs and people! I have over 1,000 hours of hands on experience so far and will eventually be certified in force free/harm free training once I’ve selected the correct certification and prepared for it fully.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started with walking dogs and dog sitting part time while working in social work. I started mentoring with a trainer and things took off from there!
