    “I will make your dog sit and listen”

    I love training dogs. I spent 5 years in the circus and make dogs sit, lay down, roll over, dance between your legs when you walk and many other fun things. It takes time but I can help you create the best behaving dog you’ll ever own.

    “At your service!”

    Hello, I'm Walter. I’ve been around big dogs since a child so naturally learned to train them at a young age. I mainly focus on reactivity and own 2 German Shepherds that I train myself since they were pups. Taking care of dogs is something I’ve done mostly my whole life. I absolutely love getting to know them. I can't wait to meet your companion and I hope to make a new dog friend!

    “Experienced, fun, loving, intuitive dog whisperer!”

    Hello Paw Moms & Pops! The pups call me Titi!! I am their best friend and Auntie Elder. I have 12 years of experience as a dog-care professional. I travel between Queen Creek, AZ and Agoura Hills, CA with my own power pack of dachshunds. We spend time driving back and forth between both states to enjoy the blazing sun in AZ and the tubular waves of the Pacific Ocean in CA. I’m a loving and responsible, reliable and radically-transparent, communicative and energetic dog-care expert! Some call me a dog whisperer 😍. It is always an honor to meet your angel(s) and spend some QT with them. It is my privilege to work for them as their Human Escort every day.

    “Your dog’s new best friend!!!”

    My home has never been complete without a dog or cat to play with and nurture. I currently care for my precious two year old cat, Belly. I'm an up-beat, self-motivated, and organized care-taker. I prioritize reliable communication and commitment. I'm an avid runner, so I'm able to help your pet(s) use up their energy and stay happy while you're away! I'm open to walking dogs in any weather, so I'll be there in rain or snow! Also, I have worked with cats and Guinea pigs as well! Hehehehehheheheh
