Currently not able to accept new dogs until Q4 2024

My aim is to specialize my work with anxious, timid or reactive dogs through walks. I work freelance as a canine & feline nutritionist, content creator and my full time job is taking care of dogs in my family's home. I am currently pursuing a certification in Animal Behavior Psychology, and hope to meet as many different pet personalities out there!

My training method is in accordance with the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants (IABB), which I am still a trainee of. I am in regular communication with a certified dog behaviour specialist who guides me along the way. Most weekday mornings and evenings are flexible for me. I'm happy to take Saturday jobs but I try to avoid Sundays.

The first meet and greet is complimentary. It gives us the opportunity to get to know each other, and for me to assess on whether I can actually commit to your dog.

Unless your dog has special requirements, a typical walk would last 30mins - 45mins and would include these services: (1) spending time with your dog so that he/she is comfortable with me (2) a video of your dog's interaction with me taken in a safe place (3) a report of your dog after the walk.

For timid dogs, additional time may be required to gain their trust before we start the walk so I seek your cooperation to work with me.

Dog Daycare services are from 8am - 6pm.

For Daycare & Boarding, a meet shall be arranged at my premises and I'll be able to give you a tour of the area. We have a spacious garden for dogs to run around, and aircon can be provided for dogs that require it. Do drop me a message if you'd like to see photos/videos of the dogs in my home.

A trial stay (1 working day) is required for dogs before we commit to them staying for an extended period of time. 

My past experience of pet care would be for cats, dogs (of all sizes), and small animals (i.e rabbits). This is usually for family and friends. I take the extra effort for their pets to feel comfortable with me before the actual day of pet sitting or walking commences. This also allows me to ensure I notice any nuances that are required to report back to their owners. Pet walks wouldn't only involve walking your dog but also mentally engaging them.
