Do you offer in-home pet sitting?

At this time, Paws N Recreation LLC does not offer drop in care or in-home pet sitting. We apologize for the inconvenience.

What Methods Do You Train With?

At Paws N Recreation LLC the focus is not on labels, but on what motivates the dog and achieves desired results.

We are proud to have built our training style without the use of popular dog training tools such as choke, prong, electronic training collars or physical manipulation. We have established a style of training that strengthens cooperation and builds a willingness to engage through the thoughtful and deliberate use of toys, food, natural breed specific tendencies and innate character trait of the individual dog.

We use clear and concise communications to decrease frustration and optimize performance. We understand all the quadrants of R+, R-, P+, P-, but choose to focus on intentional applications of R+ and understand when the strategic and calculated use of R- and P- is warranted, and we strive to avoid all intentional use of P+.

If this description of our training method was not sufficient, please contact us for further clarification. We strive for transparency and want you to feel confident in our methods just as much as we are.

Will you work with Clients who train differently than you?

Yes! We will meet you where you are in your training journey. We tailor our sessions to use the methods we rely on and our goal is that we can teach you to confidently work with your dog in the same way.
