House sitting for “spicy” dogs and Board & Train in San Francisco, positive-reinforcement only.
- Dog sitting: your dog stays at home while you travel, and receives overnight care by an R+ professional; anxious and reactive dogs are welcome
- Board & Train: immersive training program on weekdays while your dog stays at the trainer’s home; for the weekend, your dog goes home to you so you can enjoy time together
- Train while you travel: if your trip is longer than a week, you can combine dog sitting and training
Dog sitting at your place
Your dog stays at your home while you travel. Staying at home is especially helpful for dogs with behavioral issues that can’t handle much change or require extra care due to reactivity or anxiety.
Dog sitting includes overnight care at the client’s home, enriching morning and evening walks, and extra time during the day, ensuring your dog is not left alone more than they are used to.
Dog sitting only:
– $250 / day
Special rates: puppies (350$), dogs who can’t be left alone (500$)
Dog sitting & training:
– $350 / day
New clients require an Evaluation session: 70$ / 30 minutes
Short stays: check-in / check-out around midday
Long stays (7 days+): flexible check-in and check-out
Sitting during holidays: 20% surcharge to the total bill
Board & Train
Family-style boarding & training program for dogs who need to polish their manners around the house, public skills, or need intensive help with reactivity.
Your dog will stay at the trainer’s home from Monday to Friday and receive multiple training sessions and training walks. On Friday, your dog goes home. Optional: if you prefer your dog to sleep at home, we can arrange pickup in the morning and drop-off in the evening.
You receive a short progress session at check-in or check-out, so you can implement all the trained skills right away. By the end of the month, you receive one long transfer session, and you learn how to implement all the new skills with your dog.
It is family-style boarding; your dog will become a part of the family. For safety reasons, some of the dogs may be expected to sleep at night in the kennel or a play pen.
