Walks with a trainer = always building good manners while making sure your dog gets the most out of their walks
Provide appropriate outlets for energy so you can come home to a dog that hasn’t been sleeping all day.
Not all walks are equal! Mental enrichment and easy training games tire out their brains as well as their bodies, and also builds confidence in nervous dogs.
Walks are more than just exercise – they’re a vital opportunity to engage in enriching, natural behaviours in the outside world.
Already training? Let me know what you’re working on so we can keep things moving forward.
Enriched Dog Walks
Neighbourhood Walk - Straight from the front door, we take advantage of the local area through multiple routes & long-leash walks through fields/parks. We can begin to lay foundations to improve on recall, pulling, reactivity or any other behaviours with positive reinforcement during this time, but there is no formal training session.
25-30mins or 45-60mins
Forest Walk - First and foremost - car! We take a quick drive down to leashed trails for a long leash romp through the woods (sorry, no off leash adventures!). The uneven terrain and new environment/smells make it mentally enriching all on its own, but we will also be practicing recalls and check ins. Includes post-outing clean off.

Pets in Mind offers sliding scale pricing in order to make my services as accessible as possible.
Please contact to discuss available price range -
The sliding scale is a tool that allows for a product or service to be purchased at multiple price points based on your financial situation. This allows those who need help to have the chance to receive it. It seeks to address the systemic inequalities of class in our culture.
It relies simply on truthfulness, respect, and accountability. I do not ask for income verification or proof. I trust you to be honest with me.
Please note that sliding scale programming is not a simple “discount.” If you are able to pay for full-price services, please do. The highest dollar cost reflects the true cost of the service. This would be the price in the absence of a sliding scale.
The middle cost reflects the acknowledgement that paying the full cost would prevent some from being able to access services, but who do not find themselves reflected in either highest or lowest.
If you are struggling to conquer debt or build savings or move away from paycheck to paycheck living but have access to steady income
Are able to continue meeting basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, child care, etc.
If you can ask others for financial support, such as family members, partners, or friends, please consider using those personal resources before you use the resources of the sliding scale and limit opportunities for others.
The bottom cost represents an honest acknowledgment that there are folks whose economic circumstances would prevent them from attaining services if there was not a deliberate opportunity made for them to access them at a cost that is reflective of their economic realities.
If you struggle to maintain access to needs such as health care, housing, food, child care
Are living paycheck to paycheck/in significant debt
Please be mindful that if you purchase a price at the lowest end of the scale when you can truthfully afford the higher prices, you are limiting access to those who truly need the financial flexibility!
