At All Pets Sitting, I believe every dog is unique—and their training should be too. That’s why I design each program to meet your specific goals, your dog’s personality, and your budget. 💲 Pricing: $50 per day, per dog 📹 Daily Progress Updates: You’ll receive video updates each day so you can see exactly how your dog is learning and progressing. 👥 One-on-One Owner Session: At pick-up, we’ll have a hands-on session together to make sure you’re comfortable continuing the tr

An AKC test, like the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test, is designed to evaluate your dog’s behavior and manners in everyday situations. It’s not just about obedience—it’s about being a well-behaved member of the community. During the test, a certified evaluator will guide you and your dog through 10 exercises that assess: Accepting a friendly stranger – Your dog allows a stranger to approach without showing fear or aggression. Sitting politely for petting – Your dog remains cal

Behind the Scenes: A Day in the Life of Our In-Home Dog Boarding, Training & Grooming Business If you’ve ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes at an in-home dog boarding, training, and grooming service—this one’s for you! While our clients see the happy tail wags, clean coats, and well-mannered pups at pick-up time, there’s a whole lot of thoughtful care and attention that goes into every single day to keep your pets safe, clean, and comfortable. Here’s a peek i

Many cat owners believe grooming isn’t necessary because cats groom themselves — but professional grooming plays a vital role in your cat’s comfort, health, and quality of life. From reducing shedding and hairballs to preventing painful matting and nail issues, routine grooming is an important part of responsible cat care. At All Pets Sitting, we provide gentle, cat-focused grooming services designed to keep your cat clean, comfortable, and stress-free — whether they need a s

Grooming is more than just a haircut — it’s a hands-on service that requires close contact, trust, and a deep understanding of each pet’s individual needs. That’s why our Grooming Intake Form is such an essential part of the grooming process. At All Pets Sitting, this form isn’t about paperwork for paperwork’s sake. It’s about providing safe, thoughtful, and personalized grooming care for every pet we work with Every Dog Is Different No two dogs are the same. Breed, age, coat

When it comes to caring for your pet, one size does not fit all. Every dog has their own personality, preferences, medical history, and comfort level — and that’s exactly why a detailed Pet Résumé is so important. At All Pets Sitting, the Pet Résumé isn’t just paperwork. It’s a vital tool that helps us provide safer, more personalized, and more compassionate care for every pet entrusted to us. What Is a Pet Résumé? A Pet Résumé is a comprehensive profile that gives caregivers

Just like people, dogs can suffer from allergies — and they’re far more common than many pet parents realize. Allergies can affect a dog’s skin, ears, digestion, and overall comfort, and if left unmanaged, they can lead to chronic infections or ongoing discomfort. Understanding the signs, causes, and management of allergies is an important part of keeping your dog healthy and happy. What Are Dog Allergies? Allergies occur when a dog’s immune system overreacts to a substance t

When it comes to your dog’s health, weight is one of the most important — and most overlooked — factors. A few extra pounds may not seem like a big deal, especially when attached to a cute face and wagging tail, but maintaining a healthy weight can significantly impact your dog’s comfort, longevity, and overall quality of life. Healthy Weight = Healthier Joints and Mobility Dogs carry their weight on four relatively small joints. Even a slight increase in body weight puts ext

A new year means new beginnings — and at All Pets Sitting, we are thrilled to welcome new clients and their pets into our care! Whether you’re joining us for boarding, grooming, or both, we want your experience (and your pet’s) to be smooth, safe, and stress-free from day one. One of the ways we do that is through our client information forms, which help us get to know your pet as an individual — not just a name on the schedule. Why Our Information Forms Matter Every pet is d

The New Year is a time for fresh starts, better habits, and renewed commitment — and that doesn’t just apply to us. For many dog owners, January brings a clear realization: we want calmer walks, better manners, and a stronger relationship with our dogs. That’s exactly why we created our New Year, New Behavior training program at All Pets Sitting. This program is designed to help dogs and owners reset, refocus, and build lasting skills that improve daily life — not just quick

As temperatures change, many dog owners wonder: Does my dog really need a coat? The answer depends on your dog’s coat type, size, age, health, and the weather conditions. Not all dogs are built the same, and understanding your dog’s natural insulation helps you make the best choice for their comfort and safety. Why a Dog’s Coat Matters A dog’s natural coat plays a crucial role in: Regulating body temperature Protecting skin from wind, moisture, and sun Providing insulation in

At All Pets Sitting, the safety, comfort and well-being of every dog in our care is always our top priority. One of the most important — and often overlooked — parts of safe grooming is understanding that different dog breeds are predisposed to different health conditions, some of which can directly impact the grooming process. Being informed about your dog’s breed tendencies and keeping us updated on any pre-existing conditions helps us provide the safest and most comfortabl

In the world of dog behavior, it’s easy to focus on the obvious. The barking, the pulling, the jumping, the reactivity. We point to the leash, the breed, the past, the “stubbornness,” or the age of the dog. But the truth, one that seasoned trainers learn over and over again, is captured beautifully in this quote: “Most dog problems aren’t really about the dog. You blame the leash, but it’s your hand. You blame the barking, but it’s your chaos. Dogs can’t follow confusion. The

Meet Leilani, a dog in training with us this week. She first came to us terrified of the outdoors. Every sound made her freeze, every new sight felt overwhelming. With patience, structure, and trust building exercises, she’s learning that the world isn’t so scary after all. Each day, her confidence grows and tail wags a little higher. At All Pets Sitting, we believe training isn’t just about obedience it’s about creating confident, well balanced dogs who thrive for a lifetime

After all, your pets are family — and you want to know they’ll be safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. At All Pets Sitting, we completely understand that concern and actually welcome it! We believe transparency builds trust. That’s why we encourage every new client to schedule a meet & greet before their dog’s first stay. During your visit, you ca
