Frequently Asked Questions

What is relationship-based dog care?

Relationship-based care focuses on helping your dog feel safe, seen, and understood. Instead of forcing obedience, we build trust, communication, and secure attachment so your dog wants to stay connected. This is how behavior transforms gently from the inside out.

Do you work with dogs who have anxiety or reactivity?

Yes. Many of the dogs we walk or support have big feelings and complicated histories. We move at your dog’s pace, with structure, patience, and regulation practices that support nervous-system stability over time.

What are structured or mindful walks?

These are calm, attuned walks where your dog has space to decompress, explore, and settle — while also practicing safety, boundaries, and connection. It’s not about wearing your dog out. It’s about helping them feel safe enough to rest.

Can you help with welcoming a new dog into my home?

Absolutely. We offer guidance on bonding, routines, emotional safety, decompression, and helping your dog understand they are home now.

How do I get started?

Send us a message or text to schedule a meet-and-greet. We’ll talk about your dog’s history, needs, and what support feels right for your family.

“Dogs reacted to pup and artificial cries the fastest, and baby cries the slowest, while responses to kitten sounds were intermediate.”
