I need to start with a disclaimer. Pecora pet was NOT hired because Tiffany is a good friend. I DID…read moreNOT KNOW Her when I hired them therefor this review is 100% business and has nothing to do with friendship. Our friendship came about as we hot to know each other. We bonded. That being said friendship is friendship and business is business. My good friend Tiffany Pecora and her mom Judy Baker Pecora own Pecora's Pet Care, LLC. Tiff took care of D&G while we were away. Let me tell u.. If u need pet sitting USE THEM!! Tiffany is a good friend but treated this like a job separate from our friendship. The pups stayed on schedule, had walks, lots of cuddling. I got pics & updates. She stripped my bed and put on new sheets and pillow cases and made the bed beautifully! She folded all blankets (offered to wash them all but I stopped her OCD lol!) picked up all toys and the house was SO CLEAN! It made coming home stress free. Whether u need a pet walked, let out, boarding, or overnights at ure house USE THEM!! We also used them daily the 1st year of Gia's life. Let me tell you they were saints. Gia peed in her crate almost daily. They would clean the crate, clean her then walk them both without complaint. We asked Gia be hand fed her lunch (we were teaching her to take food gently as well as practice small commands like "sit" & "stay" ) well she did that too (I have security cameras that no one can see and I saw her doing every single thing I asked of her) I felt like I hit some kind of doggy jackpot!! They are the reason I can go out late, go on vacation, know if there's an emergency they will handle it and I never have to stress! I also recommended them to my SIL. A older friend of hers was standing beside in a hospice as his wife was dying. He knew it would be a week or so and HATED leaving her bedside but had a dog at home. My SIL contacted them (Pecora) and explained his dilemma. They moved things, worked extra hours and gave the man updates on his dog so he could stay by his wife and focus on her. He later mentioned that they were a godsend. He would never have forgiven himself if he left and she passed but because of Pecora Pet that wasn't going to be a worry. I swear you will rest easy while away and when u return!

She goes on an off leash pack walk each week which gives her great exercise, socialization, and practice with obedience.

I recommend this place for all pups, especially ones working on their reactivity.

Apeiron Pups Dec.2021 We have known Aaron/Apeiron pups for…read moremany, many years. He began a friendship with our eldest son and we as a family came to know and love him. When he was a teen/young adult, He would house/Dog sit for us! Aaron was awesome with our dogs. We had some anxious and bad behavioral barking and within a very short time with them he had their full attention. Aaron very patiently worked with them outside every time he came bye! Our house had more obedient dogs and a great deal more peace! We then got a golden, named Boomer that loved Aaron! After many years of growing, bonding and working Boomer, he was so well behaved and obedient! Fast forward 10 years, Boomer grew older and slower. Although he was still silly, eager to please and happy to see us and Aaron too, it was apparent to all of us he was in severe pain! After few visits to our Vet, medications and several test later, we then got the Devastating news that Boomer, was ravaged with cancer. It was time to say our peaceful goodbyes! He was such a good, good boy! This was one of the most difficult times in our lives, saying goodbye to our family member Boomer! Aaron came to pay his condolences to all of us! He knew our love for all of our dogs, especially Boomer! So little over a year after Boomers passing, Aaron/Apeiron pups personally matched us to one of his pups that was most like Boomers personality and our family needs. This past November 2021, much to our surprise, in walks our dear sweet Aaron with a puppy! A sweet, blonde, little girl who we named Presley! As young as she was she was already so smart! She is the perfect fit to our family! And of course, Aaron/Apeiron pups has checked in with us several times to see how our training, obedience and health/growth were coming along! We are so grateful and cannot say enough about Aaron/Apeiron pups, the level of his professionalism and knowledge he has displayed to us for many, many years! In "hind site" we should have know back then, when Aaron was a young man, that he was our very own "dog whisper!" Love Always, your family in Salisbury! The Workman's

Listen, I'm not sure where to start because there's so much I want to cover regarding OLK9's Day…read moreCamp Program. First things first, Craig [Martin] is a Rockstar trainer. Period. Our very first interaction was great...his energy was wonderful...he did not disappoint! He was very methodical with his approach...explaining every step of the process...very engaging...constant updates of the Boyz progress...videos, photos...wait! The photos that I received were Ahhhhhhh-mazing, I mean impressive...only to learn that he's a photographer as well...but I digress. The Boyz are spoiled and I have no shame in stating this...*smile*. But they needed to learn manners. I have two large and very strong Standard Poodles - Mr. Brown and Max. They're extremely smart, pretty obedient in the house, but a huge challenge on walks...my poor dog walker. I wanted to be able to take them anywhere without the extended conversations of sit, stay, what are you doing? you know better... etc. At any rate, I'd been following OLK9 Maryland for some time online. I knew that training for two dogs was going to be a budget buster. Thankfully, I was able to take advantage of the "Black Friday" or "Cyber Monday" (can't remember which one it was). I cannot say enough about the great experience I had...the Boyz were happy to see Craig each day which was a HUGE relief for me. Yes, additional work/training on my part is required...to me that's a no brainer. As a responsible pet owner, I want to make sure that there is consistency and an expectation that my Boyz are well behaved and well mannered. Which means I have to do the work. Funny, as I was driving home from our final session, I was so tempted to take them on a short walk because I knew it would be enjoyable. But decided to wait until morning... I'm so excited to be able to have an enjoyable walk with these guys... less scolding and more bonding. Well worth the time and financial commitment. Thank you OLK9 Maryland for bringing additional joy to our home... things are definitely more "manageable". I'm really looking forward to our walks, especially since there will be NO more pulling! Can't wait to be able to take them to the "brick and mortar" with me once it's open! "Life Changing K9 Training"

I wasted over $1,000 to unknowingly abuse my dog through Off Leash K9. I sought help because my dog…read morewas reactive toward other dogs, loud vehicles, and people. I was desperate to help my dog and myself and Off Leash K9 had good reviews. What these folks didn't tell me was that my dog's reactivity, what I thought was outright aggression, was actually fear - that she was scared of all of these things and trying to protect herself from them. So with the use of the e-collar (really just a shock collar let's be honest), I punished her every time she showed a fear response at Off Leash K-9's direction. This definitely changed her behavior, but rather than helping her feel more comfortable with the things that scared her, we instead punished her for being afraid and taught her to hide her fear responses. I wish I had looked at the science behind dog behavior, because I now know research shows that punishment through things like e-collars, buzz collars, spray bottles, etc. are incredibly counterproductive to changing dog behavior long term and they seriously traumatize the dog. I'm so very grateful to have met a Fear Free trainer who taught me about positive reinforcement. It has improved my relationship with my dog immensely and it has ultimately lead to the sustained behavior change I was looking for. Please do not waste your money on abusive, ignorant training through Off Leash K9.

After a few weeks of searching, we…read morefound a listing for Four Dog Adventures and I shot off an email to find out if they serviced our neighbourhood. My husband and I don't even have the words to fully describe how amazing Sundara and her crew are. Sundara came over with Nat, our local walker and they met our beast, Gabby and Gabby's feline brother, Taz. It was a match made in heaven. Due to our schedules, Nat comes over a number of times per month and takes Gabby for walks or hikes. I think that one of my favourite things about the service is the "The Notebook". Gabby has a little notebook that we exchange notes with Nat on. We let her know if anything's going on with Gabby, and she in turn lets us know how the walk/hike went. She's so personable and her narrations always make us smile. We've also had the pleasure of having Jimmy come over when we needed a walk during Nat's off-time. Sundara's crew are simply fantastic, and she herself runs a brilliant business that we hope to be able to be part of for many years go come. HIGHLY recommended!! Yay for Four Dog Adventures!!
