Spotty Paws
Pet Services, LLC
Using training techniques based in science and fun to build a stronger bond between you and your pet!
My approach
I approach pet care from the perspective that our animal companions deserve to feel safe, healthy, and excited to see us! I work hard to help you and your pet build a stronger bond through clear communication and fun!
Enrichment Plans
Animals thrive when they get to activate their bodies and their brains each day. Every training package includes either a basic or advanced enrichment plan to keep your pup physically and mentally fit! To learn more about enrichment, check out the blog post “What is Enrichment, Anyway?”

“After Covid, my beagle seemed down and lonely when I returned to work. She also just needed a midday walk for her little bladder. Irene is very reliable and loving with my dog. She always sends an update a few minutes after her walk, often takes photos, and gives her treats to encourage good behavior. I completely trust her to enter my home and lock it up afterwards. She has even brought in packages for me. My 4-legged baby and I both give Irene 2 paws up!”
