Training & Education

Understanding dog behavior requires a deep understanding of their evolved psychology. Especially post-COVID, many dogs are struggling with anxiety, behavioral imbalance, and other concerning or disruptive behaviors.

It’s OK to be overwhelmed - you are not alone. Often the solutions we think should work, do not. Applying human psychology to a dog is a sure recipe for failure, as a dog is essentially evolved from domesticated, wild wolves. Dogs still require a great deal of patience and commitment, but with the RIGHT techniques and basic understanding of dog psychology, your path to improvement comes into focus faster than you might think. During this process you’re not only helping your dog transition into a more consistently healthy mental state, but creating a stronger and more meaningful bond between you and your pup.

Let us help you onto that path, as a calm confident human role-model for your pet.

Drop-In Home Visits

Being a pet-owner is a big commitment, and providing them with care and attention around the clock can be hard for students & educators, busy professionals, frequent travelers, and many others who cannot be home all day or every day. For pets who are calm and balanced, sometimes a visit from a friendly human is all it takes to keep them in a good place, let them out for a potty-break, top off their food and water, and hang out for a bit of belly-rubbin’.

Drop-ins can be arranged seperate from or in addition to, walks and exercise. Got kitties, bunnies, turtles, fish, creepy-crawlies?? Not a problem - we’ll make time for everyone.

30-60 mins |  Starting @ $55

Walks & Exercise

Exercise, exercise, exercise… the 1st pillar of a healthy, happy, and emotionally-balanced dog! Most dogs need a minimum of two walks per day at 30 minutes each and twice as much for larger and/or higher-energy dogs. There is no substitute for daily walks, the walk is an essential requirement for all dogs - but we also enjoy scheduling time at the dog park or playing fetch with your furry friends as a fun way to treat them after walking.

INSTINCT Dog Services®, LLC, offers custom dog-walking and exercise services to a variety of owner’s busy lives and schedules. 

30-90 mins |  Starting @ $55 

Day & Night Home Stays & Extended Care

There will always come a time when we have to leave home for work, for fun, or for a thousand other reasons - and cannot take our beloved pets with us. This is a source of great anxiety for many pet-owners - leaving us feeling either trapped and unable to leave home for extended periods of time, or suffering from guilt for leaving animals they love in boarding when they must.

Overnight home stays and extended care options are an excellent choice for pets requiring extra care and attention, or for owners who just want to spoil their pets with extra love in their absence.

Per night |  $250

Pet Chauffeur

Sometimes you just need an extra pair of hands or wheels. Can’t take your furry friend to doggie day care, the groomers or pick them up from the vet? Not a problem, we’ve got you covered! Your pets will drive in style and safely secured throughout the ride to their destination.

Pet Chauffeur service can be arranged for any reason or need, within a 20 mile radius.

One-way, Round-trip |  Starting @ $75
