Hi, my name is LaKindra, but you can call me “Kindra” for short. I was born and raised in Southern California. Since I was young, I watched my dad train our family dog an American bulldog named Solider.
Watching him train inspired me to become a dog trainer. I have studied veterinary technology and spent over a decade handling several dogs. I got my start working within doggy day cares where I learned about dog behavior, how to supervise socialization, and general dog body language. I pride myself on knowing the first and last names of over a thousand dogs that have been in my care, it’s easy to do when you love them like your own!
Within my decade of experience in canine care I’ve supervised over 100+ dogs at a time in daycares, also groomed and cared for the physical health of all breeds, temperaments, and know all the tips and tricks for successful boarding stays. I often notice my furry friends out in public and it always makes my day!
My passion with dogs is to really train to help better communicate with them, being able to create a language and bond is what I thrive for! I’ll love your pup like it is my own, and I look forward to working with them in the future!
