About the business
EXPERIENCE
My name is Richard Hopkins, I am the owner and operator of Best In Home Dog Services. I have lived with and been around dogs my entire life; doing basic training with family dogs growing up was my introduction to what would turn into my dream career. I began dog walking and sitting when I was 21, and I would take every opportunity to practice and improve my dog training skills. The next step was finding a quality mentor, which came in the form of Cathryn Jurewicz. Cathy has 26+ years of experience including obedience, agility, rally, and CGC courses/evaluations. I apprenticed under her for six months, followed by another four years working together and learning every day. Throughout my apprenticeship and after, the primary learning sources were B.F. Skinner, Karen Pryor, and Patricia McConnell's works. Since my first job as a dog trainer, I went on to be a manager and head dog trainer at two separate daycare and boarding facilities; I designed and ran dog training programs at each location, neither of which ever had a training program in the past. The in home dog training program was launched while I was contracting with the daycare and boarding facilities, and I registered Best In Home Dog Services in April of 2015. I have trained, walked, and cared for more dogs than I can count; this has given me extensive experience with most breeds, many of them with special behavioral or medical needs.

So far Best In Home and Richard have been awesome! Richard is very professional and takes the time to really listen to us and our puppy Daisy. I was hesitant in hiring someone to come to our house but so far even though we have only had one lesson this has been the best decision we have made so far since we got Daisy. I highly recommend Richard and his pricing versus the time he has spent with us so far has been worth every penny.
