From Directory to Dialogue 🐾

The Next Chapter of a Canine Concierge

If you’ve been following me for a while, you might remember the “Dog Lover’s Directory” — my curated guide to the best dog-friendly services, products, and pros around.

For years, it lived on my website, where you could browse lists of trainers, walkers, vets, and specialty brands that met my high standards for care and quality.

But this year, I realized something: Most dog parents weren’t just looking for a simple list — they were looking for 1:1 guidance.

They wanted to ask questions.

They wanted personalized recommendations.

And most of all, they wanted to feel confident they were making the right decisions for their pups.

Substack offers something my old website couldn’t: connection.

Instead of a static directory, this space lets me:

• Share insights and updates directly with you via email
  — no algorithms, no scrolling required.

• Have real conversations through comments and chats.
  — it’s a place to talk, learn, and grow together.

• Offer 1:1 consultations so you can get tailored recommendations
  — from finding the right trainer to planning pet travel.

This new (and free!) space offers the same trusted guidance — now shared in a more personal, interactive way that centers on you and your dog’s journey, without any login required.

You no longer need to search through a long list on my website. Instead, you can:

1. Subscribe Instantly (it’s free to get updates and advice)

2. Book a 1:1 Session (if you want personalized guidance)

3. Join the conversation — share your experiences, ask questions, and connect with a community of thoughtful dog parents.

Think of it as moving from a directory you have to search → to a concierge who’s already in your inbox.

Over the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing:

• Updated recommendations for services and brands I trust

• Articles on training, travel, wellness, and enrichment

• Behind-the-scenes insights from my work with clients and Vegas Pet Pros

All of my past blog & podcast posts are now conveniently archived here on Substack, so you can easily revisit your favorite reads and resources!
