Meet the Ower
Hi, I'm Shayla and I'm the crazy dog lady behind RCR!
I started my career with dogs nearly a decade ago working out of dog boarding facilities and veterinary clinics out west, which quickly progressed into an interest and career in dog training. I began my educational journey through Dogma Academy in Calgary, Alberta and moved back to Nova Scotia soon after receiving my certificate in dog behavior consulting in 2018. After moving to Nova Scotia, my parents gave me a little piece of heaven to call my own and I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. I began the process of designing and building my own facility from the ground up. In February of 2020 Rover Cove Resort was born. Since then, I've gone on to become one of eleven in the province to hold a Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge Assessed title through CCPDT, I am Fear Free Certified through Fear Free Pets, have completed the Aggression in Dogs Master Course, as well as many other continuing education courses, and am currently enrolled through one of the most prestigious dog training schools in the world, Karen Pryor Academy. My journey with dogs and behavior is forever evolving and I simply cannot get enough of this industry! Your dog, my passion ❤︎ |
