Choose Wisely. Get Prepared.
Fifteen years ago, Nikki began her journey in dog behavior at a shelter, driven by a clear mission: to eliminate the heartache of families having to rehome their beloved pets. This mission stems from a fundamental question: What are the essential ingredients for a successful, lifelong bond between families and their dogs? After years of helping clients navigate their challenges as a Certified Dog Behvior Consultant and facing her own adoption hurdles, she experienced a transformative ‘aha’ moment.
Preparation Pup was born from this expertise, thoughtfully designed for discerning moms like you. As a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant and dedicated Dog Adoption Doula, Nikki provides a premium, personalized coaching experience that empowers you to make the best decisions for your family. This isn't just about generic advice—it's about offering you tailored, high-end services that guide you at every step, ensuring you bring home a dog that effortlessly complements your lifestyle.
Choosing a dog is about more than just finding a pet; it’s about creating a harmonious family dynamic from the very start. Nikki's goal is to help you avoid the stress and heartache of mismatched relationships.
With 15 years of experience in dog behavior and her role as your Dog Adoption Doula, she is committed to accompanying you through every aspect of this journey—from preparing your family for a new furry member, to finding the perfect match, and ensuring your home is ready for your future dog.
