About Movement & Manners
Welcome to Movement & Manners. I’m passionate about providing structured, thoughtful, and loving care for dogs of all types. I offer dog walking, running with dogs, hiking, enrichment visits, and training, all designed with purpose and intention. I proudly work with all dogs, including those often labeled as “too much.”
With years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, including large breeds and rescue dogs, I bring calm leadership, clear communication, and a deep understanding of canine behavior to every session. I focus on purposeful exercise, mental enrichment, and realistic training that supports confident, well-balanced dogs.
If you’re looking for someone who sees your dog as an individual and is committed to their well-being, safety, and progress, you’re in the right place.
Movement & Manners is fully insured for your peace of mind.
Meet Laura
I’m Laura, the owner and operator of Movement & Manners. My work with dogs is rooted in years of hands-on experience supporting dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, with a special focus on large breeds and dogs that need more structure, movement, and understanding.
I’ve spent years working with rescue dogs and dogs considered “too much,” helping them develop confidence, better manners, and healthier outlets for their energy. I believe dogs thrive when their physical and mental needs are met through purposeful exercise, enrichment, and clear, calm communication.
My approach is practical, thoughtful, and realistic. I focus on meeting dogs where they are, creating structure without force, and helping pet parents feel supported and confident in the process. Every dog I work with is treated as an individual, and every plan is tailored to support long-term balance, not quick fixes.
