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.
