Tim has worked with dogs since 2019 professionally.  He started dog sitting after moving to NYC in 2019, as an opportunity to spend time with dogs since he didn’t have one of his own at the time!  After building a loyal client base through 2019 & 2020, Tim created Best Pawtner LLC in 2021, specializing in tailored 1:1 care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments.  After 2 years of building this brand and an incredible team of 10+ sitters, Tim decided to pivot and focus his energy into dog training.

Over the past few years, Tim has raised and trained his own Labrador puppy, worked with leaders in the field, and completed certification courses to further his knowledge on dog behavioral training approaches.  Some of these experiences include: shadowing Trish McMillan & Lydia Desroche and certification through Karen Pryor Academy. 

Tim focuses on positive reinforcement training and tailors his approach to meet each client where they are at.  This means, Tim likes to find practical and realistic training solutions that fit you and your pup’s lifestyle.
