About My Business

I’ve been working with dogs as a hobby for over 20 years. I grew up training my first dog in both obedience and agility, and I currently have three rescue dogs of my own. I love dogs, cats, and critters of all kinds! Wondering about the name? Gambit was one of my former dogs who has since crossed the rainbow bridge. Whenever she was being naughty, I would jokingly say “dog Gambit!” to her.

I am happy to provide your dog with a safe environment in your own home. I’m an expert at keeping dogs from bolting out the door, and my years of dog training experience help me to understand your pets’ needs.

I’m well-versed in giving topical and oral medications and basic grooming such as brushing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning, so please let me know if you’d like any of those things done during my visit. I am comfortable using flat collars, head collars, martingale collars, or harnesses (no-pull or otherwise), but I will not use prong or shock collars.

I love training and playing with dogs. I also love long walks around the neighborhood or in nature. I’m happy to play tug, fetch, or whatever other games your dog enjoys. I’m used to high drive dogs, but I’m just as happy watching a couch puptato.

For walks and drop-ins, I'm typically available for lunchtime (11am-1pm) and/or after work (4-6pm). I do need at least a few hours of notice for walks and drop-ins. For house sitting, I can work anywhere with a reliable wifi connection. I’m available to walk your pup 3-4 times per day if I’m staying in your house. When I'm house sitting, my partner takes care of our dogs.

What my clients say:

"Autumn with DogGambit was amazing! She took such wonderful care of my reactive rescue pup, Gus. I felt confident being out of town and knowing he was in excellent hands. She sent twice daily updates, including videos playing with him and doing scent work when it was too cold outside. And she took excellent care of my home, attending to small details to clean up at the end of her stay. Grateful to have found our go-to pet sitter after just moving to the area. "
