Pawsitive Begininngs was great with our pup Kylo. Unfortunately we are moving but during the short time he was with Lateria he grew so much. He is a social dog but only within his circle. Being at Pawsitive Beginnings he has been more receptive to other dogs and has learned boundaries. Would definitely recommend Lateria. So much patience! Thank you for working with Kylo.

I met the owner of Pawsitive Beginnings Pet Care four years ago. My dog, Brinkley and I took to Lateria instantly. She is very caring, is an expert on pet care, training and behavior, and kept me at ease by providing updates and videos while Brinkley was in her care. I have used her for pet sitting and training at her home for my dog. On several occasions, I've had to go on emergency travel. Each time, Pawtastic Beginnings has been able to accommodate my needs for immediate pet sitting. I truly appreciate the flexibility and quick turnaround time for communication that Lateria provides. I would highly recommend Pawtastic Beginnings Pet Care for pet owners that are looking for professional, exemplary, and affordable training, day care, walks, learning and pet sitting for their fur babies.

Pawsitive Beginnings has “Top Notch, Top rated” dog services. I have been using Lateria’s dog services for a couple years now. In fact, my husband and I even moved out of Durham and now live in Holly Springs and still drive out to Lateria to use her services for our pups. Other than our family, she is the only person we trust to watch our pups. It is so worth the drive about 45 minutes each way to Lateria and Peaches house. We have an older Chorkie and an almost 4-year-old German Shepard. Lateria has been watching our German Shepard since she was about 4 months old. Our German Shepard can be timid and gets nervous very easily. Lateria’s skills and knowledge around dogs and dog training really benefit our dogs during their overnight stays. My husband and I can travel whenever and wherever knowing that our dogs are in good hands. My pups love Lateria and her dog Peaches, and I highly recommend her services. In fact, one of my colleagues at the University needed someone to watch their dog for 3 weeks, and their dog needs someone with expertise and knowledge of dogs’ behavior to watch it. Right away, I referred them to Lateria for booking.
Very helpful and informative with training of your dog! The training walks are so helpful.
I was very impressed! Did not know what to expect but in three walks Sebastian was responding and our training goals were met. Will definately refer to others and use again.
