» Meet Marta Wajngarten

ABOUT THIS EXPERT

The goal of this blog is to help you learn to identify canine behaviour patterns and apply that knowledge to how you relate to your dog. Marta's goal is to help you have a better-behaved and well-adjusted dog.

What started out as a part-time job walking dogs quickly evolved into a successful dog-care business for a girl who always loved dogs, but was never allowed to have one.

Marta is now the operator of Rover and Rover Pet Services in Toronto, which provides doggy daycare, boarding and walking services in central Toronto. She has spent the past 10 years caring for and training dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities.

A keen interest in dog behaviour and problem solving has resulted in Marta developing a special relationship with her clients and their four-footed additions to the family. Marta's goal is to return her canine customers to their masters happy and well-behaved.

When not working with dogs and their owners at Rover and Rover, Marta spends a lot of her free time on motorcycles, both off-road and on the track. She is registered to race with the Southern Ontario Racing Association.
