What's UpDog?

Established in 2017 amid the charming streets of Lynbrook, NY, our company quickly became a beacon of excellence in the pet care landscape of Long Island. Guided by our founder, Eric Vissichelli, who began training dogs professionally in 2020, we embarked on a journey to redefine the dynamics between dogs and their human companions. At the heart of our philosophy lies a commitment to positive reinforcement training methods, rejecting the use of punitive tools like prong collars, choke collars, vibration collars, or shock collars. We firmly believe in fostering a collaborative and inclusive approach to dog training, celebrating diversity, respect, and kindness while empowering our clients to assume the roles of leaders, teachers, and best friends to their canine companions. We understand that the most effective learning occurs when dogs are happy and eager to participate, ensuring not only obedience but also a strong bond between owner and pet.

Beyond training, we extend our services to encompass dog walking, ensuring that every canine companion receives the exercise and attention they deserve. Additionally, we provide drop-in visits tailored for both dogs and cats, recognizing the importance of holistic pet care. Rooted in our profound belief in community service, we cherish the opportunity to enrich the lives of our Nassau County neighbors and their beloved pets. Fully certified and insured, we prioritize the protection and satisfaction of our clients, striving tirelessly to provide unparalleled care and support to every furry friend entrusted to our care.
