It all starts with a dog, like many great stories do. 

Taylor came into Arielle’s life in August of 2018, and she is now a permanent member of her family. She has gone from a dog who Arielle believed would do best never to be around dogs and to be with a family who led a quiet life with few visitors, to being a staple in the business. She attends classes, helps Arielle work with dogs, and fits into Arielle’s life wonderfully, but more importantly, safely. Taylor, like many dogs, was not given proper rules and structure and this made her life very small. 

Arielle’s drive for helping dogs has only grown over the years. Taylor’s success story is just one of many that Arielle has played a pivotal part in. She is proud to have built an incredible team at Village Dogs that share a love for dogs and a passion for giving them the best life through balanced training.

Every dog who walks through the door becomes a part of the Village Dogs family, and we’re always excited to meet new faces and go on new adventures.

Meet Arielle Lewis, owner and founder of Village Dogs. What started as a dog walking company in 2018 quickly expanded to a full-service facility offering dog training, daycare, and boarding.

Arielle has owned dogs her whole life and has always had a passion for animals. When she was a teenager, she started taking a bigger interest in the behavior of her two family dogs, and made it her mission to teach them to safely walk on leashes. At this time it never occurred to her how many owners were struggling or that this could ever be a career. Over the years, she offered advice to family and friends on how to work with their own dogs. When her dog Taylor came into her life, everything changed.
