Who We Are

RCD is a proud participant in 'PackPro' training for all employees. The PackPro educational program is specially designed for dog daycares and only focal point is on safe, positive group management and training with a pack of dogs. This training is different than a typical dog trainer program as managing a group of dogs is significantly different than managing one or two dogs, requiring a much greater awareness of dog behavior and interaction, as well as specialized safety protocols to keep everyone safe. All RCD staff are required to complete the full program that includes First Aid emergency care upon becoming an RCD team member.    

Owners

Leahland Hill

Leahland owns and operates Rose City Dogs with his amazing wife Gea. Leahland originally comes from the Event Production industry. Amongst his successful 20-year period of owning and operating events, he had the honor of producing in the Green Technology sector while working closely with then California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s administration, as well as Residential Building, and Senior Health & Wellness. 

While fighting his way back from a life changing event that left him partially blind, Leahland and his wife adopted two incredible Chocolate Labrador Retrievers. This family addition became a turning point for Leahland. He knows that he would not be here today without the love of his dogs and he wanted to give back. He soon changed career course as he realized that dog training and canine behavior were passions that he needed to follow.

For the last four years Leahland has owned and operated a small country boarding facility in Columbia County, further deepening his love and knowledge of personalized dog care and solidifying his belief that all dogs need one on one love and attention. This belief is what drove Leahland to create Rose City Dogs “Small Batch Dog Care.”

Gea Hill

Gea grew up on a small farm working with all kinds of animals, then spent time working with Arabian show horses. Dogs have always been around and a part of her life as working partners. She has a deep love and understanding for dogs and their importance in our lives as part of our families. After exploring the corporate world, then in private practice as a wellness facilitator, she decided to come back full circle to working with animals. Combining her life experience and specialized training as a mediator, she believes it’s possible to offer our canine companions better living options to make sure they are living the healthiest life possible. She is a Certified Family Dog Mediator and is currently working towards specialized training with dog aggression and canine nutrition.
