Meet Connie!

Connie Fazio is the owner and operator of Asheville’s very first mobile dog gym! She has always felt a strong connection to our canine friends, but has exclusively worked with animals since moving to Asheville in 2016. All of her friends know her as the “dog whisperer” and she is more often than not found on the floor snuggling puppies during dinner parties.

Connie was most recently a Clinic Mentorship Trainer at the ASPCA Spay/Neuter Alliance where she expertly trained other spay/neuter clinic staff to gently handle animals in their charge, decreasing their stress levels while providing the highest level of veterinary care.

Prior to her time at the ASPCA, Connie worked with senior dogs and dogs recovering from injuries at a local water rehabilitation facility, where she bonded with both the dogs and their owners.

K9 Workout is a dream realized for Connie, and a culmination of her years of experience, where she has the opportunity to provide a service to busy local pet owners who want the best for their babies, both physically and mentally. Her techniques ensure that your dog is not only building physical and mental health, but is also growing in confidence and security when interacting with the world around them. She guarantees a safe, positive experience for your 4-legged friends and hopes that they have some fun along the way!
