Animal Behavior Specialist

Pet care experience

Several college classes including, but not limited to Dog Emotion and Cognition @ Duke University, Animal Behaviour and Welfare @The University of Edinburgh, EDIVET@ The University of Edinburgh. I've also trained 5 service dogs, several pets, house sitted two special needs dogs for three months and owned and cared for several pets over the years. In addition to dogs I have training in livestock: chickens, cows, horses, and pigs. I will give your pets the very best. All dogs in my care receive specialized training in obedience, agility and/or protection. I am available 24/7 including holidays. Pets are treated like family and several rooms in the home are designed with dogs in mind. I also have training in animal assisted therapy. All incomes welcome. Thanks

Melinda is very responsible and takes great care of animals. She has trained my service dog and has taken care of my Dog Sage. I would highly recommend her and I trust her with my baby.

Melinda is very good with any animal. Melinda has a lot of patience and understanding of the animal. Melinda sits with my service dog and I would recommend her to anyone.
