Ensuring a calm stay while away!

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for animals as early as I can remember! I value animals as family members and respect their primal needs. I work hard to ensure all dogs/puppies have opportunities for mental and physical stimulation to reduce stress while their people are away. I am a certified dog trainer and trauma psychotherapist. I combine these skills to offer nurturing and calm environments for dogs and puppies of varying backgrounds.
