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.

As always, Alexandra is so great with our pup. So communicative and caring towards him and us while we’re away from our fur baby.
