About Me Hi! I’m a certified dog trainer (CPDT-KA) and experienced pet care professional with a lifelong love of animals. I believe every dog deserves individualized attention, a predictable routine, and lots of love—whether I’m stopping by for a walk or caring for them while you’re away. Your dog will be treated like family. I’m friendly, reliable, and deeply respectful of each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether you have a high-energy pup, a shy senior, or a special-needs dog, I tailor my care to make them feel safe, seen, and loved. ⸻ Walks with Purpose Walks are so much more than potty breaks! They’re a chance to exercise, explore, and enjoy the world. I make every walk engaging and enriching, not rushed. I can also reinforce basic manners on leash, and offer optional add-on leash training sessions for dogs that need more structured help. Just ask! ⸻ Pet Sitting That Feels Like Home When you travel, your pet deserves to stay in the comfort of their own home with someone you trust. I offer drop-in visits and overnight stays, always sticking closely to your pet’s routine. You can expect regular updates, happy photos, and lots of snuggles and playtime for your pet. ⸻ Experience & Specialties ✔ CPDT-KA certified trainer ✔ Experience with senior dogs & medication administration ✔ Comfortable with special-needs pets ✔ FDM (Family Dog Mediator) certified ✔ Years of house sitting & drop-in experience ✔ Leash training available as an add-on service ⸻ Whether your dog is tiny, huge, or somewhere in between, I’d love to meet them. Let’s make your dog’s day a great one—even when you’re not home.
