I have 16 years experience as a dog owner, including 7 years volunteering at my hometown animal shelter, where I specialized in working with dogs to develop obedience skills to increase adoptability. I am also a proud cat mom and love animals of all kinds. I utilize positive behavior reinforcement, and as a dog walker aim to provide exercise and enjoyment as well as learning new skills and reinforcing good behavior, focusing on such skills as loose-leash walking, automatic sit, and not jumping. For in home visits or pet sitting, I believe in providing enrichment and companionship tailored to your pet's personality, likes and dislikes. I would love to spend time with your pet and make sure they get the care and attention they deserve!
