I’ve been dog-obsessed since I was eight years old, when I would paper-clip the pages of my favorite breeds in a Westminster guide to dogs. Since then, I’ve helped raise, care for, and train at least five dogs of my own and within my family. I also volunteer with Austin Pets Alive! and have completed training in animal safety, dog handling, breed-specific care, behavior, and socialization. For more than a decade, I have cared for and walked dogs in Los Angeles, New York, and Austin. I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal I meet with the love, dignity, and respect they deserve. My experience as a yoga teacher also shapes the calm, patient, and compassionate approach I bring to caring for each pet. I follow each pet’s established routine and provide regular updates so you can relax while away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my highest priorities.
