Cumulatively I have 3.5 years of experience at a dog training facility. I helped care for dogs, supervised their play and potty sessions as a large group, and helped monitor dogs with special needs. This job gave me the unique opportunity to work with dogs with a variety of behavioral issues. Reactivity, aggression, fear, OCD, anxiety, etc. While I always take every dog seriously, I have become more comfortable than most with handling dogs who have these issues. I am not a trainer, however I have been trained thoroughly in dog handling regardless of the situation. My experience speaks for itself. I take things at your pup's pace and I work to set them up for success in whatever way I can. Aside from professional experience, I helped pet/house sit for neighbors and relatives my whole life. I was often the go to teen for pet care. I spent a lot of my youth studying and reading about animals in general and loved learning about different dog breeds.
