I've had a furrrrrocious love for animals my whole life and was fortunate to have grown up with many dogs, cats and horses. In 2000 I decided to make a huge career change to become a professional dog trainer and caregiver. Dogs are my favorite companions and I share my house openly with my own and my canine guests. There is nothing greater than watching all their personalities, how they interact with me and with each other. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In addition to care giving, I am a member of APDT (Association of Professional Dog Trainers) and offer classes in basic obedience, as well as all levels of agility, using positive reinforcement. I'm an avid agility competitor and have competed at the national level multiple times. Simply put, dogs are my passion!
