For the past 7 years, I’ve helped care for my grandpa’s hunting dogs every day and for the past 2 years I've been helping pet parents here on rover—feeding them, exercising them, and making sure they stay healthy and well-behaved. I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty, either—I’ve cleaned up plenty of messes along the way! I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and sizes, and I have hands-on experience with leash training and improving walking habits. I’m patient, calm, and good at reading animal behavior. While I’m not a certified dog trainer, I’m confident in my ability to teach basic commands using positive reinforcement—especially treats—because I’ve successfully trained my own dogs. Whether I’m caring for a high-energy pup or a shy dog who needs a little extra time to feel safe, I always do my best to make sure every pet feels comfortable, respected, and well-loved.
