I grew up with a 120lb Rhodesian Ridgeback, and I have been in love with dogs ever since. From around age 12 I took care of my friends and neighbors dogs when they were out of town. I helped raise my sister's puppy and adopted my own pup 3.5 years ago. I love to go hiking, running, walking, and playing with dogs. I also love to cuddle up and to just give some TLC to them. I enjoy getting to know each dog's individual personality and being able to cater care and love to their different needs no matter their age or shyness. I have a situationally dog reactive dog and have worked with her over the past year and a half to vastly improve this. I am very comfortable working with dog reactive dogs and maintaining boundaries to keep everyone safe. I am also happy to use what has worked for my dog to help your dog feel more confident and secure in the world!
