I just moved to the area for a grad program after graduating from Stony Brook University with a bachelor's in psychology with honors. I love both cats and dogs and have experience here on Rover. I'm dependable, responsive, and will do my best to accommodate your fur baby's needs. I have many years of experience working with humans with developmental and/or physical disabilities. This work has made me more mindful. I am also a trained crisis counselor and so if things were ever to go wrong, I am trained to keep my cool and to utilize tools that deescslate precarious situations. Lastly, I am passionate about staying fit and would gladly take your pupper for long walks so that s/he gets enough exercise as well.
