I’ve always been good with animals, from dogs to snakes, and I plan on making it my full time career. I’ve been called a “dog whisperer” before and grew up with more animal friends than human ones. As a certified dog trainer, I understand the ins and outs of canine behavior and body language, so I can get along with and manage dogs with a wide variety of quirks and personalities. My interest in training was spurred after adopting a pit mix. Knowing the breed’s reputation and temperament, it was important for her to be as trained as possible. My abilities only improved after purchasing my deaf dog, Blixen, who proved to be an engaging challenge! Nowadays I can take both of them off leash anywhere with complete confidence. As a cat person, I also love spending time with feline friends! With three cats at home, and growing up with a cat almost always in the house, how could I not? In the past I have also had mice, gerbils, and rats, so there’s no animal I’m uncomfortable with.
