Highlights
Pet care experience
I’m already obsessed with your pet
You won’t find anyone who loves dogs and cats more than me! I’ve had pets my entire life and been an active volunteer at animal shelters in Detroit and Charlotte for over 20 years. I currently volunteer weekly with Humane Society Charlotte and have been trained by their dog trainer and staff in dog training, dog walking, shelter enrichment and intake admin, and I'm certified as a Fear Free Shelter Animal caretaker and pet CPR. I also walk the dogs at the Char-Mack Animal Care & Control shelter. I love any breed or size and have experience handling all energy, affection, size and temperament levels. I'm skilled in walking multiple dogs, training them on basic commands and leash walking from a lifetime of doing it! *If your dog needs walking out of your apartment to another floor, please book dogwalking. Thank you.

Safety, trust & environment
I'm a believer in positive reinforcement and using Fear Free accredited professionals. I'm passionate about starting starting every animal relationship with compassionate leadership as we grow together. I'm also very passionate about animal rescue and currently own a 4 yo Shih Tzu puppy mill rescue, so I understand the roller coaster of shelter and senior dogs. I have a place in my heart for senior dogs since I've had 6 dogs through their end of life. I maintain a calm and collected, but very loving relationship with all the dogs I meet! I always do slow, leashed, neutral territory introductions with dogs. I know the signs of a dog or cat who needs space or other tensions, and how to de-escalate situations. Redirecting with treats/toys/attention is a key tool for me to keep all dogs safe, and I understand cats' temperments to help them feel safer with someone new. Your dog will always be flat leashed with me outside of the home, as well as buckled or crated in the back if transported by car. If you'd like me to work with your dogs on leash walking or commands, let me know during our meet & greet.

Schedule
I'm bringing 20+ years of animal shelter volunteering and ownership to a dream job working with dogs and all pets! I typically work full-time remotely in social media, but I'm laid off work.
